On September 17, Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, Abhishek Bachchan, Sonu Sood, Boman Irani and Vivan Shah begin their Happy New Year(HNY) ‘Slam’ tour.
Interestingly Madhuri Dixit joins the HNY world tour specially on request from Shah Rukh Khan though she is no part of the HNY cast.
A member of the HNY team spills the beans, “Shah Rukh was keen to broaden the entertainment base for our performances across the US from September 17. We first go to Houston, then New Jersey, Washington DC, Chicago and finally San Jose. Since Madhuri has a fan base in the US Shah Rukh suggested we should have her as part of the entourage.”
When pressed to reveal how much Ms Dixit had charged the team member quipped, “She didn’t come cheap, I can tell you that.”
Apparently Deepika who plays a dancer in Happy New Year would be performing some of her stuff from the film on stage while Madhuri would be performing her numbers from Dil To Paagal Hai and Devdas with Shah Rukh.
