As Bryan Adams prepares to visit India for his five-city Ultimate Tour, the buzz is that the legend of Indian cinema, Amitabh Bachchan, and South star Prabhas are all set to host a bash for him in Mumbai and Hyderabad respectively.

According to a source, the parties will take place post his performances in the two cities and will be attended by hand-picked celebrities. The insider tells us, “Initially, his management team wasn’t keen on any sort of welcome party since Bryan wanted to go on a sightseeing expedition as he is visiting India after a long gap (he was last here in 2011 for the Bare Bones Tour). But, the promoters have confirmed a celebrity gathering.”

We also hear that the likes of Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone, Alia Bhatt, Ranbir Kapoor and Farhan Akhtar have shown interest in attending the concerts. What’s more, Arjun Kapoor and Parineeti Chopra are also expected to promote their film, Namaste England, on the tour. The Summer Of 69 hitmaker will take the stage in Ahmedabad, New Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad and Bengaluru in October 2018 in support of his current 21-track compilation, Ultimate.
