in Delhi.....

"Generally, sab aatankwad ke baare mein meri raye poochte hain. Shayad main Muslim hoon isliye. Lekin mera manna hai ki aatankwad ke baare mein kisi ki bhi do raaye nahin ho sakti."

"The Indian civilisation doesn't distinguish in terms of religion. We are an impossible achievement in the world and I'm very proud to be an Indian."

" Mere mohalle ki Ramlila mein maine vanar sena mein bandar ka role kiya hai. I've grown up reading the Quran, listened to the Gita, learnt Christianity from my school, and my wife is a Punjabi."

" My late father always said, 'Mazhab nahi sikhaata, aapas mein bair rakhna,' lekin aaj, har mazhab ke shaitanon ne, rakshason ne, apna ek naya religion bana liya hai...Terrorism."

" I want to live; we all want to live. It's our duty to wipe out terrorism, in thought and in deed. Believing in God, by whichever name we want to, is about leading a higher life. And there are no two ways about it."

MUMBAI: For many years, Zaheer Rizvi, an MBA from one of the country's top 20 business schools, nurtured a dream to meet his favourite star Shah
Property
Rukh Khan. He had made several attempts to meet King Khan in Mumbai for two years, but always ended up seeing the star surrounded by an army of bodyguards. The star wouldn't so much as give him a glance.

Rizvi's dream may finally come true. While everyone else frets about the real estate crisis in Dubai, Rizvi may actually use it to his advantage. After an over five-year stint as an investment banker with a financial institute in the desert state, he has saved enough to buy a villa in the same neighbourhood as his favourite superstar.

"I am in touch with an agent and my wife and I did like a villa in Jumeirah in Dubai, in the same area where Shah Rukh owns one. I may have to sell the property that I had bought in Mumbai for investment but I think it will be worth it," said Rizvi over the phone from Dubai. The villa in Jumeirah will cost Rizvi around AED 15-17 million or around Rs 18-20 crore.

A couple of years ago, several Bollywood stars had reportedly made a beeline for properties in Dubai, including Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan and the Bachchans. Shah Rukh's bungalow in Signature Villa on Palm Islands at Jumeirah was valued at around AED 58 million.

"No one can have two viewpoints about terrorism. There is no religion of terrorism. I am often asked my viewpoint on this, maybe because I am a Muslim and I am very proud to be a Muslim," said Shah Rukh.


"But I have read the Quran, listened to the Gita, acted in Ram Leela and learnt Christianity besides being a Muslim. My friends and I have worked on a film on Buddha (Asoka) and my wife is a Punjabi."

Can't have two viewpoints on terrorism: ShahRukh Khan

There is no religion of terrorism," said Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan in New Delhi Sunday evening at a public event a year after the Mumbai terror attacks.

"Indian civilisation does not distinguish in terms of religion. We are an impossible achievement in the world and I'm very proud to be an Indian," he added, speaking at public event held at the sprawling lawns of the India Gate to show the nation's solidarity against terrorism.

"No one can have two viewpoints about terrorism. There is no religion of terrorism. I am often asked my viewpoint on this, maybe because I am a Muslim and I am very proud to be a Muslim," said Shah Rukh.

"But I have read the Quran, listened to the Gita, acted in Ram Leela... and learnt Christianity besides being a Muslim... My friends and I have worked on a film on Buddha (Asoka) and my wife is a Punjabi," the super star stressed.

Shah Rukh joined a number of celebrities, eminent personalities from the worlds of arts and literature, and political leaders and school children to mark "A Nation In Solidarity Against Terror" event organised under the aegis of the ministry of home affairs (MHA).

Also present at the event were Home Minister P Chidambaram, Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit, lyricist Javed Akhtar, journalist Shekhar Gupta, shooter Abhinav Bindra and tennis player Sania Mirza to name a few. 

Singers Shreya Ghosal, Kavita Krishnamurthy, Shankar Mahadevan and violinist Dr L Subramaniam also performed at the event.

With a message "Terror has no religion. Our solidarity, courage and resoluteness are the answer to the threat of terror", it was hosted by actress-activist Nandita Das and directed by one-film old Feroz Abbas Khan.

Produced and managed by Wizcraft International Entertainment, the event was held a year after the final day when the siege in Mumbai last year ended (Nov 29, 2008).

It was supported by organisations including ONGC, Airtel, SAIL, State Bank of India, Apollo Tyres, Mahindra, Amity University, Reliance Industries, Reliance ADAG, GAIL, Aircel and Jet Airways.

Terrorism has no religion: Shah Rukh

The capital on Sunday evening saw a salutation to India and its integrity in the form of 'A Nation In Solidarity Against Terror'. Seen hobnobbing were representatives of all walks of life including Bollywood that was significantly represented by Shah Rukh Khan.

Organised under the aegis of the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA), a 60-minute event entitled at India Gate hosted by actress/director Nandita Das saw SRK speak his heart out with a somber mood on being an Indian, then Muslim and most importantly being 'one'.

