Mumbai: Superstar <keyword id="1671" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="shah-rukh-khan" source="Orion">Shah Rukh Khan</keyword> on Tuesday teased his friend and filmmaker <keyword id="19973215" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="karan" source="keywords">Karan</keyword> Johar for hosting more chat shows and directing lesser films. <keyword id="19900227" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="shah-rukh" source="keywords">Shah Rukh</keyword> and Karan, who are set to host the International Indian Film Academy (<keyword id="22515764" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="iifa" source="keywords">IIFA</keyword>) Awards 2024, have worked together in several hit movies such as "Kuch Kuch Hota Hai", "Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham...", "My Name is Khan", and "Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna". At the press conference of the IIFA Awards, Shah Rukh pulled Karan's leg for being less active on the directorial front. "He hosts chat shows, film shows. Picturein bhi toh bana mere bhai (When are you going to make films, my brother?)" said the superstar, eliciting laughter from the filmmaker. Karan, whose last directorial was 2023's "Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani", admitted Shah Rukh was right. "This is sounding so wrong on so many levels for a filmmaker. That I should be making movies. (But) That is exactly what I should be doing," said the filmmaker, who also hosts the popular celebrity chat show "Koffee With Karan". IIFA Awards, the three-day award gala, returns to Yas Island, Abu Dhabi, for the third consecutive year and will be held from September 27 to 29. Actor <keyword id="19895145" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="vicky-kaushal" source="keywords">Vicky Kaushal</keyword> will join Shah Rukh and Karan on the stage as a host. There will also be performances by veteran actor Rekha and stars such as <keyword id="19911186" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="shahid-kapoor" source="keywords">Shahid Kapoor</keyword>, Janhvi Kapoor, and Kriti Sanon. "I'm so privileged to be hosting this show with Vicky and Karan, and all the amazing talent. Some of us are present here this evening. And of course, there's going to be great performances to follow. There's going to be Shahid, Vicky, Jahnvi, Kriti, and of course, the most wonderful star of them all, Rekha ji," said Shah Rukh. The "Pathaan" star, who is returning to the IIFA stage as a host after almost a decade, said he wanted to present all editions of the awards show but the dates didn't match. "They called me once to host (IIFA), they are calling me back after 10 years," he quipped, saying these days it's important to "clarify" when it's a joke. "IIFA is being hosted all around the world, which makes us very proud. And more often than not I've had to beg them 'I'm shooting but you are in Vancouver, Toronto, Malaysia, do it (IIFA) here in Borivali or in film city like others do. But their vision is big," he added. For the first time, IIFA Awards 2024 is bringing together the best of both Hindi and South film industries-Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada, with an aim to celebrate and honour the richness and diversity of Indian cinema by showcasing Bollywood flair at the IIFA Awards and vibrant South Indian cinema at IIFA Utsavam, which marks the beginning of the grand event. Telugu star <keyword id="20115740" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="rana-daggubati" source="keywords">Rana Daggubati</keyword>, who will host IIFA Utsavam with Teja Sajja, also attended the press conference on Tuesday. Shah Rukh said this year's edition of IIFA is "more Indian" than ever. "IIFA has always thought of taking Indian cinema, now with the inclusion of Malayalam, Kannada, Tamil and Telugu and Hindi cinema (to the world)... "This is even more Indian than it has ever been before. Keeping up with your vision, I'm thankful now for trying to come back after so many years, I hope we can present it well and keep people entertained." Rana recalled being hosted by Shah Rukh at his house in Dubai for an after-party some time ago. "He is so hospitable. He has actually entertained the entire four (South) industries, not only as an actor but also as a human being," he said. The actor also thanked Karan, who presented the Hindi version of his two-part epic fantasy film "Baahubali", for supporting South cinema. "And really Karan, it started with you. The fact that we got 'Baahubali' here (in the north)... (It was) the first time all the languages started speaking cinema in some form. Thank you for that," Rana added. The press conference was also attended by "Yudhra" actor Siddhant Chaturvedi and "Stree 2" star Abhishek Banerjee. They will host IIFA Rocks 2024, the musical extravaganza which will bring down the curtain on the event. As he stepped on to the stage, Shah Rukh took a moment to congratulate Abhishek on the success of "Stree 2", his latest release. "Abhishek, it's so wonderful to see you live after watching your wonderful film. I've been wanting to call you," he said.

