The International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) Awards 2019, which is its 20th edition, has taken place in Mumbai this year. Present for the occasion were some of the popular stars in the industry like Salman Khan, Ranveer Singh, Katrina Kaif, Ayushmann Khurrana, Karan Johar, Vicky Kaushal, Sara Ali Khan, Madhuri Dixit, Shahid Kapoor, etc. Salman Khan, Ranveer Singh, Sara Ali Khan, Vicky Kaushal et al will also be performing at the event too. IIFA Awards 2019 Winners Live Updates: Alia Bhatt's Raazi, Ayushmann Khurrana's Andhadhun and Other Films That Won The Trophies.

While it was a star-studded night, some of the guests managed to raise our curiosity. Like the pretty girl who accompanied Salman Khan on the green carpet. We expected either his sister Arpita Khan Sharma (who actually came in with her husband Aayush Sharma), or his 'good' friend, Iulia Vantur (say, where is she these days?) or Katrina Kaif (Nay, that won't be happening). But our hopes were dashed by this lovely lady. IIFA20 Awards 2019 Green Carpet Pics: Salman Khan, Alia Bhatt, Shahid Kapoor and Other Bollywood Celebs Make a Stylish Appearance.

As for the film where she is making her debut, well, it's none other than Dabangg 3! Now understood why Salman Khan chose IIFA 2019 green carpet to give the world a little intro of the upcoming debutante. Saiee Manjrekar will play Salman Khan's love interest in the prequel portions of Dabangg 3, that is directed by Prabhu Dheva. Interestingly, her father had played Sonakshi Sinha's drunkard dad in the first Dabangg movie.

Now that we have seen how pretty she is, we have to wait till Christmas this year to gauge her acting chops, when Dabangg 3 releases in theatres.
