The much-touted tour of song-and-dance shows spearheaded by the Bachchans will kick off in July this year. Besides providing entertainment to Bollywood buffs, the tour will also aim to spread awareness about global warming.
There has been much shuffling in the ensemble of performers of ‘The Unforgettable Tour’ but the show’s producers Wizcraft International Entertainment have managed to rope in enough of big stars to give the extra sheen to the musical shows.
The Tour will be held over 26 countries including Canada, USA, England, Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia and countries in Africa and the Middle East.
Helmed by Amitabh Bachchan, Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai, the tour will reportedly kick off on July 18 at the Roger's Center in Toronto, Canada.
It can be recalled that it was here that the first announcement of tour was made by Aishwarya and Abhishek last year. The tour will also feature Bollywood celebrities like Preity Zinta, Akshay Kumar, Ritesh Deshmukh and possibly Saif Ali Khan.

Music: Vishal & Shekhar
Vishal-Shekhar are a music directing duo for Bollywood films. They have had a number of successes including Om Shanti Om, Tara Rum Pum, Salaam Namaste, Dus and Bluffmaster.
However, they also have their share of plagiarism like most contemporary Bollywood music directors, since they used the "Pulp Fiction" theme as Bollywood movie "Cash" theme song.
The duo rose in prominence when they composed the score for the film Jhankaar Beats, which included the hit song tu aashiqui hai. Their efforts paid off when they won the Filmfare RD Burman Award for New Music Talent for Jhankaar Beats.
Vishal Dadlani is also the vocalist of Mumbai-based electronic band Pentagram, and was a sometime-VJ at Channel V. Shekhar is a trained classical singer and has a sound base of Indian music.
