Shahrukh Khan’s daughter turns photographer!

The proud dad has shared a photograph taken by his daughter Suhana

Shahrukh Khan is in London, shooting with Katrina Kaif for the Yash Chopra romantic musical and has been missing his kids badly. Talking about them, he tweeted, “Missing my lil boy and girl….they have such small lovely hands….and such large beautiful hearts.” His attachment with his kids is a part of Bollywood folklore. When he isn’t busy ruling Bollywood, King Khan spends as much time as possible with his kids and thanks to the social networking site, we all can be a part of the family bonding.

While speculation about his son Aryan being launched in Bollywood with all the fanfare reserved for star kids doing the rounds, there hasn’t been much said about his daughter Suhana. Apparently the little girl is interested in photography. When Suhana met her dad in London recently, she took a photograph of her dashing dad and boy, were we impressed! Talking about his daughter’s talent, he tweeted, “my lil girl took this pic of mine. i think its the coolest i have ever looked. thanx suhana…my official fotographer.” Didn’t it make you go ‘aww’ too? Wethinks l’il Suhana did a great job and she should shoot her dad’s pictures more often!

King of romance Shahrukh Khan as Jawaharlal Nehru

If everything goes well then very soon we might get to see the king of romance Shahrukh Khan in the role of powerful politician Jawaharlal Nehru. After doing lots of permutation combination Hollywood director Bruce Beresford found Shahrukh Khan’s face quite resemblance to Jawaharlal Nehru.

Bruce Beresford who made Oscar winning movie ‘Driving Miss Daisy’ and critically acclaimed films like ‘Silent Fall’ and ‘Black Robe’ is making a film on India Gandhi and he is keen to rope in Shahrukh Khan to play Indira Gandhi’s father Jawaharlal Nehru.

Presently, he is in Mumbai and met with different actors of Bollywood. Most of them showed their interest to be a part of the movie. At the dinner party, he presented before the guests morphed faces of actors from both Bollywood and Hollywood taking part in the film.

It took the audience by surprise when a clipping shows Shahrukh Khan’s face morphed into the face of Jawaharlal Nehru.

Let’s see how King Khan fits into the bill and impress both his Hollywood and Bollywood audiences.

Salman Khan and Priyanka Chopra to Open IPL Season 5 - No Shahrukh Khan?

It's been reported that Salman Khan and Priyanka Chopra will be on hand at the premier for the IPL season 5. Surprisingly, Shahrukh Khan has not been mentioned despite his close ties to the sport.

However, another whose name has been mentioned is Amitabh Bachchan. A report from Bollywood Life indicates that the actor, who recently had two abdominal surgeries, is planning to be a part of the opening ceremony. Senior Bachchan tweeted about his excitement over participating in the event, saying:

"Asia Cup over soon and then IPL …opening extravaganza in Chennai .. and yours truly a small part of it …nervous as hell. April 3 is the day for the opening, preparing for it already…getting back into the grind."

The IPL is the Indian Premier League for cricket. This fifth season is scheduled to have nine teams competing in a total of 76 matches spanning April and May of 2012. The opening ceremony will take place in Chennai.

While Salman Khan will be on hand along with Priyanka Chopra for performances, there has been no reports of SRK's involvement. Shahrukh is the owner of one of the teams, the Kolkata Knight Riders, so he is likely to be seen a lot during the season as his team competes. While he's co-starred with Priyanka Chopra in "Don 2," he probably thought it best not to be up on stage with her, or Salman (for other reasons), for now!

What do you think of the news that Salman Khan and Priyanka Chopra will appear at the IPL season 5 opening ceremony? Are you excited for their appearances?

Aamir Khan takes on Shahrukh Khan with ‘Talaash’

The two stars’ upcoming films are set to clash once again this Diwali…who will win this one, we wonder!

