And now, A Case Against SRK for Appearing in Liquor Ad!

A day after an NGO issued a legal notice to Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan for smoking in public, a case was filed against the actor in a local court here for allegedly promoting alcoholism by appearing in a liquor commercial.

A case was also filed against the manufacturer of 'Master Stroke Delux Whisky', the brand endorsed by the film star.

In a petition filed before Chief Judicial Magistrate Deepesh Tiwari, complainant Vinod Kumar Tripathi said he saw a hoarding of the whisky brand featuring Shah Rukh Khan with a catch line, 'Success needs a master stroke', reading which people were purchasing the brand.

The petitioner while filing the case demanded action against the actor for promoting alcoholism.

Advertising any of the alcohol or tobacco-based product and its consumption at public places is banned in the country.

On Friday National Organisation for Tobacco Eradication (NOTE) had issued a legal notice to the actor for smoking in public during two recent events - the Twenty20 cricket match in Mumbai and Hindustan Times Summit in Delhi.

Karan Johar's "My Name is Khan"

First things first, will we officially get to see the SRK-Kajol combo? Komal claims, "Yes, Kajol and Shahrukh will both be starring the film." I'd prefer to wait for Karan's word on the casting.

Though Karan himself claims it's essentially a love story, sources suggest that it will have a political backdrop. Komal confirms, "It's about how the minority community is unnecessarily being targeted and they are always looked down upon with suspicion. Karan has almost completed the screenplay and it's very emotional. If it's made the way he visualizes it, he will have Muslims eating out of his hand." What a comment!

Shah Rukh Ran Through Fire for Om Shanti Om

Om Shanti Om is a film set in a 'film backdrop'…

Yes, the much-awaited film is all about the making of films and is set in the '70s. It will portray the film industry of the '70s, the bell bottoms, side locks, flashy, colourful shirts et al. I think the term Bollywood is a coinage of this period as it witnessed the making of the maximum number of classics. I have grown up watching these films. I love Sholay, Amar Akbar Anthony, Zahreela Insaan… and Rishi Kapoor's romantic films. My name in OPM is Om Prakash Makhija as my father in the film is a huge fan of Om Prakash.