The actor started by saying how proud he was about his nationality. "I am very proud to be an India. My freedom fighter dad like every dad gave me the teaching of 'Mazhab nahi sikhata aapas mein bair rakhna…'. But what is sad now is that these important teachings of childhood have now become dim, for, the devils of every religion have made their own religion called 'terrorism' and this religion only loves death. The choice in front of us is to either destroy or perish. We have to destroy this terror or else there will be only annihilation. I don't want to die, I want to live and I am sure you don't want to die too. So, the only idea is to believe in God by whatever name we address him. I pray to Allah that we be happy, our lives be good and we stay together", said SRK.

The event was intended to express the nation's solidarity against terror. The date was symbolic, since it was the final day when the siege in Mumbai ended last year.

Various artists, sportspersons and representatives of civil society from across the country came together to share the message of solidarity, courage and resolve to stand up against terrorist violence.

Other prominent persons who participated in the event included Rahul Gandhi, Javed Akhtar, Dr L Subramaniam, Kavita Krishnamurthy, Shankar Mahadevan, Shreya Ghoshal, Shilpa Rao, Shekhar Gupta, Abhinav Bindra, Sania Mirza and Feroz Abbas Khan.

The event was managed by Wizcraft International Entertainment.

The sole message conveyed by the event was: "Terror has no religion. Our solidarity, courage and resoluteness are the answer to the threat of terror."

India doesn't distinguish people on the basis of their religion and terrorists therefore can't use faith as an excuse, said actor Shah Rukh Khan on Sunday.

"Indian civilisation does not distinguish in terms of religion. We are an impossible achievement in the world and I'm very proud to be an Indian," he said while speaking at a public event at the India Gate to show the nation's solidarity against terrorism.

"No one can have two viewpoints about terrorism. There is no religion of terrorism. I am often asked my viewpoint on this, maybe because I am a Muslim and I am very proud to be a Muslim," said Shah Rukh.

"But I have read the Quran, listened to the Gita, acted in Ram Leela and learnt Christianity besides being a Muslim. My friends and I have worked on a film on Buddha (Asoka) and my wife is a Punjabi."

Shah Rukh joined a number of celebrities, eminent personalities from the worlds of arts and literature, and political leaders and school children to mark "A Nation In Solidarity Against Terror" event organised by the Union Home Ministry.

Also present at the event were Home Minister P Chidambaram, Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit, lyricist Javed Akhtar, journalist Shekhar Gupta, shooter Abhinav Bindra and tennis player Sania Mirza to name a few.

Singers Shreya Ghosal, Kavita Krishnamurthy, Shankar Mahadevan and violinist Dr. L. Subramaniam also performed at the event.

Washington, November 28 -- Photos of Michaele and Tareq Salahi with President Obama in the Blue Room of the White House were released Friday, proving that the gatecrashing Virginian couple, who got past layers of security on Tuesday night's State dinner, did, indeed, meet the president.

The annual film festival in Goa filled the fascination among the fans of King Khan when the premiere disclosed about the two minutes of anaglyph performed by Mr. Shah in Mr. Deshpande's upcoming film "Shahrukh Bola Khoobsurat Hai Tu".

Theme line of the film is about a Mumbaiya flower-selling girl who was spelled bound by the sudden spoken words of Shahrukh regarding her beauty. Mr. Deshpande told about the story, "This girl is in a very bad mood, when Shah Rukh, suddenly, as a matter of chance, passes by the street in a car and says 'tu khoobsurat hai!' [you are beautiful!]. It changes the life of this flower-selling girl."

"To change ugliness to beauty, that is the power of a star. I have seen Shah Rukh becoming that kind of a star over the years," director Makrand Deshpande told reporters at the 40th International Film Festival of India (IFFI) in the tourist haven of Goa.

The supreme success of The King Khan in last two decades is the only reason that inspired the directors and made the story line worth to be shown in the cinemas. "If he hadn't worked so hard to become that, this film wouldn't have been made," Deshpande said.

Though, Mr. Shah was absent at the premiere and Deshpande did miss him, "I wish Shah Rukh was here. I had invited Shah Rukh for the premiere of my film, but he told me that he would attend the opening night instead," Deshpande told reporters.

The Director, Deshpande and the Producer, Amarjit Singh, hope to release this movie in initial months of next year. "Yes, my film will definitely benefit from the fact that it has Shah Rukh Khan's name in it, at least till the marketing and publicity stage. After that it will work on its own merit," said Deshpande.

The Salahis were seen shaking hands with President Obama. Indian Prime Minister, Manmohan Singh, was seen smiling in the background.

It was only when Michaele Salahi posted pictures with Vice President Joe Biden and other guests of the State dinner on her Facebook page, that it become apparent that the duo was there for the dinner.

From a small time television actor to the reigning 'Bollywood Badshah', the man sure has come a long way!

Be it on popularity stakes, endorsement stakes or the sheer count of Bollywood blockbusters that the man has spawned, Shahrukh khan indeed is the definitive monarch of B'town right now.

And in yet another illustration of his numero uno status in Bollywood, the actor has now had a new movie named after him!

Yes folks! The Indian International Film Festival (IFFI), which is currently on in Goa, is abuzz with a movie called 'Sharukh Bola Khoobsurat Hai Tu'.

The movie reportedly narrates the story of a flower girl in Mumbai whose life turns upside down after a coincidental brush with Shahrukh khan.

Sounds like 'Nanhe Jaisalmer?'

Well, we say it's too early to draw parallels!

For now, let's just rejoice at the Badshah's latest brush with fame!

