SRK wants kids to watch Avatar

Last evening Shah Rukh Khan was the special guest at the screening of James Cameron's ,Avatar at a suburban Shahrukh khan with his family multiplex.

Shah Rukh was so enamoured after watching half the film, that he came out of hall and went up to the studio officials and requested them to organise a special screening for his two children and family members. The officials of the studio immediately assured him that they will do the needful.

A source said, "SRK has always been quite fond of science fiction and superhero films. Even as a child, he would always watch similar kind of films.This is why he immediately agreed to attend the special screening of Avatar.

He was also keen to attend the screening of Avatar at the suburban multiplex as the first theatrical promo of his new film My Name is Khan was scheduled to release during the screening. Everybody knows about SRK's love for superhero films so much so that he is right now in the process of making Ra.

One, which will be directed by Anubhav Sinha. SRK loved Avatar, which is why he also wants his kids to watch it."

Earlier this month, SRK's children couldn't wait to watch Paa and Amitabh Bachchan had sent some extra passes for them on SRK's request. "Aryan and Suhana love films and they would love to watch Avatar. The kids could not watch it last evening with SRK as they were busy with their school and studies," added the source.

Vijay Singh, Indian CEO of the company which produced Avatar, confirmed the news and said, "Shah Rukh was very excited about Avatar and the scale on which it was made. He requested another screening on Saturday so that he could watch the film again with his family. We will definitely and will decide on the venue and time today."
