The first US edition of the International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) brought two leading names of Hollywood, John Travolta and Kevin Spacey, who delighted the crowd packed into the Tampa Bay Buccaneers football team's 66,000-seat capacity stadium by trying their best at Indian dancing.
 
"House of Cards" star Spacey, who was wearing a tuxedo, donned an Indian lungi (wrap around) around his waist to cheers from the crowd.

Show's hosts Farhan Akhtar and Shahid Kapoor requested Kevin to shake a leg to the Bollywood number.

He happily obliged them and was the show stealer.

Wearing a lungi, the wrap-around for males, the actor danced to the hit number from super hit Hindi movie Chennai Express with Deepika, who played the female lead in the romantic comedy. Farhan and Shahid also joined in.

"It is great to be here and see the performances at IIFA," said the Oscar winning actor, known for his work in The Usual Suspects and American Beauty.

After the histrionics of participating in a Bollywood dance number the actor lied down on stage surrounded by the Bollywood actors.

The 54-year-old actor handed the Entertainer of the year award to Deepika, who had four back-to-back hits last year including 'Race 2', 'Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani', 'Chennai Express' and 'Ram-Leela'.

The two-time Academy Award winner Kevin Spacey also conducted a master class (The Master Class Panel), one of the myriad sub-events during the main 15th Videocon D2H IIFA Weekend. 

He expressed that Hollywood and Bollywood are creatively edging together.