Dharma Productions' Kurbaan with Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor in the lead definitely got people across the globe to sit up and take noticeof it.

Rensil D'Silva's cross-genre flick that is a love story set against the backdrop of terrorism came in for a mixed view from its audience. However, Karan Johar is not shaken. "I know exactly what I'm doing," says Bollywood's prolific and progressive producer. He admits that his banner has in the past been associated with candy floss cinema. But from the start of 2009, Dharma is emerging as a formidable force, and has been making dramatic departures from its safe zone.

Says Karan, "With Kurbaan, we did make a complete departure from what we have earlier been doing. Whether it was Dostana or Wake Up Sid, we've been dabbling in different genres." He says that even those films were closer in texture to what he has been doing in the past — like a Kabhie Khushie Kabhi Gham or a Kal Ho Na Ho. "But," adds Karan, "in the case of Kurbaan, we moved away completely to address a serious issue. And, when we did that, we were well aware that we were treading on a new path. Reactions to the film may be mixed. However, it is my endeavour to raise the bar with each film that I undertake. And, to also make globally relevant cinema."

Of the firm view that the West is watching not only our economic progress but also taking interest in our cinema, Karan feels that, "Sometimes such cinema may not exactly get the box office that one hopes for, but that certainly doesn't shake my faith in this genre of film." KJo also feels that the synergy between him and UTV Movies with whom he associated for Wake Up Sid and Kurbaan is truly gratifying in that both production houses are invading a similar cinema space. And have a similar thought process. "UTV produced some of the most amazing films in the last couple of years," says Karan. "From a Mumbai Meri Jaan, Aamir, A Wednesday, Jodhaa Akbar, Wake Up Sid, Oye Lucky Lucky Oye and now Kurbaan — it has consistently backed progressive and meaningful cinema."

And while he will delve into relevant issues like terrorism and autism next (in My Name Is Khan), Karan will keep up the quintessential date movie like I Hate Luv Stories, a fun caper like Dostana-2 and the remake of the Hollywood flick Step Mom. No matter what, Dharma is a banner on a mission. They will never veer away from good cinematic content — be it realistic or pure fantasy.

If you were at Marine Lines late on Wednesday night and saw a frenzy of people and shutterbugs, well, it was because of the presence of King
Shah Rukh Khan




Shah Rukh Khan.


But the actor wasn't there for a shoot, nor was he promoting a film; he was there not as Shah Rukh Khan but as a responsible Mumbaiite. The actor drove all the way from his house in Bandra at 11 pm on the eve of 26/11 to write a heartfelt message as a tribute to the victims and martyrs of last year's terror attacks on Mumbai.

Nana Chudasama and Shaina NC's NGOs 'I Love Mumbai' and 'Giants International', along with 'Prism Stand Up and Act', had organised an artistic tribute in the form of a 1.5 km wall (the prominent Chandan Wadi wall opposite Marine Lines station) on which Mumbaiites could sketch, paint or simply write their thoughts and feelings. Hundreds of Mumbaiites added their touch to the Wall through the day, and SRK wanted to put across his personal message too. He chose a part of the wall which was painted a bright red and wrote in prominent black letters: 'Love, light and prayers to all'. His message was amidst hundreds of others that proclaimed their love for Mumbai and hope for a brighter tomorrow. He even appreciated some of the other paintings, was amazed that the entire length of the wall had been covered with messages and drawings and said that it was a "fabulous endeavour!"

The actor reached the venue around 11.30 pm and stayed on till midnight, bringing in 26/11 along with other Mumbaiites. He would have liked to stay for longer, but the gathered crowd didn't let him. He left soon after, but his message is more than just another brick in the wall!

Observing the first anniversary of 26/11 terror attacks on the film city, actor Shah Rukh Khan stood up for the martyrs and victims of the terror strike painting graffiti at Marine Lines on Thursday.

SRK lent his full support to Mumbai artists, who paid their tribute to the martyrs and victims of the terror strike at Marine Drive.

Hounded by the crowd, King Khan slowly but steadily made his way to the wall. While he painted his message, the crowd cheered him on.

Needless to say, SRK's presence at the venue helped the message to reach out to all Indians apart from the ones who already thronged the venue.

Mumbai: It seems like the magnetic personality of Shah Rukh Khan attract one and all. Ask the chubby-faced Anushka Sharma, who debuted opposite the King Khan in 'Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi'! The girl is still hanging on to the memories of working with the 'Baadshah' and cannot stop herself from speaking about him at any given opportunity. Recently, in an interview, the girl said, "One thing I can`t forget about SRK is his smell. He smells superb. He used to smell different each time. I would be like, `Wow man! Shah Rukh, you smell so good`."



Talking about how baffling, Shah Rukh can be, Anushka said, "If you think you know Shah Rukh Khan, you don`t. That`s the thing about him. He can always keep you guessing."

"Each day I used to be like 'Okay, he`s like this, oh no he`s not like that...' Every day he used to be a new person for me. He`s just so mysterious, yaar. I don`t know if you`ve heard anyone say it.... I can`t fathom him. I just can`t," the lass added.

We agree Anushka because 'Don ko samajhna mushkil hi nahi naamumkin hai'!

Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan says Shah Rukh Khan left him in a jovial mood after the latter called him to confirm his presence at the premiere of upcoming film "Paa".

"Shah Rukh has remained with me in the late afternoon. He is a very funny man and shakes me into joviality when I inform him about the premiere and his absolute presence there. He tells me, 'He is already there, black suited and with anticipation of seeing 'Paa'," Amitabh posted on bigb.bigadda.com.

"Aamir too communicates today and confirms his presence," he added.

The cast and crew of "Paa" – including Amitabh, Abhishek and director R. Balakrishnan have major plans for the film's premiere Dec 3 in Mumbai.

Amitabh plays a 12-year-old progeria patient in "Paa" and he had to stick on several pieces of specially crafted clay to get the right look for the movie. The disease causes premature ageing among children.

International make-up artist Stephan Dupuis designed Big B's look and the megastar had to sit for five-six hours for the make-up.

The 67-year-old says he is now anxious about how the audience and critics will react to the film.

"Slowly but surely the jig saw puzzle will begin to unfold. The test of all our hours and hours of effort at the film shall now be up for scrutiny. And within two hours and 14 minutes the verdict shall be passed. Once passed, shall remain passed. Such is the destiny of those that participate in this wondrous game of filmmaking," he said.

The film is releasing Dec 4.

Shah Rukh Khan was part of a peace drive in memory of the 26/11 victims.
Mumbai, which is still trying to recover from the scars of last year's 26/11 terrorist attacks, marked the first anniversary of the horrific incident, by lighting candles outside the Gateway of India and at the Taj Hotel and prayed for tranquility and a brighter hope for the city that saw 166 innocent people killed without reason.

Mumbaikars went around the Taj Hotel; one of the sites attacked by terrorists, chanting slogans of peace and reminiscencing about those who had died last year during a three day siege.

"We want peace. We have come to pay homage to our soldiers who laid their lives for us and for the country," said Shakuntla Devi, a local.

Hundreds of youngsters, men and women, drew paintings, wrote peace messages and put hand impressions on a one-and-a-half-kilometer long wall on Wednesday (November 25) - saying the city stood united against any future attacks on this cosmopolitan fabric.

Some of the peace messages and symbols like red paint symbolising blood, black paint symbolising fear and death and messages like 'we will not forget' featured prominently on the wall.

Shaina NC, a Mumbai-based fashion designer-turned politician, and one of the brains behind the wall, said the wall was an outlet for Mumbai residents to pour out their feelings.

"I think Mumbai is definitely more sensitive, if you take this as a viewing what has happened today in this one-and-half-kilometer you will see how beautifully people envisage a brighter future, a future of unity, and that happens with togetherness," she said.

Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan also wrote his own message of peace on the wall.

Ten gunmen had landed on Mumbai shores by boats at sunset on November 26, 2008 and fired randomly inside a railway station, a Jewish settlement, a cafe and two luxury hotels.

Several people were held hostage for the next three days and at least 166 died before commandoes smoked out the last of the terrorists on November 28 last year.

One gunman, Mohammed Ajmal Kasab, who claims to be Pakistani national, was taken alive and is presently, facing trial in a special court in Mumbai. (ANI)

Hrithik Roshan doesn't want to take any risk with his forthcoming flick 'Kites'. So, he has further deferred the release date of the movie. It is said that he has done it because Shah Rukh's 'My Name Is Khan' is releasing around the same time. The release of 'Kites' has been postponed to March 2010, as the Roshan is wary of SRK starrer 'My Name Is Khan', which is releasing in February 2010. Though Hrithik attributes the postponement of 'Kites' to the inability of finding an overseas distributor, filmi circles say that the Roshans are scared of SRK-Kajol starrer. The SRK and Kajol's pair manages far more scorching chemistry in one scene than all the Mori-Hrithik skin-show put together in Roshan's venture, it is learnt.

This seems to have become a national issue. Farah Khan working with Akshay Kumar for her next directorial venture appears to be nothing short of Sonia Gandhi suddenly deciding to join BJP (sorry, couldn't think of a better analogy). Pretty much making all around headlines, the news of Shirish Kunder turning producer for Tees Maar Khan which stars Akshay Kumar, is directed by Farah Khan and doesn't feature Shah Rukh Khan anywhere in close vicinity, has been the hottest recipe of the season. Over to Shirish who bares his heart out and tells Joginder Tuteja all about the past, present and future of his debut production.

Really, is it that big an issue which is being made out currently? Just like an actor has all the right to work with any director, same holds good for a filmmaker too, isn't it?
Forget the entire point around a director looking at working with his/her favourite actor. The point here is why are some sections of media hell bent on calling this as a war or something. It isn't as if Farah isn't working with Shah Rukh Khan at all. Her Happy New Year is still happening with him and it is pretty much a part of the plan. It's just that in the time available to her, she is plugging in another film that happens to be with Akshay Kumar. However, why is everyone trying to find a controversy here? It isn't as if Farah has dropped plans for Happy New Year and has replaced that with another film.

It isn't as if Farah has dropped plans for Happy New Year
Perhaps all these talks stem from the fact that Farah Khan has been known for her affection towards Shah Rukh. Also, she is believed to have stated around the release of Om Shanti Om that she would work mainly with Shah Rukh, as apparent in her first two directorial outings (that include Main Hoon Naa).
Maybe, maybe. In any case, it was me who was supposed to direct Tees Maar Khan first. It's just that when Farah read the script, she jumped on it. She said - 'Wish, I could make this film'. The moment she said that, I gladly handed over the script to her. It's as simple as that.

