Kareena Kapoor's act will be one of the highlights of the IIFA event to be held in Macau next month. The actress is reportedly being paid a bomb for her performance at the event. In fact, she is learning the belly dancing for the event.
It seems that Kareena will be performing the 'Marjani' number from Billu Barber and is planning to enhance the number with some belly dancing. It's hardly a problem for her that she knows nothing about belly dancing as she will be taking lessons from Shiamak Davar, who is choreographing the act for IIFA. Kareena is going all out to ensure that her act is the showstopper of the event. The idea is to give the number a total Arabian feel to the song and that's where belly dancing comes in. Manish Malhotra has been roped in to design the actress's costume for the number. It is believed that designer will be working with satin and silk, all in golden colour to give her the look of an Arabian princess. The actress is believed to have become a little choosy about where she performs, but she definitely feels that the IIFA platform is big enough for her. Incidentally, this will be her third performance in a row at the event. Boyfriend Saif Ali Khan will also be present at the event with his film Love Aaj Kal, his maiden production.
