Katrina Kaif begins her innings of performing the 'Chikni Chameli' number on stage will begin with an award function. The buzz doing the rounds is that Katrina was not too keen on performing on the hit item number from the film Agneepath.

Several offers fell on Kat's lap to perform 'Chikni Chameli' on New Year's Eve. But, she turned them down the offers because she wanted to celebrate the occasion with her family. But according to sources, she will now be performing at an awards function on Saturday.

She has asked the organisers to arrange for special costumes for her maiden performance on the number. She will be performing on a medley consisting several of her hit songs including 'Sheila Ki Jawani'.
