SRK's absence at the forthcoming IIFA is generating a lot of anxiety amongst his fans.
IIFA 2012 will be held from June 7-9 in Lion City, Singapore. The event will be special for more reasons than one.
Rekha will be felicitated for her 'Outstanding Achievement in Indian Cinema' at the do while Shahid and Farhan Akhtar are slated to host the show. Shahid is even going to pay a tribute to south cinema as he will be dancing on South songs choreographed by Prabhu Deva.
The otherwise most popular superstar anchor SRK will however skip the event altogether. Shah Rukh's close friend confirmed his absence saying, "There have been rumours doing the rounds that Shah Rukh Khan will be attending the IFFA ceremony in Singapore this year. Unfortunately these rumours are completely baseless. Shah Rukh Khan is leaving for London this weekend, he is going there for the shooting of Yash Chopra's next and will be joined by his family. His kids Aryan and Suhana have their vacation and like every year will be spending it in London this year too.
The rumours of Shah Rukh and his family being at IFFA has got many of his fans excited and they have been making constant inquires but this is to clarify to everyone that Shah Rukh is in London shooting for Yash Chopra. He will be joined by Katrina Kaif and Anushkha Sharma a few days later."
Salman is however most likely to attend the IIFA this year. He is currently shooting for Ek Tha Tiger in Bangkok for the final schedule of the film with Katrina Kaif.
