Abu Dhabi: Shahid Kapoor shares his excitement about taking the #IIFA2027 stage by storm “IIFA has been a special part of my journey over the years… as an actor, a host and a performer. Some of my most memorable moments have happened on that stage, and there’s always an incredible energy when audiences from around the world come together to celebrate Indian cinema. I’m really excited to return to Yas Island for the 27th Edition of the IIFA Awards. Abu Dhabi has become a fantastic home for IIFA, and I’m looking forward to being back on that stage. I can’t wait to bring the energy, music and madness back to IIFA and make this edition one to remember.”
