Hundreds gathered in the lobby of the Fairmont Royal York Hotel to welcome the King Khan, one of the most popular Bollywood stars.

Making his return after a IIFA six years, Shah Rukh came despite knee injury, and broke into an impromptu jig just for the fans the moment he came into the hotel's premises. For a lot of fanatics, had a glimpse of the "lifetime opportunity". People flew to Los Angeles, Montreal, Chicago and even Afghanistan, among other things, right now, which can be "as close as it gets" to SRK.

While the Shah Rukh magic continued in all the charm, and his friend-turned-enemy of Salman Khan's debut co-production "Chiller Party" kicks off with IIFA Film Festival, but sans Salman. The actor had to attend the event, but could not because of his shooting schedule for "bodyguard".

Raj Kapoor on the street baptism took place on day two of IIFA. Brampton Mayor Susan Fennell was a popular Welcome to the Kapoor family - the widow of Raj Krishna Raj Kapoor, his sons, Randhir, Rishi and Rajiv and daughter-in-law Ritu, Reema and Neetu, because he unvelied poster that read Raj Kapoor Crescent.

When I saw the models and the fusion of fashion and music creations Indian designers Sabyasachi Mukherjee Rajesh Pratap Singh, Vikram Phadnis and Canada Bay clothing store, larger than life sashayed down the ramp, the music director trio Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy plays a medley of his songs in the background.

Show Stopper as Brett Lee, Rahul Khanna, Zayed Khan, Neha Dhupia and Sonakshi Sinha, retro performance Dia Mirza, Mallika Sherawat dance a cheeky, energetic, RDB, and shows the Canadian rockers rock mix qawalli Sonu Niigaam captivated audience.

The last day saw the two worlds together, as Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy, lyricist Javed Akhtar and Vishal Bharadwaj composers Salim Merchant, and the music workshop to share and promote the music of both countries. After an interactive session the audience Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy and Javed have come together to live, and Salim Merchant create gave an impromptu piano performance.

Shah Rukh had heard cheers and "Slumdog Millionaire", the actor Anil Kapoor, as she ushered the guest of honor at a surprise show, Oscar-winner Hilary Swank. Actor Cuba Gooding Jr. made a surprise element to an event where the star power and fan turnout was another issue, which has seen IIFA.

The biggest show sparkled with brilliant performances, prices and distribution of Bollywood magic. But one hopes the buzz will translate IIFA caused by increased tourism and business opportunities in both countries.
