While speculation is rife that Salman Khan and Jacqueline Fernandez will perform on a new track from their upcoming film, Race 3, at the Indian Premier League (IPL) finale, industry insiders tell mid-day that the organisers have also roped in Katrina Kaif and Kartik Aaryan. “They will have separate acts. Kartik will perform on Bom Diggy Diggy and Dil Chori from Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety. Katrina will dance to her hits from Tiger Zinda Hai (2017). Though the songs are still being finalised, Swag Se Swagat is sure to be on Katrina’s playlist,” says a source.

Aaryan and Kaif are prepping hard for the their respective acts by clocking in five hours of rehearsal daily. “The practise sessions are over and above their shoot schedules and brand commitments. Each act will be 10 minutes long.,” says the source.
