Haasan, a multi hyphenate cinema personality who has worked across industries in India, said he is looking forward to the 2023 IIFA Awards.

"I am extremely honoured and grateful that I have been a part of many IIFAs and they are doing a great job promoting Indian cinema globally and this time I am being honoured at IIFA 2023 at Yas Island, Abu Dhabi. Excited to be present at the event," Haasan said in a statement.

Malhotra, whose credits include films such as 'Rangeela', 'Dil To Pagal Hai', and 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil', will also showcase an exclusive "old world charm meets the new world" collection at a fashion show as part of Sobha Realty IIFA Rocks, a sidebar event at IIFA.
