IIFA: Anil Kapoor makes Tampa Mayor groove

Darpan News Desk IANS, 25 Apr, 2014 03:48 PM

Bollywood actor Anil Kapoor Thursday grooved with Tampa mayor Bob Buckhorn at the International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) weekend and awards.

The actor, who unveiled the "Do the Tampa" IIFA 2014 theme song, made the mayor dance a bit at the opening press conference of the film extravaganza. The theme song is composed by Ravi Drums.

While Buckhorn was shying away from dancing, Anil pulled him on stage and made him do his own signature step.

The 15th Videocon D2H IIFA Weekend started Wednesday, and will culminate Saturday. This is the US debut of the event, which celebrates the glamour and splendour of Indian cinema on new international shores every year.
