00:00It's amazing, isn't it? Because for all of us, I mean, I did go for one kind of masked-up one in India,

00:06but it just didn't feel like the same thing.

00:08I'm also super happy that we're doing it at this time in a place like Dubai,

00:13where, you know, everyone is vaccinated and we had to do like multiple checks to even get in.

00:18So that, like, gives you a bit of peace of mind.

00:23I love actually going to a new place and trying out the local talent in hair and makeup

00:29and beauty. And I think everyone knows Dubai and the Middle East is famous for beauty.

00:34And, you know, so I don't like have an entourage.

00:37And, you know, it's just me and my manager, basically.

00:40Today's velvet, tomorrow's leather. We're going goth.

00:43Leather's never appropriate unless you're like in Berlin or like in the Norwegian goth culture,

00:49which is where it originated.

00:51But when a Tamil girl does goth and she has to do it in any weather, well, you know,

00:57it's a sacrifice worth making.

01:00Respected members of the media, all my dear friends,

01:09I'd like to take this opportunity to thank the owner of Delhi Broom, Mr. Ismail Sajid,

01:16and thank Sajid's family for hosting one of the biggest entertainment nights of UAE,

01:23which is tomorrow. And I'm immensely pleasured to be here.

01:28I'm so happy. I'm so excited for the performance tomorrow.

01:35And I'm proud of Film Faire. I'm proud of Urvashi.

01:42We will be performing with Sajid Bibi on stage tomorrow.

01:44I think it's one of the biggest nights in UAE.

01:48Most celebrated nights where we're going to celebrate, you know,

01:51lots of entertainment and cinema, music, of course.

01:56And then we also have a really big Arab superstar,

01:58Mohammad Ramadan, who's going to be giving his electrifying performance.

02:02So, yes, we're really excited. And it's for the very first time

02:05I will be performing on Arabic music.

02:08Till now, I've always performed in Bollywood music, but very first time.

02:11So I think it's a great mix, you know, to be able to collaborate together

02:15and bring both the worlds together, Bollywood and the African world together.

02:19So I think it's a great bonus.
