Shahid Kapoor ditches IIFA for film

Mumbai, June 09: This year’s IIFA event at Macau seems to have ran into trouble as most of the A grade stars have backed out of the event. Saif-Kareena and Shahid won’t be attending the event while Priyanka and Hrithik will only make an appearance but not perform.

Shahid’s back-out at the last minute surprised us as just few days back the actor had confirmed the news about his performance at IIFA. Even the track on which he would be performing was declared.

Shahid revealed, “I was looking forward to performing at IIFA and showcasing Kaminey, however my commitment to my producer has to be honoured and I regret being unable to attend this year.”

A close friend of Shahid revealed, “The actor was looking forward to his performance at IIFA but the the dates could not be adjusted as 3 of his films (Kaminey, Pathshala & Yashraj Films untitled) are ready for release and there is patchwork shoot remaining for Ken Ghosh’s untitled film. Since the dates of IIFA were clashing with the dates he had committed to a producer, Shahid has had to pull out of IIFA this year.”

One thing is for sure with no Shahid and Hrithik performamce at IIFA, Bollywood fans around the globe will surely miss watching Bollywood’s best dancing heroes and their impeccable dancing…
