In her long answer, she disclosed 12 things about the superstar, which will warm your heart. Here you go: 1.

Image
Even though it’s been a longtime since Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan sorted out their differences and became friends again, it is still a joy to catch them bonding and chilling together, like it happened at TOIFA 2016. We first brought to you pictures of the two Khans rehearsing and then hanging out together and now we hear this… So we know that Dubai is second home for King Khan and the actor threw a grand bash at his hotel suite post the award ceremony, as reported by Mid-Day. The list of invitees included Ranveer Singh, Jacqueline Fernandez, Parineeti Chopra, Yo Yo Honey Singh, Sanjay Leela Bhansali and of course, Bhaijaan Salman! Reportedly the two Khans partied hard and spent a lot of time talking to each other. Both of them were bonding big time as their talks went on till wee hours in the morning! A few days ago, fans of these friends-turned-foes-turned-friends-again had another reason to rejoice as Shah Rukh Khan gave surprised Salman a big surprise. 

Differences with Salman won't be resolved publicly: SRK

Image
Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan says his longstanding disagreements with Salman Khan will not come to an end courtesy a film, a filmmaker or an actress. And neither would it be on a public platform. The two Bollywood icons, who did films like Karan Arjun and Kuch Kuch Hota Hai  together, had a major fight in 2008 at Salman's then girlfriend, Katrina Kaif's birthday bash. Even as Katrina hopes to produce a movie featuring Shah Rukh and Salman, SRK says it's not going to happen - not at anyone's behest. "My thing is that we had a little bit of personal issue. This is not the first time. It was four years ago and it had been before. We (Salman) have been very close for 20 years and even more. From the time I came, I respect his family and the fact that they gave me so much of love. I can never be disrespectful about that. Having said that, we have grown together." "We have certain things similar and certain things which we completely disagree on...

New Delhi:  For Shah Rukh Khan, life seems to have come full circle just before he completes the silver jubilee of his career in acting and showbiz. In 1988, his powerful portrayal of Commando Abhimanyu Rai in the TV series "Fauji" virtually launched his acting career and made him a popular face throughout the country. And now his role as army man Samar in Yash Chopra's yet untitled film has stirred a buzz. "When Shah Rukh Khan goes back to his roots, his 'Fauji' days, wears a uniform and then there's a combination of a love story, produced by (Yash Raj Films), the house of romance, directed by Yash Chopra himself, the film is bound to create buzz," film critic Omar Qureshi, told IANS. At 46, the superstar doesn't just paint a perfect, military print uniform-clad, intense look but also reflects his fit, powerful and impactful demeanour through the first few looks of the movie, which will release Nov 13.

Image
Mumbai: It looks like Kabir Khan's  Ek Tha Tiger's success has brought some good news for bothSalman Khan and Shahrukh Khan fans. A while ago, Katrina Kaif had said that both the Khans have now moved on. Well, that wasn't just a mere statement. It is true that Shahrukh and Salman are no longer enemies. During a latest interview with the Zoom TV, Salman said that he has forgotten his enmity with Shahrukh and has moved on. "There was a time when Shahrukh and I never got along well, in fact, we don't get along now either.. It's not that there's any enmity. Whatever happened in the past is all forgotten. More than us, people have hyped our relationship. We are not in a boxing ring, we are mature people. He should beat me with his work and I should beat him with my work." Well, we wonder, how this miracle happened! There was a time when the duo would never leave a chance to pounce on each other for whatever may be the reason, and today, it's a c...

Shahrukh Khan’s baggage arrives in Berlin, King to attend DON 2 premiere at Berlinale

Image
SHAHRUKH KHAN This is the latest on Shahrukh Khan and the 62nd Berlinale saga. In the DON 2 press conference it was announced that the King’s baggage had already arrived at the Berlin airport, which should be taken as an indication that the King would also be in Berlin very soon. He has very few options left. SRK cannot disappoint his fans here. The poor turnout of journalists at DON 2 press conference is a clear proof that Berlin is King Khan’s territory. If he does not show up, nobody else will, neither his fans nor the world media. They don’t much care for his advance guard and nothing less than the king’s presence will bring cheer to th...

I’ll destroy you, SRK said to Shirish Kunder

Concerned Sallu calls up Shirish Kunder after SRK bashes up his director friend He may be shooting thousands of miles away in Cuba but the aura of Salman Khan was presiding over the most interesting maar-dhaad in recent memory. On Monday morning, at a suburban night club where Sanjay Dutt had thrown a party to celebrate the success of his new film, Shah Rukh Khan bashed up an inebriated Shirish Kunder for misbehaving with him. And for good measure, Sanjay Dutt too slapped the director who was as high as a kite, and clearly overestimated his physical prowess. So where does Sallu come into the picture? Film editor and director Kunder who is married to Farah Khan is a known Salman acolyte and after the famous falling out between Salman and Shah Rukh, has vocally showed his support for the former. After RA.One's lukewarm reception he had tweeted, "I just heard a 150 crore firework fizzle." Kunder was also the reason for the end of the SRK-Farah Khan fri...

D’Decors Brand Ambassadors SRK and Gauri Khan

Bollywood Superstar Shahrukh Khan and his wife Gauri Khan have for the first time teamed up together to endorse D’Decor, the world’s third largest furnishing company, as its brand ambassadors. ‘I feel very humble and happy when any company signs me as their brand ambassador and so I am very happy to be part of D’Decor,’ Shahrukh told reporters at the Taj Lands End Hotel where he and his wife were officially declared the brand ambassadors. Gauri, who was also present, said: ‘I haven’t worked so hard ever, so after working for two long days, I slept last two days. It was a fantastic experience.’ Shahrukh, like a sweet and protective husband, made sure Gauri was comfortable. He helped Gauri in the slightest of things like holding the microphone properly so that the media could hear whatever little she had to say. Ajay Arora, managing director of D’Decor, decided to sign them as brand ambassadors because he felt they were the best examples of perfect homemakers. ‘We t...

