Varun Dhawan is set to recreate the magic of hit song Oonchi Hai Building from the film Judwaa at the upcoming International Indian Film Academy (Iifa) awards.

The actor stars in a remake of the 1997 film, which originally featured Salman Khan, Karisma Kapoor and Rambha.

Dhawan will also be paying tribute to his father David Dhawan by dancing to the filmmakers’ most memorable songs at the 18th Iifa awards.

“We will be launching Oonchi Hai Building and with Tan Tana Tan there is a surprise. The other songs will be from Hero No 1, Coolie No 1, Bol Radha Bol and a lot of different tracks,” Dhawan told reporters at the Iifa press conference.

Dhawan, 30, is currently working on the sequel with Jacqueline Fernandez and Taapsee Pannu. The movie will feature two tracks from the original film, which have been recreated by the makers.

The actor, however, refused to give more details about his performance at the upcoming event.

“I don’t want to talk about it in detail. There are some surprises in store. Karan Johar is giving me some ideas [for the performance],” Dhawan said.

Khan will also be present at the awards night. When asked if he is planning to dance with the star, Dhawan said: “I can’t say anything right now.”

Dhawan will make his debut at the Iifa awards, to be held in New York on July 15, and will also host a small segment at the awards ceremony.