With the companies looking for increasingly innovative and engaging ways to bring their events to life, it is now the perfect time to explore technological tools/ XR (extended reality) solutions such as - AR (<keyword id="6369782" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="augmented-reality">augmented reality</keyword>) and VR (<keyword id="6369781" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="virtual-reality">virtual reality</keyword>) and create the new generation of <keyword id="9084093" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="virtual-events">virtual events</keyword>. The technologies powering virtual and augmented reality experiences is now more accessible than ever, and are becoming an essential proponent when devising a virtual event. According to Statisca, consumer spending on augmented and virtual reality (AR/VR) technology is expected to reach around 7 billion U.S. dollars. Total AR/VR spending worldwide is projected to amount to 18.8 billion U.S. dollars in 2020. According to another projection, the overall XR market globally is expected to touch USD 220 Billion by end of 2022. Given the current market scenario, it is essential that event companies approach the project as a focal point instead of the brand. There are various ways in which launching a virtual event by utilizing innovative technology can lead to recreating effective consumer experience, all through the comfort of their homes. <ol><li>3D Merchandise/ Digital Avatars </li></ol>Event organizers can create 3D merchandise or digital avatars that can be used as mascots. These can be available for the consumers to purchase from online stores and act as a great way to build interactivity and can be personalized according to one’s preference. 2. 3D Landscape Event organizers can create a sense of space through- exhibition/stalls/stages. It helps viewers connect with the theme of the event and gives a make-believe feel to them actually attending the event, even as they are restricted at home. 3. 3D Assistance for Guidance A virtual assistant guiding through the landscape or the event can take the viewers for a tour. This can also be a sales assistant or of any other form, depending upon the nature of the event. We recently witnessed these 3D formats being put to use by Event Capital through its IP- ‘The Edutainment Show’. We, at Event Capital, are now taking one step forward and building a Virtual Funtown for our IP WindMill Festival. Utilization of these elements has its own set of advantages that the event organizers can benefit from 4. Creating interactive real-world experiences Event organizers need to find value in the property that they earlier created on-ground and re-create similar spaces (i.e. exhibition stands or experience zones) in the virtual world. Creating hyper-realistic experiences increases realism and also enables the audience to explore and interact with them is the perfect way to make a virtual event a successful one. Consumers have the liberty to explore the virtual space even as their physical mobility is restricted due to distance or any other reasons. This is what our valued community will witness with the upcoming WindMill Festival – Virtual Funtown. 5. Make virtual spaces more interactive and immersive Unique AR tools have the power to provide an engaging ‘try-before-you-buy’ experience to consumers, hence becoming a key element in their purchasing journey. Although the experiences offered through the events is virtual, consumers are interacting within their own real-world and can avail some of these services offline too. Such events present a chance to event organisers to showcase their ideas in a more artistic and rewarding way. An example – Ikea offers its customers the chance to place furniture into their homes with the simple use of a smartphone. 6. Using 3D element as a visualization and executional tool In order to present a graphic representation of a product or a dynamic understanding of an event, organizers can make use of the 3D tool. This would help present a better idea to brands or consumers that they are catering to. We have noticed some unique innovation done by IIFA Stomp, Sunburn Festival, the upcoming Unrated Music and Arts Festival and as the days go by, we are seeing major improvement in the quality of the XR experience being delivered by Event IP owners. However, a word of caution here before we all start anticipating and celebrating the addition of XR experiences into our virtual / on-ground events. The entire ecosystem both on demand side and supply side - products, devices, software, hardware, content etc. has to evolve into a user friendly and affordable solution…at a mass scale. Until that happens, we will have to settle for virtual 3D experiences and soon those will have no differentiators. But yes, I must confess that the events industry in India is working aggressively towards unique virtual innovations and going by the track record, we have hope and positivity.
