The 22nd International Indian Film Academy Awards took place at Etihad Arena on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi.
The awards celebrate the best of Bollywood films from the past year, but this year focused on films from the past two years, as the event was cancelled in 2020 and 2021 due to the pandemic.
Top stars of the Hindi film industry, including Salman Khan, Shahid Kapoor, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan, attended the two-day event in the capital, which began on Friday with IIFA Rocks, an evening dedicated to music and fashion.
Hosted by director Farah Khan Kunder and actor Aparshakti Khurana, IIFA Rocks featured performances by popular singers including Yo Yo Honey Singh, Guru Randhawa, Neha Kakkar and Dhvani Bhanushali.
Composer and singer Devi Sri Prasad, composer Tanishk Bagchi and singers Asees Kaur, Ash King and Zahrah S Khan also took to the stage.
