The International Indian Films Awards (IIFA) are always happening in foreign countries. The last year it was Yorkshire and this year it’s Bangkok. Why Bankgkok? In this link Amitabh Bachchan, the brand ambassador of the IIFA says:
The idea is to move to different parts of the universe, to try and make this a global effort; to build bridges rather than just make this another awards ceremony.
Does India too belong to some part of the universe?
The link further says:
Director Karan Johar will host the IIFAs award ceremony. Actors Akshay Kumar, Kareena Kapoor, and Govinda are confirmed to attend. The highlight will be the premiere of Sarkar Raj, the Godfather remake, which reunites all three Bachchans – Amitabh, his son Abhishek and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan – after their last screen appearance in Bunty aur Babli.
