And now, the singer-composer will be crooning and performing on multiple songs that have defined the glorious journey of one of Bollywood's sexiest actresses. Some of the songs chosen for the performance include, 'Aap Jaisa Koi', 'Dum Maro Dum' , and 'Laila Main Laila' among others. Kanika Kapoor is a huge fan of Zeenat Aman and she's a huge admirer of her acting skills. Talking about her performance at IIFA, she said, "Besides being a prolific actress, Zeenatji is popularly known for her grace and sensuality. She was a trendsetter in many ways. She never shied away from anything and stood firm by her choices. It's an absolute honour to perform on her songs since she has been my idol and inspiration."
