Then he raised Gigi, and kissed her on the cheek before escorting her off stage. On the other hand, the audience was left enthralled by Alia and Rashmika's performance at NMACC day 2 in Mumbai, in addition to Varun's performance.

The videos of the respective dance performances were shared on the actors' and paparazzi's fan pages. Alia is seen wearing a short dress in the video, while Rashmika grooved in a saree. In the video, Bhatt first takes off her heels before beginning to dance, spinning around Rashmika Mandanna on stage. Alia and Rashmika attempted a ballroom routine, with the former twirling the Pushpa star.
The two actors ended up doing the hook step of Naatu Naatu while the crowd applauded them. Earlier, Rashmika performed on Naatu Naatu at the Indian Premier League 2023 opening ceremony on Friday in Ahmedabad, Gujarat. This wasn't even Alia's first time performing the song on stage. Alia, dressed in a white saree, performed the hook steps of Naatu Naatu during an award ceremony a few months ago.