It was me who was supposed to direct Tees Maar Khan first. It's just that when Farah read the script, she jumped on it
Really, was it that simple?
Yes, really. See, anyways Farah and I were looking at getting a production house started and Tees Maar Khan seemed like a good opportunity to do that. What better way to do that than split responsibilities and have it as an entire in-house affair. I couldn't have definitely handled both production as well as direction departments. This is why I decided to get the show running by donning a producer's hat while Farah picked up the directorial reins. Tees Maar Khan is anyways a very Farah Khan kind of film!

What makes you say that?
You must have seen Om Shanti Om and Main Hoon Naa. You would certainly be aware about the language that she talks. Her films are meant to be complete masala entertainers that cater to all segments of audiences and Tees Maar Khan does exactly that. I am so convinced that we have the best case scenario here.

Was it equally challenging to convince Shah Rukh Khan as well who must certainly have been hoping to feature in each of Farah Khan films? Or was he not required to be kept in loop?
When I was writing Tees Maar Khan, I always had Akshay Kumar in mind. So there is no question of Shah Rukh feeling upset or anything. He knew about the film from the very beginning so obviously there were no questions to be asked when Tees Maar Khan was announced with Akshay. Now if someone out there wishes to get 1 and 1 together then we can't help that, right?

Shirish Kunder
Well, this 1 plus 1 stems from the hot topic making the rounds that you and Farah went ahead and signed Akshay quietly because Shah Rukh had roped in Reema Kagti instead of you for his film The Zoya Factor.
Yes, even I read about this from papers. However, the fact is that I had nothing to do with The Zoya Factor. I wasn't even aware of a movie like this till I read about this so-called controversy. I have been so involved writing Tees Maar Khan that there is nothing else on my mind for all these years.

Tees Maar Khan is anyways a very Farah Khan kind of film
This is something that makes one wonder that how do you intend to stay away from direction for so many years. Your Jaan-E-Mann came 3 years back and now that you have got into production for Tees Maar Khan, it would be at least one more year before you get behind the camera yourself. Isn't the director in you craving to call the shots?
It is, it is (laughs). But then kya karen, we also have to set up our production house. Even that is important. Maybe when things settle down, I will fulfil my love for directing movies.

If I get involved in a project, I really get hands on
Perhaps you could get your first love of editing movies come in handy for Tees Maar Khan. After all before turning a director, you had edited quite a few flicks in the decade gone by?
(Laughs) Yeah, if time permits then why not? If I get involved in a project, I really get hands on. Like in case of Jaan-E-Mann, I had even done the background score. Though I really don't know how much time I will actually get for Tees Maar Khan. Running a production house is a full day job yaar!

So when do you get the film on floors?
That should be in March 2010.

And how about the leading lady?
We are still hunting for her. She could be an established actress or a new girl. We are open to both.

"Shah Rukh always knew about Tees Maar Khan" - Shirish Kunder

Shah Rukh Khan sure has a Midas touch. Whatever he touches turns gold and whatever he discards turns gold for others!

Call it a reality or just a co-incidence, but whatever role King Khan has refused it became a gain for other actors. When he rejected Lagaan, it was Aamir Khan's gain and so was the case with many other stars like Sanjay Dutt, Anil Kapoor, or even Madhavan.

Did you know that Rajkumar Hirani's first choice for Munna Bhai was not Sanjay but SRK? He said no to Hirani and Sanjay went on to become one the biggest sensations as Munna Bhai.

For Lagaan too Ashutosh Govarikar wanted SRK, but he had some date issues and could not do the film. The role then went to Aamir, which took him close to the Oscars.

Even Danny Boyl had approached King Khan for his Oscar-winning Slumdog Millionare but SRK said no to the role and it went on to resurrect Anil's career and made him a hot property in the west.

Madhavan's role in Rang De Basanti too was initially offered to SRK and his 'no' made Maddy the star that he is.

So, shouldn't all these stars get together to say a big 'thank you' to King Khan with the golden touch!

James Cameron´s ´Avatar´ To Say ´My Name Is Khan´!

In a shocking development, Farah Khan is slowly distancing herself from her best buddy and 'rakhi brother'. Recently, Farah announced that her next directorial venture,...

Tees Maar Khan, would star Shah Rukh's arch rival Akshay Kumar who will also produce the film along with Farah's husband Shirish Kunder.

Buzz is that Farah signed Akshay because she was upset with Shah Rukh for making her re-write Happy New Year three times and turning down husband Shirish's Joker.

When contacted Farah tried her best to downplay the incident, "Everyone knows the bond that Shah Rukh and I share. I respect and adore him but I have to be there for my husband. Today Shirish needs my support and he is family." Didn't Farah call Shah Rukh family in the past; after all he gave her away to Shirish at their wedding!

Farah clarified that her casting Akshay hasn't spoiled her relationship with SRK, "Everything is fine between SRK and me. I informed him much ahead that I was signing Akshay and he has wished me all the luck. He even offered any help that I'd need."

