Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol arrive in New York, 100,000 people follow!

Shah Rukh Khan arrived in New York with Kajol, his 'My Name is Khan' (MNIK) co-star, on Sunday afternoon closely followed by 100,000 fans, on Twitter that is.

When Shah Rukh entered Twitterverse on January 3, we predicted he would have the largest following on the micro blogging site amidst all Indians. Within 15 hours of his first tweet, he had 10,000 followers, a little over 15 days later the number had crossed 100,000.

We expect Shah Rukh following to cross the million mark before the summer ends and we doubt any Indian could do better, which is one good reason why we expect the other Khans to stay out of Twitterverse.

Shah Rukh is a delight to follow on Twitter because he tweets straight from his heart. He uses Twitter to bare his soul, not promote his work, and his fans love that.

Shah Rukh is in New York to ring the opening bell for NASDAQ stock exchange as part of the promotional campaign for MNIK in the US. He and Kajol will ring the bell on behalf of Fox Searchlight Pictures which is distributing the film in the US market.

Meanwhile, the film's producer and director, Karan Johar, who is also a close friend of Shah Rukh and Kajol, is headed to London to promote the film in the UK.

After arriving in New York, Shah Rukh jokingly tweeted to Karan

@kjohar25 for a change kajol and me are doing the glamourous stuff & u do the hard work. heard everyone loved the film. u r a rockstar bro.

Maharashtra govt comes to SRK's rescue, warns Shiv Sena

Politics over Shiv Sena's violent protests against Shah Rukh Khan, calling him a traitor for saying that Pakistani cricketers should be allowed to play in the IPL, has intensified.

Maharashtra Home Minister RR Patil has now come out in open support of Shah Rukh Khan and warned Shiv Sena against disrupting the screening of My name is Khan.

"Shiv Sena will have to pay through its nose if it indulges in ransacking or disturbing theaters screening movies of actor Shah Rukh Khan," said Patil.

Patil's warning came after a group of Shiv Sena activists shouted slogans demanding that SRK go to Pakistan on Sunday afternoon outside the Bollywood superstar's residence Mannat in Bandra.

Now battle lines are drawn with NCP which holds the Home portfolio in Maharashtra.

NCP leaders also took the opportunity to target Shiv Sena chief over the flip-flop on cricketer issue

"Bal Thackeray must remember that he was the one who invited Pakistani cricketer Javed Miandad, who is related to India's most wanted terrorist Dawood Ibrahim, at his residence. He should apologise to India," said NCP Minority Wing leader Nawab Malik.

But Shiv Sena's traditional ally BJP has came out in support of the Sena.

"If you have to stay in this country, you have to respect and praise it," said Leader of Opposition in Maharashtra Assembly Ekanath Khadse.

In Nagpur, Sainiks went on a rampage vandalising posters of SRK's yet to be released film My Name is Khan.

They garlanded his effigy with shoes in Kolhapur and even left a calling card - a poster-size letter labelling Shah Rukh a traitor outside theatres and multiplexes in Thane.

Given the concern over repeated threats from the Shiv Sena, Mumbai Police are taking no chances and have stepped up security outside Shah Rukh's residence.

But Shiv Sena's strategy of trying to gain political mileage from one the country's most popular men and a youth icon could possibly backfire.

EXCLUSIVE: Shahrukh Khan and Kajol Visiting the N.Y. Stock Exchange

This event will be a great way for Shahrukh and Kajol to bring some attention to their upcoming film "My Name is Khan" which hits theaters on February 12. This is one of the most prestigious promotional events we have seen and who better to do the honors than King Khan.

Shahrukh and Kajol have been making magic on the screen for years. The world is eagerly waiting to see the two light up screens again in "My Name is Khan." With a new audience learning about the film on Monday, we can only expect that even more people will now be awaiting the release.

Congratulations to Shahrukh and Kajol for being the first Indian actors to ring the opening bell on the New York exchange. What do you guys think about this honor?

Security beefed up outside Shah Rukh Khan's bungalow

Security has been increased outside Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan's residence here after Shiv Sena activists intensified their protests against the actor for his remarks favouring inclusion of Pakistani cricketers in the IPL, police said.

Adequate number of policemen have been deployed at actor's bungalow 'Mannat' in suburban Bandra after receiving information that Sena activists would hold protest against the actor outside his residence, they added.

"We have an information that a protest would be held by some activists of a political party outside the residence of Shah Rukh Khan. We have deployed our men to avert any untoward incident during the protest," said Joint Police Commissioner (Law & Order) Himanshu Roy.

"Those violating the law will be dealt with very strict action," he said.

Sena's senior lead Manohar Joshi said, "Shah Rukh should not interfere in the politics.
