SRK-Katrina in Yash Chopra’s next

Shah Rukh Khan is going great guns. Yash Chopra who last directed the actor in Veer Zaara four years ago, is all set to wield the megaphone yet again and he is very keen to cast Khan again in a mega multi-starrer.

Reportedly the film is an intense romance, and will star Katrina Kaif opposite Khan. According to reports Khan has agreed to star in the film. Said Monika Bhattacharya of Yash Raj Films, “Yash Chopra is directing a film, and is presently working on the script. There are a lot of speculations that Shah Rukh Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Madhuri Dixit and Katrina Kaif are part of the film. But Yashji only decides the cast when he finishes the script so as of now, no one has been finalised.” The film goes on the floor next year.

On the other hand, Shah Rukh’s production house Red Chillies Entertainment has branched into television software production and is set to launch its first show on NDTV Imagine. The comedy series is reportedly based on Shafi Inamdar’s hilarious Yeh Jo Hai Zindagi and is titled Ghar Ki Baat.

Shah Rukh it seems is personally involved with the show, and was present at the shoot of the pilot episode on October 23. Juhi Babbar essays the role played by Swaroop Sampat in the original, and Sumeet Raghavan is her co-star.

Shah Rukh’s stage show Temptation Reloaded, may have missed out being in Europe but really rocked Dubai audience on October 26 . The auditorium with a capacity of 22,000 was spilling over with 26,000 strong hysterical fans who cheered King Khan as he descended on the stage on a magnificent throne. He was followed on the stage by the hunky Arjun Rampal and the gorgeous girls Kareena Kapoor, Katrina Kaif, Anusha Dandekar. The surprise of the day was Gauri Khan and Arjun bringing a cake on the stage and cutting it with Khan as it was their wedding anniversary that day.

Meanwhile, SRK has agreed to accept the title of Datuk bestowed upon him by the Malacca Governor for popularizing the beautiful World Heritage Site in his movies, One 2 Ka 4 and Don.