Aamir Khan and Shahrukh Khan have always been at odds. With both of their big films slated to release this year, it was expected that their rivalry would get even more bitter. Though there are several months left for the films to release, Aamir has already taken the first step in the battle. He has changed the release date of his next big film, Talaash, co-starring Rani Mukherjee and Kareena Kapoor. The thriller, produced by Excel Entertainment and directed by Reema Kagti, was slated to release on June 1, but will now hit the screens on November 30 instead. So? Shahrukh Khan’s big love story, produced by Yash Raj Films and directed by Yash Chopra himself, will release during Diwali. The festival comes between November 13 and 15 this year. That gives SRK’s as-yet-untitled film just two weeks before Talaash replaces it in the theatres. Add to that, this: every cinemagoer who goes to watch the Yash Chopra flick will be greeted with banners and trailers promoting Aamir’s film. We know that because Aamir has done it before.

Aamir and Shahrukh clashed four years ago in a similar situation. Shahrukh’s Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi (incidentally, another YRF flick) released on December 14, while Aamir’s Ghajini released two weeks later on December 28. All those who came to watch RNBDJ were greeted with ushers sporting Aamir’s trademark haircut from Ghajini. Aamir’s trailers were also screened during SRK’s film. The result? Ghajini’s box office collections were much higher than that of RNBDJ.

Of course, the official reason for the change of Talaash’s release date has nothing to do with the film itself. Ritesh Sidhwani confirmed that all the post-production work on the film is almost complete, but the date was changed because Aamir’s television show will be going on air in June. Aamir won’t be able to devote the time necessary to promote Talaash when he is busy with his show. So to do justice to both of Aamir’s ventures, the decision was taken to change the release date of the film.

History, they say, repeats itself. But we are sure that after having borne the brunt of Aamir’s handiwork the last time around, YRF head honchos are not going to let it happen again. There’s a lot riding for them on this film, especially since it is Yashji’s comeback directorial venture. Aamir shares a special relationship with YRF because of Dhoom 3 and we won’t be surprised if the production house swings into action and sorts out the mess – either by requesting Excel to juggle things around, or changing the date of their own film’s release. After all, YRF had changed the release date of their Salman Khan-Katrina Kaif-starrer Ek Tha Tiger from June 1 to Eid on Aamir’s request, as he wanted to release Talaash (then known as Dhuaan) on that date. It’s time he returned the favour, don’t you think?

Shahrukh Khan develops beefy muscles for Chennai Express

Superstar Shahrukh Khan is all set to give a run for money to all the Bollywood hunks when it comes to a picture perfect and fit body. SRK, who will be starring in Rohit Shetty's Chennai Express, has a surprise for us.

We have seen Shahrukh flaunting his six-pack abs in Om Shanti Om. Reportedly, the superstar will once again hit the gym for a hot bod. Shahrukh will develop a muscular physique for his upcoming Chennai Express.

Chennai Express have been hogging the media limelight for its much speculated female lead. The buzz was rife that either of the actresses Kareena, Deepika or Asin might be seen opposite to the King Khan, that infuriated Shetty as he refuted all such rumours.

Shahrukh Khan to fight corruption!

We mean in a film – we hear that SRK has agreed to be part of the Hindi remake of Ghajini director AR Murugadoss’ Tamil blockbuster Ramana

Superstar Shahrukh Khan is far away in the cold climate of London shooting for Yash Chopra’s film, but back home there’s lots happening to keep him hot in the news. Fresh goss is that the Don 2 actor has at last given a thumbs up to AR Murugadoss’ for the Hindi remake of his Tamil blockbuster Ramana, which will be produced by Sanjay Leela Bhansali. The film is about an ordinary man who takes up the cause to fight corruption after a personal tragedy. By the way, if it goes as per the makers’ wishes, the Hindi version of Ramana may bring together the Devdas co-stars, SRK and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.

