Bollywood, Hollywood stars to perform at Filmfare, Zee awards New Delhi, Feb. 25. (UNI): The film awards season is upon us again. Lending glitz and glamour to this season of the film awards will be a host of Bollywood stars who will exude their "charm" at this year's edition of the Filmfare and Zee awards. It will be a star-studded week for viewers and the audience of these shows as the organisers of the two awards functions have "left no stone unturned" to rope in some of the 'favourite' stars among cinegoers. For example, Saturday's Filmfare awards show, the most popular among the film awards in India, will feature performances by "Bollywood's most charming and graceful actress" Madhuri Dixit and the charming Abhishek Bachchan at its awards night, trade sources said. It will be Madhuri's first public performance after a gap of nearly six years. The actress last appeared in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's 'Devdas', a performance which won her a lot of accolades from audiences and critics alike. Also present at the awards function along with Madhuri, currently in India on a two month vacation along with her sons, will be her husband. Trade sources said Madhuri's performance will be choreographed by her favourite choregrapher Saroj Khan (who also choregraphed her dances in 'Devdas').
The Filmfare wards function will also have a performance by Shilpa Shetty's sister and Bollywood actor Shamita Shetty, who will be paying a tribute to the late Parveen Babi.
