Will SRK make a good superhero?

Share This Post

Shah Rukh will next be seen as an electricity-zapping sci-fi character in Ra.1.

WOW!
Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No… it’s SuperRK!! Headline writers are getting their puns ready but Shah Rukh has already been Bollywood’s Hero for years and now he’s finally getting ‘Super’ officially added to his title. His star quality generates enough sparks as it is, but throw in his character’s rumoured ability to solidify electricity and he’ll be zapping the box office as he flies through the sky, those sexy dark eyes flashing behind his mask. Any old superhero can save mankind and get the girl, but how many have SRK’s added singing and dancing superpowers? Pow!

[And remember kids, anything is going to better than Abhishek’s Drona....]

ER...
Superman’s tight red underpants, Batman’s ninja-biker chic – obviously the basis for any good superhero is a skintight, form-revealing costume. Now, we know what you’re thinking, that SRK looks more than ok in a snug vest. But at 5’6” and over 40 it takes more than airbrushed abs to cut the mustard in a pair of tights and a few strategically placed bits of rubber. If only it were Arjun...

Shahrukh with the stunts while Kareena looks sexy!

As news of the shooting progress of Anubhav Sinha's most ambitious superhero flick, RA.ONE filters in, the buzz and the excitement seems to be building up with each passing day. The film will see Shah Rukh Khan performing some amazing daredevil action sequences with the help of world class special effects. And recently there were some talks that the lead actress, Kareena Kapoor too will show off her action talent in the film. So, how true is that?

Well, sorry to disappoint but Kareena is certainly not following her DON co-star Priyanka and performing action sequences/ stunts in RA.ONE. The lady who is seeing some pretty good times ever since her first all time blockbuster in form of 3 IDIOTS and recently being voted India's most beautiful woman, clarified that she will not be performing any action scenes in RA.ONE.

However her fans need not be disappointed as Kareena also stated that it will be Shah Rukh who will be doing the stunts while she will look sexy and beautiful in the movie.

Certainly, a sexy Kareena will definitely make RA.ONE a hotter proposition!

Happy Fathers Day from Shahrukh Khan!

This day gives us the opportunity to show and express our love and care. It’s an appropriate platform to look at our children and credit them for bringing joy and happiness.

Happy Fathers Day! Someone rightly said ‘Any man can be a Father but it takes time to be a dad’… and that someone was just right!

Who is Dad? He's the mess-maker, rule-breaker, risk-taker and the opposite of Mom who is usually seen as the creator and nurturer. But for all his mischief, dads are doing something quite right! I am happy to know that most of you have joined me in “Pappu and Pappa” campaign and have made a move towards being the family man and taken to spending quality time with your kids. Father’s Day is our day, to celebrate ‘being dad’. This day gives us the opportunity to show and express our love and care. It’s an appropriate platform to look at our children and credit them for bringing joy and happiness.

After all, a child gives birth to a Father as well. But even though it’s celebrated once a year, it’s the ever after effect of being a Father that will keep us connected. A father’s role means different to different people so I cannot do justice by trying to define it. But in the traditional way, we hold the role of being the head of the family, protector and role models to our children. We are definitely the more unpredictable lot with our kids. At times we may have rocked our kids more than their moms have and rolled on the floor foolishly to play.

So moms and dads are indeed different. And we know we cannot be like the mothers but we do know that we can make all the difference by being right there. I understand it’s not easy but I appreciate the effort that’s being put in by all fathers, as more and more fathers are becoming aware and taking their role and responsibility seriously and turning into great dads. For this moment, I dedicate a song for our special day…..Will Smith’s "Just the Two of Us" which celebrates Fatherhood And… dear dads you can do more… Wish you a Happy Fathers Day!

Shahrukh Khan Steal the Show at Raavan London Premiere

Share This Post

Raavan much hyped premiere in London wasn’t only about crazy fans and thumping of dhols.

Even as Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya basked in the limelight at the British Film Institute, Shah Rukh Khan’s presence on the red carpet — with his wife Gauri and daughter Suhana — cut a more interesting picture.

SRK and the Bachchans, who were believed to be involved in a cold war, bonded big time at the premiere.

Also, it’s interesting to note that SRK was the only star to make an appearance on the red carpet besides Raavan ’s cast and crew. And King Khan was full of praise for the film and the Bachchans.

“ Aishwarya, Abhishek, Amit ji , Mani Ratnam — all my favourite people here. It couldn’t be a better evening to meet your friends, see such wonderful performances, see one of the finer films the country has made... the kids are very fond of Abhishek... so they all wanted to be here ( London),” said SRK. SRK and the Bachchans’ latest show of bonhomie comes after SRK backed out from IIFA awards at the last minute citing “ too much work.” For those who came in late, Big B is the brand ambassador of IIFA. SRK was also supposed to captain the film team in a friendly cricket match against the Sri Lankan team.

