SRK to miss his Don sequel?

Date: 5 Jul 2008


Shah Rukh Khan?s date-book is so packed that he is scrambling for dates to shoot for Farhan Akhtar?s sequel to Don, the shooting of which was supposed to start in January next year. The film, as of now, has been delayed.

Shah Rukh, who is currently on vacation in London, has a packed schedule when he returns to India. He will start shooting for Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi as soon as he lands in Mumbai and then he will be busy with Priyadarshan?s Billoo Barber.

After the above two films are over, Karan Johar has booked Shah Rukh?s dates for My Name is Khan and then he will be busy with his own production Happy New Year which is to be directed by Farah Khan.

He will also be busy promoting his other venture that is an animation film titled Ravan. Insiders close to the project reveal that Shah Rukh really wants to do the film but to date, he has not found dates for Farhan. Farhan, on the other hand, really wants to have him in the sequel and so he is directing Voice from the Sky first and will then move over to the sequel.

Sources add that if the there is a major schedule crunch, then Shah Rukh will opt out of Don 2.

When contacted, Farhan was defensive while talking about the fate of Don 2. ?Things are looking good for Don 2 and we hope to start in the beginning of 2009,? he says.
But the interesting bit came when we asked him whether Shah Rukh and Priyanka are a part of the sequel. ?We plan to have some of the cast from Don in the sequel,? he adds.

We pressed him harder on the issue and he tells us, ?I?m beginning with Voice from the Sky first. It is too premature to talk about all this now.?

SRK Konnection

Date: 9 Jul 2008




Shah Rukh Khan may not be starring in Aziz Mirza?s Kismat Konnection, but he?s invisibly there in the project alright. This Shahid Kapur-Vidya Balan starrer has inputs galore from Mirza?s dear friend SRK.

Said a source close to the film, ?Shah Rukh and Juhi Chawla share a special bond with Aziz Mirza. They are like family to the Mirzas. Aziz considers them lucky for him?.

Added our source, ?Going by the comfort level and the rapport that the two share, Mizra had several meetings with Shah Rukh at his place, Mannat to discuss the script of Kismat Konnection.?

Mizra?s directorial debut Circus starred Shah Rukh when he was a newcomer and since then, Mizra has worked with Shah Rukh films like Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman (1992), Yes Boss (1997), Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani (2000) and Chalte Chalte (2003).

When contacted, Mizra said, ?Shah Rukh and I go back a long way. We always discuss ideas with each other. And so he gave me feedback on this film too. It is not a big deal.?

SRK handcuffed!

Date: 9 Jul 2008




For the first time on Star Plus? Kya Aap Paanchvi Pass Se Tez Hain?, watch Shah Rukh Khan as a contestant on the show.

Yes, you got that correctly! Shriya and Shreeparna are up to mischief with Professor Shah Rukh Khan as they summon him as a contestant in the show and ask him a really silly question which had no answer.

After a bit of running around behind the naughty classmates, Shah Rukh proceeded the game with last week?s contestant, Alka Tiwary, and the new contestant Yug Tulli.

Tulli, a wild life enthusiast, management student from Nagpur, also has some interesting hobbies like playing squash, wild life photography and playing street magic. He played one such trick on SRK and actually handcuffed him. After doing so, he asked SRK to look in to the camera and say, ?Don ko pakadna mushkil nahin hai.? Yug aims to donate 50 per cent of his winnings on the show to wildlife conservation.

The third contestant on the show is 61-year-old, must say 61-year-young, Kusum Kaura from Secundarabad whose beauty besotted Shah Rukh Khan. He also said that Kusum looks like his favorite actor from yester years, Mumtaz. This beautiful and graceful lady is a very intelligent lady who will surprise you with her wit. Did she become a crorepati on the show? Or did the Nagpurian take big bucks back home?

To know this and watch more fun-filled moments, watch Kya Aap Paanchvi Pass Se Tez Hai? on Friday, 8 pm. Also answer all the homework questions and win rupees one lakh sitting in the cozy comforts of your house.