Apparently it wasn’t child’s play for Murugadoss and Bhansali to get the superstar to say ‘yes’ to film. ‘Coz around the same time SRK was in talks with another South director, Gautham Menon – who made Ekk Deewana Tha – for a cop drama. But two things worked against the filmmaker. One, the protagonist’s police character, is a personality that has risen to fame since the success of Dabangg and Singham and could already be overdone. Two, the failure of Menon’s last release dissuaded the superstar from doing the film. In the bargain, Murugadoss got lucky and he found his ‘common man’ to fight corruption in superstar SRK.

SRK: Superhero or Superstar?

What is the difference between a superhero and a superstar? Both are idolized by millions and beloved by hordes of fans. Both make us believe in the unimaginable. So are they really that far apart? Bollywood badshaah Shahrukh Khan seems to think so, and he should know as a superstar playing a superhero in his upcoming film Ra.One.

“A superhero’s larger purpose is always very selfless and a superstar’s larger purpose is to stick to films,” SRK explained. ”I’m not selfless. My highest purpose in life is to make a great film.” That’s quite a bit of honesty coming from an actor, who are often considered modern-day heroes.

Any mention of Ra.One get SRK talking about his pet project. His character in the film, G.One, is said to be made up of “solid electricity”. It seems the new technological era has lent itself well to a new kind of superhero. “In olden times, superheroes could come from planets because they were out of understanding. Now, the quantum part is more difficult to understand than the macro part of it.” Ra.One will take the superhero mythology in a new direction, hoping to separate itself from the plethora of popular comic book heroes. “We felt that if we took the modern, new creation [Internet] of man and say a superhero and super villain can be created out of it, that would be really unique.”

Praise for the film has already been pouring in, even though it is set to release on Diwali, which is months away yet. “The other day, somebody told me my car shot is like Krrish and GI Joe: Rise of the Cobra. It didn’t happen, so we did it digitally. If I had known we’ll go digital, I’d have done it even bigger.”

But being righteous and heroic isn’t the only thing on Shahrukh Khan’s plate. Releasing soon after Ra.One will be the Farhan Akhtar directorial sequel Don 2, which releases in December. “As an actor, it’s good fun – to be so evil and be so good. It’s very exciting. I have this cool look, long hair and beard in [Don 2].”

Imran Khan flags off SRK’s show

Actors Imran Khan and Katrina Kaif take part in a dance 

performance during the music launch for the......

Talks were on with several top stars, but it’s Imran Khan who will flag off his mamu’s (Aamir Khan) arch rival, Shah Rukh Khan’s TV show, Live My Life. He will be the first star to have a fan get a taste of his ‘regular’ life on the show produced by Red Chilies Idiot Box for UTV Stars.


The actor, in the midst of promotions for Mere Brother Ki Dulhan, has shot the episode with his 19-year-old fan Rhea from Chennai. Imran first sent a black Mercedes to pick her up from the domestic airport terminal. The psychology student, also an avid poetess, was welcomed by Lavani dancers at the hotel lobby. Next, Imran sent her a handwritten welcome letter along with kheer khodoms, a Bengali sweet that he relishes.

During the second half of the day, she attended a script reading session with director Punit Malhotra, followed by a complete makeover by Imran’s personal stylist, Neha. The Delhi Belly actor ensured that she attends a quick bartending class, since he has an avid interest in it.

Then, Neha, who is also Imran’s best friend, accompanied Rhea to a mock media interaction session, after which she also met his mother-in-law, Vandana Malik. Lastly, she had a dinner date with the actor at his favourite restaurant, Gajalee. He decided on the menu in advance and had the staff at their beck and call.

Shifa Maitra, head of programming (shows) says that although the show could have flagged off with SRK, Imran was a better fit. “He’s young, popular, at the top, and iconic, especially after Delhi Belly. We had conducted a research with youngsters who said we should start the show with him. And more so, he was enthusiastic about the exercise,” she says, adding, “We don’t expect a busy star to actually work out the details of a day the way he did.

