Shah Rukh Khan's fans are excited to see the star host the International Indian Film Academy Awards (IIFA) this year in Abu Dhabi. IIFA is set to celebrate its 24th edition from September 27 to September 29. Shah Rukh Khan flew to Yas Island, Abu Dhabi in the early hours of Thursday and received a special welcome from his hotel, the Hilton Abu Dhabi Yas Island. What was special about this welcome? All things gourmet and exclusive! IIFA shared pictures of SRK's room on their official Instagram handle.
The room was full of delicious desserts and savoury treats, customised for SRK. The caption on the post read, "Sneak peek into Shah Rukh Khan's room." The carousel features a huge photo cake with pictures of SRK's films -- Raees, Pathaan, Ra-One, Zero, Dunki and Don 2.
