Shah Rukh on Salman’s ‘10 Ka Dum’

After ‘Mr Perfectionist’ Aamir Khan graced the sets of Salman Khan’s ‘10 Ka Dum’ with nephew and debutante Imran Khan, the King Khan is all set to make an appearance on the same.

According to reports, Shah Rukh has given his consent to appear on the show for the sake of good friend Sallu. Apparently, Salman Khan is trying hard to persuade his good friends like Rani Mukerji, Preity Zinta and others besides SRK to make a single show appearance on Salman’s hit show ’10 Ka Dum’.

It is believed that the shows starring Bollywood biggies including- SRK, Rani and Preity will be shot sometime in August if things work out well.

Incidentally, according to the industry insiders and TV trade pundits it is all thanks to Salman’s heavy duty show ’10 Ka Dum’ that SRK’s ‘Kya Aap Paanchvi Pass Se TezHain’ has run into rough whether.

Though SRK’s second coming on TV ‘Paanchvi…’ was never well received at the first place, but it seems that it was the beginning of Sallu’s show that is proving to be the last straw. It is believed that ‘Paanchvi…’ producer Siddharth Basu is already contemplating KBC 4 with SRK to replace the ‘Paanchvi…’ debacle.

With such tough competition on the idiot box amongst the Bollywood biggies, it will be interesting to watch who wins the race, but as of now just sit back and get set to catch the two ace Khans’ setting your TV sets on fire!

Well, if not on the big screen, it will be quite an experience to check out the 'Har Dil Jo Pyar Karega' team on the small screen!

I'm not bothered about Manoj Kumar: Farah Khan

Director-choreographer Farah Khan has sought to bring the curtain down on a raging controversy over the depiction of Bollywood veteran Manoj Kumar in her film Om Shanti Om, saying she isn't "bothered" about him any more.

"I am not bothered about him anymore," said Farah over the phone when asked for her reaction to Manoj Kumar's decision to file a case against her over his portrayal in the 2007 blockbuster.

Manoj Kumar had told a media outlet he would be filing a case against the makers of Om Shanti Om as they have not kept the promise of deleting the scenes that mock him.

He had said that he gave the nod to the film because of the intervention of the legendary director Yash Chopra who had mediated talks between him, Farah and Shah Rukh Khan, who starred in the movie.

Manoj said all of them had mutually agreed that the objectionable scenes would be deleted but this was not done.

On being asked if the scene was shot keeping in mind the artistic liberty of the film industry, the offended actor had said: "I had studied in school that liberty is the undying passion of the mind and one cannot use it to humiliate others. This is an insult to Indian nationalism and patriotism."

Manoj Kumar had taken objection to the scene in which his younger double was shown being beaten up by the police outside a movie theatre since they could not recognize him.

He had also objected to another scene in which Shah Rukh delivered a mock "Thank you" speech in a drunken state and concluding by saying he was Manoj Kumar.
