Rapper Yo Yo Honey Singh, who was away from the limelight for over a year, will take to stage at the second edition of the Times of India Film Awards (TOIFA) in Dubai. He says he is looking forward to a possible interaction with superstar Salman Khan at the gala.
The rapper, whose real name is Hirdesh Singh, has shared screen space with a string of A-listers like Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone and Amitabh Bachchan, but has never got a chance to perform with the "Wanted" star.
"I have performed with Shah Rukh bhai and Jacqueline Fernandez in the past, but not with Salman bhai. So I am looking forward to interacting with him along with my performance, if he is in the audience," Singh, who turned 33 on Tuesday, said in a statement.
To be held on March 18 at the Dubai International Stadium, TOIFA will see power-packed performances by Ranveer Singh, Varun Dhawan and Kareena Kapoor Khan among others. The special evening will see actors Parineeti Chopra and Riteish Deshmukh as co-hosts.
