SRK dances, charges a bomb

The King Khan may have got Hrithik and Rakesh Roshan to do OSO for free. But when the Roshans approached him for a cameo in their film, Krazzy 4 he didn't think twice before charging them a bomb.

And given Shah Rukh's popularity, Rakesh had little option but to shell out the amount.

Sources insist that Shah Rukh had demanded a little over a crore to be part of the song. Though no one is ready to confirm the figures it looks like Rakesh has had to cough up the dough.

The song has already been shot at Yashraj studios and took five days to be picturised. Composed by Rajesh Roshan, the breezy track is sung by Vishal Dadlani

Krazzy 4 is being directed by Raja Sen who has been Rakesh Roshan's assistant for a long time.

Unlike 2007, this year does not have any full-fledged Shah Rukh Khan releases. Bhoothnath and Dulha Mil Gaya of which he is a part are not exactly centred around him.

But then again to make crores even without a single release you have to be Shah Rukh Khan, don't you?

SRK to perform at Balaji awards

Shah Rukh Khan will perform in the grand finale with leading small screen actresses at the Global Indian TV Honours presented by Balaji while Lara Dutta will get jiggy with a couple of TV’s male hotties.

The event will be held on February 1 at the Andheri Sports Complex.

It is learnt that SRK was first slated to perform with the 11 Chak De! India girls, but that didn’t work out.

Says a source, “The finale starts with SRK’s solo performance and then moves on to his dance with 11 TV actresses. Shah Rukh might even make an appearance as he did in his yesteryear soap Fauji.

The reason we are keen on having Shah Rukh was because he began his acting career with TV, went on to become a megastar and last year came back to TV with Kaun Banega Crorepati.”
Chloe Ferns from Balaji adds, “Shah Rukh’s act will be one to watch out for.”

The actresses that will shake a leg with King Khan are likely to include Smriti Irani, Mona Singh, Navneet Nishan, Neena Gupta, Prachi Desai, Anita Hassanandani, Gautami Kapoor, Sakshi Tanwar and Rajshri Thakur.