He surprised us. He was shooting, but he still sent his stylist and make-up person to attend to Rhea.” Shifa informs that Imran remembers Rhea and chose her from all the applicants for his episode because she has been consistently writing to him after I Hate Luv Storys (2010) released. “Rhea and he are similar. They are intelligent, soft spoken and dignified. That got them talking,” she says. “They parted with a smile and I am sure they will be in touch for long.”

I’m not selfless: Shah Rukh Khan

He might be donning a contoured suit to play a superhero in his forthcoming project Ra.One, but actor Shah Rukh Khan says that in real life, he is far from the self-sacrificing man with superpowers on the big screen.

“A superhero’s larger purpose is always very selfless and a superstar’s larger purpose is to stick to films. I’m not selfless. My highest purpose in life is to make a great film,” the 45-year-old says.

Unlike any superhero heard of till date, SRK’s character in the movie is made of ‘solid electricity’.
“In olden times, superheroes could come from planets because they were out of understanding. Now, the quantum part is more difficult to understand than the macro part of it,” he says, adding, “We felt that if we took the modern, new creation (Internet) of man and say a superhero and super villain can be created out of it, that would be really unique.”

Praises have already started pouring in for the movie that releases around Diwali.
“The other day, somebody told me my car shot is like Krrish and GI Joe: Rise of the Cobra. It didn’t happen, so we did it digitally. If I had known we’ll go digital, I’d have done it even bigger,” says the actor, who is also coming out with a PS3 game on the movie.
Apart from playing a superhero, Shah Rukh will also be seen in a negative avatar in the much anticipated Don 2: The Chase Continues, which releases in December.

“As an actor, it’s good fun – to be so evil and be so good. It’s very exciting. I have this cool look, long hair and beard in the film,” he says.

SRK, Ranbir bid final adieu to Shammi Kapoor

Mumbai: Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan, who shared screen space with Shammi Kapoor in "Chamatkar" (1992), paid his homage to the late actor at his Malabar Hill home on Sunday evening.
Shah Rukh, who came in a black BMW, did not stay inside the house for very long and also restrained from speaking to the media.

Also present was actor Ranbir Kapoor, who is Shammi Kapoor's grandnephew.

Shah Rukh Khan attends Shammi Kapoor's funeral

Shammi had recently acted in Ranbir's forthcoming film "Rockstar" that is being directed by Imtiaz Ali.
Actor Anil Kapoor, who is related to the Kapoors, too came to pay his last respects.
Shammi Kapoor, the dancing star of the 1950s and 1960s who revolutionised the image of Hindi film heroes with his carefree attitude and flamboyance, died in Mumbai on Sunday morning. He was 79.

Terrified of SRK, comfy with Sallu: Katrina

Katrina Kaif is getting set to shuttle between two big projects — one each with industry rivals Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan. While shooting for Ek Tha Tiger with ex-boyfriend Salman will begin next week, Yash Chopra’s romantic film with Shah Rukh goes on the floors in a few months.

And although the actor is excited to work with the latter, she’s scared and unsure of what to expect. “I’m terrified of working with SRK. I don’t know what it’s going to be like, but I hear he makes you feel comfortable,” she says, adding, “The other day, I wanted to ask him what I must do if there’s a scene where I am supposed to look at him longingly, but I can’t act when I stand in front of him. What if the words don’t come out? What if I choke?”

Even then, Katrina claims that unlike many of her contemporaries, she hasn’t grown up in awe of her co-star. “I’m sure he hasn’t seen me either when I was a kid. We both come with a clean slate in that regard,” she jokes.

Meanwhile, Ek Tha Tiger marks her return to working with Salman, three years after co-starring in Yuvvraj (2008). She says, “Salman and I acted in two successful comedies together and one film that didn’t do well. I was a part of Ek Tha Tiger even before they approached him. After New York (2009), Kabir (Khan) and I became good friends and he narrated the film to me a day before I started shooting for Zindagi… Salman was cast much later.” She adds, “It was a coincidence. Why should we not do a film together? We are grown-ups and I am comfortable working with him.”

