What could be a better way to pay tribute to an evergreen beauty and talented actress than opting for a performance on some of her greatest hit songs. So, it was when Priyanka Chopra paid a beautiful tribute to yesteryear actor Rekha at the 13th International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) Awards on Saturday.
Priyanka Chopra performed on some of Rekha's evergreen numbers before Rekha herself came on stage to receive special honours for outstanding achievement in Indian cinema at the ceremony, organised by Wizcraft International Entertainment.
Priyanka performed on the remixed version of In aakhon ki masti ke from Umrao Jaan, Salaam-e-Ishq meri jaan, Pyar do pyaar lo and Pardesiya. Later, the veteran actress herself joined Piggie Chops on stage and the two gave a naughty performance on 'Rafta Rafta'.
On receiving the honours, Rekha said, "I would like to dedicate this award to my producers who have inspired me and the young actors of our industry like Ranbir Kapoor, Sonakshi Sinha, Priyanka Chopra…who are super talented. I am proud that I continue to be a part of the film fraternity."
