The rehearsal began with her taking directions from some of Shiamak Davar's trusted dancers. An hour later, at about 10 pm, Priyanka Chopra ended up taking charge of everything on the stage. She moved heavy props around, took calls on where everything and everyone, including Shah Rukh Khan, should be placed, and even tweaked a few dance steps.

While practicing for the nominations performance of the Zee Cine Awards in Macau, Hong Kong, till 6 am, Chopra, along with co-host Khan, looked like she was out to prove to those present backstage that acting isn't her only prowess.

PC-SRK"We've changed this step by the way Shah Rukh," said Chopra to the actor, who had probably returned to the undone stage from a smoke break.

The performance, which was to introduce Salman Khan's Bodyguard (2011) nomination, saw Chopra strutting around in aviators, with her arms flared resembling Lovely Singh's muscular avatar from the Siddique-directed film. Shah Rukh, meanwhile, was on a 'digging' spree as he kept muttering lines in an unusual, yet deliberately recognisable, accent. But in their defence, the duo's script included jokes on all the major films nominated — Rockstar, The Dirty Picture and so on.

Occasionally consulting with Davar, who sat on the side, PC decided that, the cut-outs of Munni, Sheila and Vidya Balan should enter before Shah Rukh in a certain sequence. "That would make for a nicer entry," announced the actor.

Incidentally, Chopra, along with the rest of the film fraternity enjoyed anonymity over the weekend as they walked around The Venetian Hotel and made occasional rounds to the casino.

However, on Saturday, the evening on which the event concluded, loads of Indians made their way into the hotel property and hovered around the venue hoping to catch a glimpse of the stars.

Evening of digs and tributes
After IIFA, Shah Rukh Khan practised to get the moves right for Bodyguard's introduction. His comic performance during the rehearsal and the script included several jokes about 'the shirt coming off in the climax.

Ranbir Kapoor and Shahid Kapoor seemed to having a good time jumping around the stage. He was rehearsing for a tribute to late actors Shammi Kapoor and Dev Anand. Farhan Akhtar too was scheduled take to the stage, as was Chikni Chameli star Katrina Kaif.

After her universally applauded performance in this year's runaway hit 'The Dirty Picture', Vidya's oomph quotient has shot through the roof and the actress has been brought on board to raise a toast to India's southern sirens at 'Pan Bahar presents Zee Cine Awards 2012'. As Balan performs to a medley of chartbusters from southern cinema, her moves will bring out the unmistakable flavor and inimitable style of the dancers from south Indian cinema. Burning down the stage with the raunchy 'Naka Muka', Vidya will finish the performance with a flourish, shimmying to her own 'Ooh La la, Ooh La La' ditty.

"My performance this year at Zee Cine Awards 2012 will be inspired by the immensely entertaining styles of some of the most iconic southern sirens including Silk. Let's hope the audience has as much fun as I do when I perform live at The Venetian Macao!" said Vidya.

Vidya is also a hot contender in the list of nominees for Best Actress at Zee Cine Awards '12 for her no-holds barred performance in The Dirty Picture. Giving her stiff competition for the trophy are Priyanka Chopra for Saat Khoon Maaf, Kareena Kapoor for Bodyguard, Kangna Ranaut for Tanu Weds Manu and Katrina Kaif for Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara. The actors vying for the Best Actor award this year will be Hrithik Roshan for Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, Ajay Devgn for Singham, Shah Rukh Khan for Don 2 and Ra.One, Salman Khan for Bodyguard and Ranbir Kapoor for Rockstar.

Hosted by the Don-2 duo - Shah Rukh Khan and Priyanka Chopra - Zee Cine Awards 2012 will be held at Asia's leading destination for business, leisure and entertainment, The Venetian Macao. Since its inception in 1998, Zee Cine Awards has emerged as the biggest tribute paid to the world's largest film industry and has attracted stalwarts of both Indian and international cinema. The awards will attract 600 million viewers to television screens the world over when it is telecast on Sunday, February 5 on Zee TV.