Farah may try hard to convince the world and herself that things are good between Shah Rukh and her, but industry insiders say that war lines have been drawn. An extremely reliable source reveals, "Shah Rukh asked Farah to re-write Happy New Year thrice. He also announced that in 2010 he would be focusing on his home productions Ra1 and Don 2. Farah felt that Shah Rukh was only delaying her film and he was never interested in doing it. A disillusioned Farah then offered the film to Akshay who gladly jumped on board."

Shah Rukh's constant disapproval of Shirish is, reportedly, one of the main reasons for Farah's dismay. A source close to Farah reports, "Each time Shirish would offer a film to SRK, he would be asked to rework it and this would upset Shirish and Farah."

A once permanent guest at all Mannat events, these days Farah is rarely seen at SRK's parties and is reportedly also distancing herself from SRK's clique. An industry source tells, "Farah realises that to be a smart businesswoman she needs to be friends with everyone. She therefore needs to be in the good books of all the top actors. She cannot afford to be known as SRK's exclusive director as that was crippling her, so she invited Salman Khan to open her first talk show which was an astounding success. Sources say this annoyed SRK as Salman is his arch rival."

Shah Rukh is reportedly livid with Farah. He gave Farah her directorial break, and has a done a lot for her so naturally her joining hands with Salman and now Akshay, has angered him. Shah Rukh hasn't publicly commented on the Akshay-Farah tie-up but, one wonders if this is just the calm before the storm…

Shah Rukh Khan is gearing for the promotion of his film "My Name is Khan", which is due for February 2010 release.

SRK has already chalked out plans for the film's promotion. His strategy is to launch a full scale publicity campaign of the film immediately after the release of Aamir's "3 Idiots" on December 25, the last big film of 2009.

Shah Rukh will soon be flying to US to discuss the marketing and promotion ideas with the team at Fox STAR Studios, the distributors of the film.

The movie will also release in Hollywood in a big way at the same time.

Moreover, SRK is reportedly aiming to feature on the covers of several leading international magazines and prominent news channels.

The Khan blast could end up affecting Hrithik's "Kites", which too is due for release early next year. The Roshans are still in search of a Hollywood production house that they can team up with for the international release of "Kites".

Mumbai: If the latest buzz is to be believed, superstar SRK and his fashionable wife Gauri are apparently all geared up to conquer the small screen. Gauri Khan is reportedly all set to come up with a TV show for a popular channel that will be based on investigative crime stories. While Shah Rukh is reportedly keen to do a TV show like 'America's Next Top Model'.


A source reveals that Khans' production house is working on short crime stories on the lines of the hit TV show 'CID'.

On the other hand, grapevine has it that SRK has already roped in none other than Bipasha Basu for 'Female Model Hunt', which will be the Indian remake of 'America's Next Top Model', hosted by Hollywood sizzler Tyra Banks.

Now, who, other than Bips, would have been a great choice to be Tyra Banks of India! With such a perfect casting to begin with, SRK's show is surely going be a hit.

Apart from various biographies and coffee table books about superstar Shah Rukh Khan, the actor is also busy writing his autobiography, and for a while now. Knowing King Khan's wit, humour and also his knack of speaking extempore and at length about any topic, it is but obvious that just like his blockbuster films even the book is keenly awaited. So what is the actual position?


As per SRK himself, he is on verge of completing it and the autobiography has an account and experiences of almost 20 years of his life. Shah Rukh also expresses his happiness at the fact that an endeavor into which he has put in a lot of effort, passion and time is finally concluding.

Knowing how anything connected with Bollywood's global superstar has grandeur and at the same time class associated with it, we look forward to the account of his life by the man himself!

SRK's autobiography on verge on completion!

It's busy season for Karan Johar. Wake Up Sid was warmly recieved, Kurbaan is coming right up and every single waking moment of his is currently spent in working on his upcoming directorial project, My Name Is Khan, starring perennial favourites Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol.

The director in him is stepping well out of his comfort zone, even as the producer within is enjoying handing over the reins to first-time directors who, he claims, are making films he can't possibly helm on his own.

In the first part of this long conversation with Raja Sen, Johar discusses his kind of cinema, honesty as a filmmaker, and being unfaithful to the Dharma Productions family.

When you look at films that you wouldn't be comfortable doing, is that out of choice or ability? Like when you say you couldn't make a Wake Up Sid...

Oh, there are a lot of films I can't do. And I look at them sometimes happy I can't do them and sometimes really sad I can't do them. For the lack of a better word, maybe I'm not talented enough to execute a certain kind of a film.

When I saw Rang De Basanti, I was so floored by the way it was shot and executed, and I was like 'sh*t, I can't do this,' and I feel limited sometimes. And then I see some films and I'm like 'I can do this and I would have done it better,' you know?

But it really depends on how honest you are to yourself, and you have to know and understand what you are and what your limitations are, and you have to address some of your delusions. I think most of us are delusional. Very rarely do we put ourselves out there and really understand what people think of us.

 

So external criticism doesn't matter as much anymore...

I mean, who doesn't like to hear praise? We all do. Come on, all of us in the business love reading great things about us. And it pains you to read some terrifying reviews and you cringe everytime someone criticises you, from your dress sense to your sense of cinema. But at the end of the day, you have to know that that's the way it is, and that's the business you're in.

