"For me, it is going to be such a big highlight to see her (Rekha) perform live. I know a little bit of her act and to see that live is going to be a huge thing", Varun Dhawan said as he invited on stage. Asked which songs she would be performing on, the veteran actor said, "I have a second name- mystery. If I tell you now, then what's the point?"