Shah Rukh Khan calls Karan Johar to 'assist' with Ra.One

When it comes to mushy romantic sequences, even if they are for his high profile superhero action flick Ra.One, Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan apparently bets only on his best bud filmmaker Karan Johar. He flew away to London on Friday, reportedly to direct some romantic scenes, including a song, for Ra.One, featuring the Shah Rukh and Bollywood beauty Kareena Kapoor. Shah Rukh tweeted Karan's arrival saying, "Been hectic days...with shoot going all around. Today Karan came to shoot...making him attend some action stuff, he looks most out of place." Apparently Shah Rukh was not too keen to let the film's director Anubhav Sinha, who has earlier directed films like Dus and Cash, direct these crucial scenes and there have been 'reports' of arguments between the two. SRK of course didn't even blink at these reports and tweeted, "Anubhav and RA.ONE team has worked so hard...I will always be indebted to them for this experience ...

Ambani, SRK send flowers on Uddhav b’day

Mumbai On his 50th birthday on Tuesday, Shiv Sena executive president Uddhav Thackeray received bouquets from unexpected quarters — Shah Rukh Khan and Mukesh Ambani. It was only two months ago that the Sena had threatened to stall the actor’s movie My Name is Khan for supporting Pakistani cricketers, and slammed the Reliance chairman for saying “Mumbai belonged to all Indians”. In fact, the Reliance group went a step further and released a full-page advertisement with Uddhav’s photo in Sena’s mouthpiece Saamna on Tuesday. “Uddhavji received a number of bouquets from sainiks, businessmen, industrialists all over the state but it was quite surprising to see bouquets from Khan and Ambani. Like others, they also sent their wishes,” said a source. However, it was the Sena who had taken the first step to ease things by inviting Ambani for its May 1 function to celebrate 50 years of Maharashtra’s foundation. The industrialist had chosen to stay away. Khan, for his part, had publicly sai...

My Name Is Khan Movie reviews

Mayank Shekhar : Hindustan Times A commercially successful, massively scaled mainstream film that doesn’t just make a song and dance of it all could certainly change Bollywood forever. Of all, I’m glad Johar also made that move. Sure, this movie’s a risk. Shouldn’t each be anyway? Gaurav Malani : INDIATIMES MOVIES Like his placard that reads ‘Repair almost anything’, Shah Rukh Khan makes up for every minor inconsistency in the film. My Name is Khan is worth a watch on his name alone. india-server.com ‘My Name is Khan’ is definitely a movie of substance and is a must watch for both Shah Rukh’s fans and the ones wanting to see a logical nice movie! Anupama Chopra : movies.ndtv.com Rizwan is undeniably the best thing about My Name is Khan. Shah Rukh’s performance has little subtlety about it – for that watch Hugh Dancy doing Asperger’s in Adam – but it is heartfelt, endearing and more controlled than anything he’s ever done before. Watch him in a lovely scene in which Kajol accept...

Shahrukh Khan: A Friend In Need Is A Friend Indeed!

It was very much a party to remember when Hrithik Roshan (actually his wife Suzanne) had invited the entire young gang of bollywood for the birthday party which took place after awards function. Now what we all know by now is that ShahRukh invited all of them to his house ‘Mannat’ after the party . As everyone got together there at his place, there was a slight bit of an uncomfortable chill that was seen amongst the guests. Now that there was some bit of tension was immediately noticed by King Khan. He soon realized that it was due to the presence of the two not so good friends Abhishek Bachchan and Viviek Oberoi. Thus, true to his name the enigmatic Khan got up and made the ice thaw between them. According to a close source, the whole situation was handled with great care and maturity and ShahRukh with his boyish charm made all his guests very comfortable so as to mingle with ease and enjoy the party which they all needed to unwind their jaded nerves. After that what went on till...

Shahrukh Khan, Salman Khan and Aamir Khan – how about a movie starring them all?

What if the three Khans of Bollywood come together in a Hindi movie? I know it’s almost impossible to cast them all together, but still no harm to imagine, right? Let’s see the movie through our mind’s eye… 1. Title of the movie – “Hello Brothers” (derived from Salman’s Hello Brother!)? Or “Bollywood ke 3 Taare Zameen Par” (Aamir’s Taare Zameen Par)? Or the best name…“Our name is Khan”! No better option, I guess! 2. Producer – Keeping in mind that both SRK and Aamir have produced films before, either one of them could be randomly picked as an option. 3. Story writer – This one for Salman Khan please! He couldn’t be the producer so let him be the writer for the movie. Well, he actually wrote for “Veer”. 4. Director – Ashutosh Gawarikar or Sanjay Leela Bhansali…both have worked with either two of the actors . 5. Lead Female – Rani Mukherji, Kareena Kapoor and Kajol. Actors free to choose their ladies! All of them have worked with all the three Khans. 6. Story – Three brothers’...

My Name Is Khan Movie Story

Image
Shahrukh Khan In “My Name is Khan”, SRK is playing the character of Rizvan Khan. This person suffers from Asperger’s Syndrome, which is an autism disorder and is characterised by difficulties in social interaction and behaviour. Half of the film is a true story based on a couple’s life in LA. Karan bought the rights of the story from them. For the role, Shah Rukh has to gain weight, and that is what he is doing currently. “The role requires me to have a fuller look,” said the actor who has plunged into his character already and is doing research on autism to see how complex these individuals are. “I am reading, watching documentaries, meeting people who are affected by autism and doctors who deal with it. It’s very unnerving and I salute parents who bring up children with any disorders,” said SRK.
