POP icon Katy Perry has landed in India for her show at the opening of the fifth season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) — and says she is honoured to be in the country. After taking a flight from Tokyo, she tweeted: “After what felt like longest flight ever I’m finally here! This is my first performance in India.” The 27-year-old, is set to enthrall the audience with her hits like Fireworks and California Gurls. “Almost fell asleep in my curry last night, no joke... Woke up feeling so much better after a fresh meditate... feels appropriate being in India,” she tweeted.

This is not the first time the singer is visiting India. She tied the knot with now estranged husband Russell Brand in a traditional Hindu wedding ceremony in India in October 2010.
