The IIFA Awards make for a stellar evening every year when the stars that grace our screens give us incredible performances on stage and are recognised for their hard work. Unfortunately, the 2020 IIFA Awards was an unavoidable exception due to the global pandemic and we missed seeing our stars on the red carpet. However, the one factor that remained consistent was honouring them for their exceptional work.