When asked whether it’s tough to be working with the archrivals, Katrina denies it vehemently: “This is a misconception in the media.

All of us are fairly responsible individuals and decently well-behaved people. We all have separate and different equations, which are
sometimes cordial and sometimes not so friendly. Everyone must respect that person’s individual equation. Camps don’t exist.”

He mentioned that he was doing it so that I don't step on it yet again. That was a lovely moment. He isn't known as the King Khan for no reason and always be the Badshah." Well Jai Ho to this camaraderie!

'I'll never tie rakhi to SRK, Salman, Aamir'

Rakhi Sawant is a Bollywood actor, item
girl and television talk show host....

She’s named after the festival, but Rakhi Sawant does not believe in Raksha Bandhan. The 32-year-old item girl says she’s named Rakhi because she is her own rakshak (protector).

“Rakhi Sawant ko kisi bhai ki raksha ki zaroorat nahi hai. Mera Jesus hi meri raksha karta hai,” she says. But if there’s one person she’d like to tie a rakhi to, it’s MNS chief Raj Thackeray. “That is because he is also from Maharashtra.”

She explains: “Ab har kisi ko thodi shauhar ki nazar se dekh sakte hain. Baakiyon koi to bhai, bhai saahab hi kahenge na.” A small pause, and she adds, “I will never tie a rakhi to the three Khans — Shah Rukh, Salman and Aamir. You know that I will not tie a rakhi to Baba Ramdev either.” Does she have a message for her fans on the occasion of Raksha Bandhan? “Mujhe lagta hai ki border pe jo jawaan hain woh hi sab maaon aur behno ki raksha kar rahe hain. Har ladki ko unhe rakhi bhejni chahiye.” So, will she send them rakhis, too? “Mere paas address nahi hai.”

I’m not aware of any rivalry between Salman and Shahrukh—Asin

When the tiff between Salman and Shahrukh is known to all in the tinsel ville, the ‘Ready’ heroine Asin Thottkumal surprisingly articulated that she is oblivious of the rivalry between the high- flying Khans.

Recently, in an exclusive conversation with the tabloid, when Asin was asked if Salman was miffed with her as she is going to do a film with SRK, the hottie said that it’s not true, and all is well between Salman and her.

Moreover, the bombshell wittily stated that she was not even aware of Salman and Shahrukh’s brawl.

While addressing the media, Asin said, “There is no tiff between Salman and I, and neither am I aware of any rivalry between him and Shah Rukh.”

“I don’t think he (Salman) will have issues with me working with any actor, even if it’s Shah Rukh. Salman’s been in the industry for so long, he is above all this. This media sensationalism doesn’t matter to him or me,” added the actress.

Asin: I love Salman’s straight-faced humor

Asin, who has earlier shared screen space with Salman in ‘London Dreams’, will now be again seen opposite Salman in the approaching flick ‘Ready’.

Just as the other girls across the globe, who are crazy about the B-town bachelor, it seems Asin too has been bowled over by Salman.

Going gaga over Sallu, Asin said, “He extends so much help to new talent. I’ve seen youngsters come to him for advice with their portfolios almost every day. He takes them under his wing if he believes in their talent.”

“He is chilled out and not insecure despite all the hype and euphoria surrounding him. I love his straight-faced humor,” added the ‘Ready’ heroine.

I was love-struck by SRK in school, says Asin

Asin, who has apparently been zeroed in to romance Shahrukh Khan in Vishal’s imminent movie that is an adaptation of Chetan Bhagat’s‘2 States’, is all praises for the ‘Ra.One’ superhero.

The bombshell said that every actress in the industry desperately looks forward to work with Shahrukh, and whenever she gets the opportunity to work with him, it will be like a dream come true for her.

The actress also revealed that during her school days, she was smitten by the Baadshah of Bollywood.