You're in the only business in the world that's judged on one friday, globally. And your failure and success are highlighted with equal measure. So what do you do? You chose to be here. And there are so many great perks that come out of it (smiles)

Coming back to the bit about being suited for a kind of cinema... Accepted that you know your creative space, but it has to be said that you've been altering your subjects quite significantly with each film, most drastically perhaps with the next one. Do you then just look at a personal connect with the script when deciding what film to make next, and does that evolution from subject to subject proceed alongside your personal growth?

What works for me in My Name Is Khan is my personal disconnect from the script. I was part of the research, part of the thought process. But I wasn't involved in the minute scripting level, which Shibani [Bathija] actually wrote, and I found that for me, as a director, that worked really well.

When I write the material on my own, I lose objectivity. And I perhaps don't have the ability to strike that, that sense of 'I wrote this [but] I don't need this', but now I can look at Shibani's work from the outside, and have a clear perspective.

Now because I'm so away from it and so detached, I almost have the sense of a cinegoer directing a film. And I don't mean that creatively, I'm detached from owning it. I almost feel like I'm living in a flat that I don't own. So I will treat it really well because it's not my own, but I'm not hysterical about it. I'm not hysterical if you drop a bit of paint on my sofa, or if you clutter the kitchen.

I'm not hysterical, and so, I sleep better at night. And because of that, I'm calmer at doing what I do. And I feel I'm making, therefore, a far more honest film.

They say Bollywood is one big family. And attending premieres of each other's films certainly a part and parcel of the ways of the tinsel town. In a latest, Amitabh Bachchan has confirmed that Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan will grace the premiere of Paa, where Big B plays a 13-year old boy afflicted by the rare disease progeria.

Bachchan writes on his blog, "And now for the bad news. The London and Dubai premieres stand cancelled. Several issues have cropped up and it would not be prudent to go ahead with it, under such uncertain pressures and circumstances. But Mumbai is on ... at the IMAX Wadala on the 3rd of December and Aamir and Shah Rukh have both assured me of their presence there, today, as I begin to send out letters and requests to block said date from the Industry."

In the same post, Bachchan praised the regional press for their incisive questions and informed fans that he's going to Chennai to "get an idea of the mechanics that go behind a final product - background and sound and effects and titles and sub titles."

Sure, there's a lot that goes behind making a film. Especially, when you have the biggest star of Bollywood in it.

It's SRK's turn to do a bit of Dadagiri now. And that too with Sourav Ganguly. Speculation was rife about who the celebrity guest would be for
Shah Rukh Khan



the grand finalé of Dada's quiz show.


The one name that frequently came up was that of King Khan. With Sourav as the Knight Riders' captain, it was but obvious for many to guess that the Badshah would come down to Kolkata for Dada's gameshow.

News is that SRK has indeed given his nod to this. Says Sanjoy Chatterjee, senior VP and business head of the regional channel, which airs the show, "It's confirmed that SRK is coming down in mid-December for shooting the grand finalé. Due to the highly competitive environment, we can't divulge any further details about the format of that show. Besides, we are also talking about two very high profile celebs." Ask Chatterjee how much of clout Sourav wielded in getting SRK on board and he says, "Dada has played an important role in getting SRK. Dada is extremely involved with the show and interacts freely with both celeb guests as well as regular participants on the show."

It now remains to be seen how SRK fields Dada's googly on the sets!

If sources are to be believed, Katrina Kaif is all set to turn a producer. And guess what? She wants to cast Shah Rukh Khan in the lead opposite herself.

Kareena has zeroed in on a French film that's she's really liked and is going to remake it in Hindi after acquiring the rights.

With almost all her movies becoming big hits, Katrina is now thinking about some serious business. Nowadays she is seen taking keen interest in the finer points of film production and is also meeting a lot of trade guys.

She is interacting a lot with the producers whom she has worked with to get some in-depth knowledge about filmmaking.

Katrina was also seen bonding very well with SRK at Subhash Ghai's party recently. At that time itself rumours were doing rounds that the two are planning to do a film together. However, it seemed that SRK has offered a role to Kat, but now it is the other way round, with Katrina offering him a role in her film.

Katrina feels that there is no other actor as romantic as Shah Rukh and so for her romantic movie, SRK will be the man for her.

Did we read Salman anywhere? Probably he is not part of Kat's love story!

The two Khans are likely to come together onscreen…and the credit goes to Danny Boyle. The Slumdog Millionaire director's next project is Bombay Velvet where one could see the two rival Khans together! Danny is producing this movie which will be directed by Anurag Kashyap.

If sources are to be believed, Danny has already confirmed Aamir while he has been on talks with Shahrukh.
The film is a period movie based on real incidents and set in the backdrop of Mumbai in 1940s. The suspense thriller is basically a trilogy and the film is divided into three parts.Danny has already signed Aamir for the third part in the lead role, while he is still on discussions with Shahrukh for the protagonist in the first part. For the second part, John Abraham is expected to play the male lead where he would be playing a real-life hero for the masses.

If everything goes well and as planned, the movie will be on floor by next year. Let's keep our fingers crossed! There won't be anything as exciting as seeing the two Khans together on silver screen with John as an icing on the cake!!

