Priyanka, Koena to jam with Nelly Furtado!
Grammy Award-winning American popstrel Nelly Furtado will be performing in Mumbai for a music concert on December 31. And guess who’s going to be sharing the same stage as her? We’ve got confirmation that a bunch of B-town celebs, including Priyanka Chopra, Koena Mitra and Shahid Kapoor will be Nelly’s opening act on New Year’s Eve.
What’s more A R Rahman too will be performing along with Canadian-based desi band Josh (who are instrumental in bringing the singer to India).

The Bolly junta will dance to a set of popular filmi numbers. Says Koena, “I’m performing to five of my favourite songs, including the latest tracks from Apna Sapna Money Money.” This will be followed by a jam session between the other performers, except for A R Rahman. He has been reserved for the grand finale.
Says Priyanka, “Unfortunately, I haven’t met Nelly and will see her only on stage. I’m going to be travelling to South Africa for God Tussi Great Ho, after which I will head to Prague to shoot for Drona. I don’t even have the time for technical rehearsals.”
Miss Piggy Chops is such a big fan of the international artiste that she even has her songs as her mobile’s caller tune. She says, “Promiscuous is my current favourite. In fact, I had the track I’m like a bird for the longest time.”
For Koena, however, the jamming session with Nelly is the big draw. “I’m so used to doing solo shows. It’s rare to share the stage with fellow colleagues. I’m equally excited as it’s a Nelly Furtado concert.”
Why not, Shahid?
The Bolly beauties have no qualms about working on the New Year’s Eve either. “This is the first time I’m working on New Year’s Eve,” says Priyanka. “In the past, I’ve only shot for a couple of hours in the day and then rushed back home to be with family. This time around, I’m going to usher in the New Year with thousands of people. It’s going to be a wonderful experience,” she says.
On the other hand, Koena says, “Seeing the pop diva belting out numbers beside me is going to be quite an exciting experience.”
Meanwhile, a hesitant Shahid Kapur refused to divulge whether he was doing the concert or not. A source close to him says, “He is in talks with them. and yet to finalise his participation.”
