Bollywood
actor
Shahid
Kapoor
will
be
rehearsing
vigorously
the
whole
day
on
his
birthday
for
his
Michael
Jackson
act
for
the
Filmfare
awards.
Says
Shahid,
“The
Filmfare
organizers
felt
I
could
do
the
Michael
Jackson
tribute.
And
I
took
up
the
challenge.
We
didn"t
have
much
time
to
rehearse,
only
four
days.
But
I"ve
grown
up
watching
MJ"s
music
videos,
am
a
huge
fan,
so
it
wasn"t
difficult
to
master
the
choreography.
I
will
be
paying
a
tribute,
not
copying
MJ.
But
it
better
not
to
adulterate
his
steps."
While
other
performers
at
the
Filmfare
awards
will
have
their
acts
recorded
Shahid
will
be
performing
live.
Says
the
focused
performer,
“Yes,
I"ll
be
going
live…
a
8-minute
homage.
I
love
dancing
on
stage.
In
India
there"s
no
specific
culture
for
stage
performances.
Out
West
there"s
a
huge
market
for
live
performances.
Their
films
don"t
have
songs
and
dances.
Their
pop
stars
have
a
vibrant
stage
culture.
So
stage
performances
are
a
huge
market
in
the
West."
