Khan said IIFA is not just an award show, but a celebration of films.
“IIFA and I go back a long, long way. I have been part of this journey since its early years, and every time IIFA calls, there is a special feeling because it is not just an awards show, it is a celebration of our films, our people and the audiences,” he said in a statement.
“I have performed at IIFA across the years, but coming back to Abu Dhabi always feels different. I have a deep connection with this city, and some very special memories here,” he added.
The IIFA Awards 2027 will be hosted by Karan Johar and Varun Dhawan, while the IIFA Digital Awards 2027 will be hosted by Pankaj Tripathi and Ali Fazal.