Though Asin didn’t talk about her forthcoming venture with SRK, but speaking about working with the Khans, she said, “I have already worked with two of them so early in my career, I hope I get an exciting project with Shah Rukh to complete the dream… it is a dream for any actress!”

Expressing her liking for SRK, Asin said, “He is really charming and I admire his persona on and off screen. I was love-struck by him in school.”

Zoa and Giselli get a sneak peek at Shahrukh’s Ra.One

The cast members of Always Kabhi Kabhi were curious to know what it was like to shoot a big budget film like Ra.One and Shah Rukh Khan surprised them by showing them portions of the sci-fi thriller.

Shahrukh Khan did not interact with the young cast of Always Kabhi Kabhi while they were shooting the film as he did not want to overwhelm them with his presence. However, he did shoot for an item song Antenna with them. The song has turned out to be a treat for SRK fans!

Apparently, it was after the shoot for the song that the cast got to view the first rushes of Ra.One and that too in the most unexpected of places -- Shahrukh’s vanity van.

Always Kabhi Kabhi director Roshan Abbas who himself got a chance to see the first rushes and some songs of Ra.One along with young actors Zoa Morani, Giselli Monteiro, Ali Fazal, Satyajit Dubey, reveals the unexpected experience to a daily, saying "the kids were blown away after they saw the rushes. The sheer size and scale of Ra.One is overwhelming! Ali says it was like entering a space shuttle."

We must say, they are a lucky bunch! The rest of us have to make do with the Ra.One trailer.

Welcome to Shahrukh Khan the superhero. Yes, the actor will be seen doing some breathtaking stunts in his upcoming film Ra.One. He jumps from buildings, zooms on his bike through crowded alleys and dodges bullets. G.One (Shahrukh Khan) dices with death on every step of the way in this film directed by Anubhav Sinha. Besides Shahrukh, the movie stars Arjun Rampal (villain) and Kareena Kapoor (leading lady).

No sleaze for SRK, please

That Shah Rukh Khan wants to steer clear of controversies was evident when he met director Roshan Abbas and music director Pritam to discuss the music of SRK's production Always Kabhi Kabhi. Incidentally, Shah Rukh had a problem with the phrase Undie the condi, which is used in the song.

Shah Rukh told Abbas that he was not happy with the lyrics and the song sounded sleazy. Abbas explained that it is only a shortform of the phrase that the youth use for 'Understand the Condition'. Shah Rukh needed to be further convinced, and so Abbas showed Shah Rukh the research papers.

Roshan Abbas said, "I was telling him about the songs, when this discussion started. He asked me 'why are we doing this and what does it mean?' Shah Rukh was of the opinion that we should not use words like 'undie' and it sounded like kundi, which means bum in the South. I told him that this is actually a phrase which people use in North India.

They use the phrase 'Undie the condi of the situ', which means 'understand the condition of the situation'. I also pointed out that this was, in fact, a popular phrase in school in the North and it has been passed down many batches now."

Abbas added, "Since the film is about youngsters and targets youngsters, we have used many phrases like JFI which means 'just forget it' and PAW, which means 'parents are watching', etc, although I have not used PAW in my film. The kids do use these phrases and SRK was stunned and said, I know that today's generation says some weird things, but this is really different."

Abhishek upsets SRK after IPL loss?

Shah Rukh Khan's IPL team Kolkata Knight Riders was knocked out of IPL after they lost to Mumbai Indians and yet SRK, being the good friend that he is, ushered in Karan Johar's 39th birthday party. But Abhishek Bachchan walked in wearing a Mumbai Indian jersey to SRK's house!

AB Jr walked in an hour after Bhajji hit the winning six against Kolkata Knight Riders wearing the Mumbai Indian jersey. "Abhishek ne yeh kya pehna hai?" soon became the topic of discussion, reported Mumbai Mirror.

So, how did SRK react? Being a sportsman, SRK took it rather sportingly. A source told the tabloid, "He was the host of the party. Also, SRK is a very charming man. Toh uske chehre pe toh kuch nahi dikha," informed an eyewitness.

