This is what Rana Daggubati posted:

During the press conference in Mumbai on Tuesday, Shah Rukh Khan told fellow host KJo, “Karan told me he won’t be rehearsing for hosting, he’ll do it on Zoom. He said, Bhai main Zoom pe kar lunga… main itna jaldi karta hu. Main toh itna hosting karta hu na.’ Chat show bhi host karta hai, film show bhi host karta hai… picture bhi toh bana mere bhai tu (make films also),'” said SRK jokingly, adding, “Kitna host karega tu.”

The line-up of events at IIFA will also include special performances by Rekha and Shahid Kapoor.
