The first leg of the tour will also have performances by them in Trinidad & Tobago, Houston, Atlantic City, New York, Vancouver, London, said a press statement by Wizcraft International Entertainment, the event management company which is putting together the tour.

While rehearsing for the tour at a hall in Juhu, in the northwest suburb of Mumbai Tuesday, Abhishek Bachchan said Aishwarya and he were excited to perform together on the stage for the first time after their wedding.

"Aishwarya will be performing on some of her most popular numbers, including on the 'Dola re..' number from 'Devdas' with Madhuri Dixit. I am particularly thrilled about performing on the item number 'Kajra re' from 'Bunty Aur Babli' with my dad and Aishwarya," Abhishek said.