JLo is probably eating her heart out. 'Coz the new toast of the debonair circuit has slightly different initials — KJo.

But envy won't get her (or anyone else) anywhere, simply because Karan Johar has worked his butt off — planning, focusing and making his dad, Yash Johar's banner, Dharma Productions, proud. Suddenly it's an unstoppable juggernaut. Dostana, Wake Up Sid, now Kurbaan with My Name Is Khan and Stepmom to follow, even as his team of directors is plotting the next scripts.

"These young directors today, Tarun, Ayaan, Rensil, Siddharth and others directing for Dharma, they're geniuses," says the stylish producer. "They're steps ahead of the way we thought earlier. They've taken cinema to another level. Look at the themes — comedy (Dostana), adolescence (Wake Up Sid), terror-sensitivity (Kurbaan), poignancy (MNIK) ... it's incredible. I only wish dad was with us today. To see us take his legacy of honesty and credibility forward. Yes, hits help us financially, but we're not greedy. We also want to give back quality cinema with conviction and good viewing. Otherwise, right now I have only Kurbaan on my mind. I'm very excited about it because it has been a subject close to my heart for a while now and I'd been tossing it around in my head. Then I asked Rensil (D'Silva) to write it and develop it for me. And I was so taken by his passion for the subject, that I asked him to direct it himself. And the result is crackling."

Elaborating on the November 20th release, Karan says, "The story addresses the perpetually looming threat of terrorism, the film lends emotion into that graph. It has a point of view. That's the path. Of presenting this threat in a logically, emotionally, sensitively cinematic manner. I'm quite delighted with the final product." But there had been a thought in Karan's mind, some time ago, to cast SRK in the lead role in this subject? "Maybe it was a thought a long time ago. Simply because SRK is emotionally a part of everything I do. Even before I wake up to box office figures, Shah Rukh calls asking, 'How're the collections dude? ... How's it going?' He's part of Dharma. However, that said, after the way the film has shaped out, Saif and Kareena are ideal casting," smiles KJo.

And how dissimilar is My Name Is Khan from this subject? Isn't that Karan-directed venture also a 'terrorism' subject?

"Not at all. My Name Is Khan is totally different inasmuch it doesn't deal with terrorism at all. That's all media conjecture. Wait for that one as well." What we couldn't wait for was his response to Kareena's recent joke that KJo was like a 'witch', that everything he said was almost prophetic. Karan couldn't stop laughing: "We have this strange Karmic Connection and I feel the need to be as protective about her as ever. I love Kareena to death. We fight too. We didn't speak for a year. I hurt her and she hurt me. But one only fights with those one loves. Now that we're past the initial hurdles, we're the best of friends. And you have to see her in the film to believe what she's capable of. As for the 'witch' part, I wish I could prophesize the success of Kurbaan for starters ... that's all I pray!"

Heartthrob Hrithik Roshan seems very careful with his much-anticipated flick 'Kites'. According to the latest news, the release date of the film has been delayed further because Shah Rukh's 'My Name Is Khan' is releasing around the same time.


Reports reveal that the release of 'Kites' has been postponed to March 2010 apparently because the Rohans don't want to take any risk and are wary of 'MNIK', which is releasing in February next year. However, grapevine has it that the actual reason of the delay I that Roshans haven't been able to find an overseas distributor has yet.

Refuting the rumours, Roshans' spokesperson said that a distributor has been found, and the delay is only because Rakesh Roshan wants it that way.

Well, we can easily believe this. Who wouldn't be scared of a SRK-Kajol starrer, a couple that manages far more fiery chemistry in one scene than all the Mori-Hrithik skin-show put together.

"I was looking for a very popular voice... which people can easily recognise and could think only of Shah Rukh. He readily agreed to lend his voice and I am thankful to him for that," Aftab told IANS.

He admits that a producer's job is more difficult than an actor's, having experienced both sides now.

"This is my debut production, and I found that a producer's job is tougher than that of an actor," Aftab said.

"While doing other films I had to concentrate only on acting, but in this case I had to be multi-tasking, which became tough at times," he added.

"Aao Wish Karein" is like a fairytale where a child's life gets transformed after his wish to be a grown-up actually materialises, said Aftab.

Aftab Shivdasani, who has turned producer with his just-released "Aao Wish Karein", says he is grateful to superstar Shah Rukh Khan for having
lent his voice to promote the fairytale love story.
"It's a very positive story about hopes, imagination, wishes and miracles," he added.

"'Aao Wish Karein' is a full-fledged entertainment which a family can enjoy together," he said.

Directed by Glenn Baretto, Aftab and Aamna Shariff play the lead roles in the film.

Aamna, who became a household name after featuring in popular daily soap "Kahiin To Hoga", forayed into Bollywood earlier this year with "Aloo Chaat", in which she also paired opposite Aftab. The two are rumoured to be dating each other now.

"Aao Wish Karein" is Aftab's fifth film this year after "Daddy Cool", "Aloo Chat", "Kambakkht Ishq" and "Acid Factory".

While he played Akshay Kumar's brother in "Kambakkht Ishq", the other films turned out to be duds. Aftab is, however, optimistic about his debut production.

"This is a very sweet and simple romantic fairytale and I am sure people will enjoy watching the film," Aftab said.