In 2008, SRK raised eyebrows when he attended the red carpet premiere of Drona . Since then, SRK and the Bachchans have been very warm to each other.

For the uninitiated, the rivalry between SRK and Bachchans reportedly kicked off after SRK replaced Big B as the host of the TV show Kaun Banega Crorepati and also acted in the remake of the Amitabh Bachchan’s 1978 hit, Don . But for some time now, the Bachchans and Shah Rukh have been bonding through Twitter. A few days back, Big B tweeted: “ Shah Rukh ! ( I) believe Abhishek spoke to you about the premiere in London and you, Gauri and the kids are all coming... Wonderful ! See you there.” SRK had tweeted back promptly: “( I) will do sir... ( I) hope I finish all work here and make it. ( I am) very excited to see Raavan . All the best to all and love.” SRK, who is believed to be busy with his ambitious home production Ra. One , specially took out time to reach London for the premiere.

The Bachchans can’t seem to thank him enough. Big B has thanked SRK repeatedly through his Twitter account. “ Spoke to Gaurima ( SRK’s wife Gauri). We now need to do a night back in Mumbai. Thank you again for coming. You made my night!” tweeted Junior Bachchan. At the premiereAbhishek said “ Shah Rukh is like family”. SRK and the Bachchans seem to be going all out with their friendship. Khan said at the premiere that he is “ a little biased towardsAbhishek” adding that Ash is a way too fantastic an actor for him to comment on.

Later he tweeted to Big B: “ Thanks sir ( I) had a great time... the film is really nice.”

Who's hotter than Ash? SRK says he had the 'hottest girls' with him

With Big B, Abhishek Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai and Shah Rukh Khan at the ‘Raavan’ premiere in London, it was bound to be a starry affair (Check out the premiere pictures in our photo gallery).

Fans crowded the British Film Institute in Southbank to catch supposed rivals Big B and SRK together. So among all those big names, who really rocked the red carpet? According to SRK, his escorts at the premiere were the ‘hottest girls on the red carpet’. So was he talking about Aishwarya and wife Gauri? No, it was actually his daughter Suhana and her friends!

SRK posted their picture on his Twitter account and wrote, “Dressed for ‘Raavan’ premiere...had fun on the red carpet...also i had the best 3 girls as escorts. My escorts for the premier...the hottest girls at the red carpet - Suhana, Rysa, the littlest one, Ananya, Alia and me the hunk. My soccer team is also this with a few more players missing tonite.”

He then posted a picture of Gauri, and said, “This is how Gauri is post midnite. Cindrella after the pumpkins gone ha ha.”

Abhishek, after reading SRK’s posts, replied back, “Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you for coming! Love you. And now waiting for you to come and fire me!”

And then SRK got talking to Abhi about meeting up again. “Had a great time. U all have worked so hard & good in the film. Was a great evening. R u also going to india..or do we have a party date sometime in london??? enjoy the film...u deserve to. lov to all"

Abhishek confirmed the meeting plans saying, “Yes, spoke to Gaurima. We now need to do a night back in Mumbai. Thank you again for coming. You made my night!”

And what else happened on the night? Well, the atmosphere was electric and the thumping of "dhols" mesmerising as the Bachchans, the first family of Bollywood, walked the red carpet.

"It's wonderful. Look at the reception we’ve got. We are feeling on top of the world and we are so happy that we came to London to premiere the film," said Abhishek, 34, who walked the red carpet hand-in-hand with Aishwarya.

Aishwarya, 36, added: "We love the fans here... They are out here appreciating our hard work... so it's time to say 'Thank you'."

Considered the biggest ever premiere for a Bollywood film in London, the event stopped the evening traffic near the venue as fans tried to catch a glimpse of the stars. Some even climbed up rooftops and cars to get a glimpse of their screen idols.

It had all the trappings of a Hollywood premiere, with the film's cast walking over a red carpet lined by fans on both sides.

Aishwarya, a well-known name in the international arena, was happy to see crowd cheering for her husband. "They are screaming out for Abhishek... I'm noticed. I'm happy," said the actress, who seemed to be enjoying every bit of her husband's company.

Abhishek, who plays the villainous Beera in 'Raavan', was looking dapper in a pink shirt, dotted tie and jet black tuxedo, while Aishwarya looked elegant in a subdued Sabyasachi Mukherjee sari teamed with a heavily embroidered full-sleeved blouse.
