Salman Khan has held a video conference from Taj Lands End, Mumbai, and interacted with some journalists based in New York City, at the Sheraton Times Square, on June 1, to promote the upcoming IIFA New York event, at the MetLife Stadium, in Meadowlands, New Jersey, July 13-15.

Salman when asked to recall the memories from his past IIFA events, sitting in the middle between actresses Katrina Kaif and Alia Bhatt, deflected the question with self-deprecating humor, retorted with a smile: “Nothing. IIFA events are meant to be not remembered at all. After an IIFA event, you need two weeks to recover from it, you forget everything.”
Katrina talked about some of her favorite spots in the Big Apple, including Central Park and the Meatpacking district, where one could watch films in an open theater, while Alia expressed her joy at making IIFA debut in New York City.
What Salman actually meant, was that with all the great partying that goes on the sidelines of the IIFA awards, memories just tumble into one big heap to one side, with a halo of “Had a Great Time’ superimposed on them. He did say, that fans will get an IIFA experience like never before.

Fans who go to watch Salman and others perform at the IIFA awards over the weekend in July, may well want to take another look at coming back to Meadowlands, which is around 8 miles from Times Square. Meadowlands may soon become a prime tourist and vacation destination for people not just in America, but for people from around the world.
The much-delayed construction of the $3 billion American Dream mall in Meadowlands, right next to the MetLife stadium, which was announced 13 years ago, is going full speed ahead, with a goal to finish it by Spring 2019.
Fans in America are eager to see top Bollywood stars and A R Rahman perform.