Not just that, Abhishek also met his alleged ex flame Rani Mukerji with a raised eye brow.

SRK connects with fans through video blog

The Baadshah of Bollywood Shahrukh Khan, as promised earlier, has posted a video on the micro-blogging site Twitter, to interact with his fans.

The actor jokingly revealed that his IPL team Kolkata Knight Riders threatened him at gun point, and that’s why he had decided to have a video blog.

In his first video blog, the actor assured that he would start talking about the good things and the bad things that had happened in the past few days, and he would scale them.

The first event that the actor talked about was his daughter’s birthday, which was celebrated recently on 21st and on 22nd and the birthday bash that he had hosted.

Incidentally, rating his daughter Suhana's birthday celebrations on a scale of 1 to 10, SRK gave it an 11, stating it was totally awesome.

The actor further stated that he got a pink lipstick as a present for his daughter and one of his friends gifted his daughter a pink iPad and a white bikini, which apparently made his daughter happy.

SRK spoke about his team’s loss in the IPL

Speaking about his IPL team Kolkata Knight Riders, SRK expressed his distress about his team’s loss to Mumbai, at Kolkata’s Eden Garden. Scaling the match on 1 to 10, the actor gave it a minus eight.

However, Shahrukh didn’t loose hope but assured that hopefully his team will make up for it in the next match.

SRK openly promised in the video that he would soon release the official trailer of his sci-fi film ‘Ra.One’, by the end of the month.

SRK promises to release ‘Ra.One’ trailer soon

All the fans of SRK, who have been waiting to get a sneak peek into his much talked sci-film ‘Ra.One’, would be happy to hear that Shahrukh has assured in the video clip that he will be releasing its theatrical trailer at end of this month, or on the first or second of next month.

Waiting to present the trailer, the actor revealed that he’s hopeful that the audiences would like it.

And on a scale of 1 to 10, SRK rated 7 out of 10 for the trailer, and said that he would keep back three, as he lightheartedly revealed that he’s humble and he wants to win over with his humility.

Rating about being on the video, SRK gave it a 5 from his side and for the other 5 he would wait for audiences’ feedback and if they liked his video, the actor assures that he would do it more often.

SRK throws a b'day bash for KJo at Mannat

The king of parties

The party was attended by who's who of Bollywood...Shah Rukh Khan organised a big bash for close friend Karan Johar on the latter's birthday, yesterday. However, he was photographed flaunting quite a morose look. We wonder if that was the after-effect of Kolkata Knight Riders (SRK's IPL team) losing to Mumbai Indians, last night.

SRK had an exemplary journey in the industry, says Anupama Chopra

Eminent film critic and writer Anupama Chopra’s new book ‘First Day First Show’ has already become a success with Shahrukh Khan’s write up in its introductory page.

In an exclusive interview with the IANS, when Anupama was asked why did she chose Shahrukh to pen down the foreword for her book, the writer candidly articulated that the superstar’s journey in the industry has been a very challenging and special one, and it is he who could summarize the changes in the film industry better than anyone else.

While addressing IANS, Anupama said, "I asked him to write the foreword because he is somebody whose career I have followed very closely and who in a sense to me is one who actually exemplified the journey. The three Khans have really spearheaded Bollywood. So for me he was the best person to encapsulate how much things have changed."

Anupama had earlier written King Khan’s biography that was titled as ‘King of Bollywood: Shah Rukh Khan and the seductive world of Indian cinema’.

About ‘First Day First Show’
Anupama’s new book ‘First Day First Show’ is all about the changes that have crept into the film industry, in the last 20 years.

‘First Day First Show’ is a collection of the author’s very own former write-ups.

Talking about her new book, Anupama said, "It's the collection of the work that I have done. The idea was to put the articles together so that it shows how much Bollywood has evolved in the last 20 years. It sort of becomes the history of modern Bollywood.

My relationship with film fraternity is very professional, says Anupama
