Teach my husband a few romantic lines, says Sania Mirza

Tennis star Sania Mirza insisted that Shah Rukh teach her shy husband Shoaib Malik some romantic lines at the recent Sahara sports award function.

"Shah Rukh's strength is the way he talks and he also romances in a very charming way in his films. So, I asked him to share some tips with Shoaib and teach him a few romantic lines so he would talk more. It was all done in good humour and Shah Rukh was pulling our leg all through the act," said Sania.

Shah Rukh also made Sania and Shoaib shake a leg with him at the function.

An eyewitness present at the awards function said that for the first time after their wedding, Sania and Shoaib were seen together at an awards function.

"Shah Rukh, known for his sense of humour, was anchoring the show with Sania. In an impromptu question and answer session, SRK asked Sania about their marriage, romance and kids," he said.

SRK also tried to get Sania and Shoaib's love story out of Shoaib's mouth but Shoaib refused to divulge any details.

"All Shoaib said was that theirs was an ideal example of 'love at first sight' where he proposed to Sania and she instantly agreed," said the eyewitness.

Sania said that Shoaib talks very little and believes that true love doesn't need any expression.

Shah Rukh called Shoaib on stage and asked him to repeat some romantic dialogues as Sania had insisted.

"I have known Shah Rukh from a long time. Both Shoaib and I watch his films. The three of us danced on a song from Veer Zaara," said Sania.

She said that the Sahara India Sports Awards was a whole new experience for her. "This is the first time I hosted a sports awards and it was great fun.

There was an act where I had to hit a tennis ball with a cricket bat in Shoaib's direction as he was sitting there.

A day before the show, during the rehearsals, the act wasn't coming out well and I thought that I might make a fool of myself at the show, but luckily, I managed to pull it off and everything went smoothly."

SRK gets a rare honor to sign Town Hall's guestbook

Its not rocket science that Bollywood Superstar Shahrukh Khan has many firsts and many 'rare honours' attached to him. He added yet another rare honour to his credit, when he recently visited the Rotes Rathaus; Berlin's Town Hall and met its gay mayor Klaus Wowereit. He did so during his visit to Germany, as he is shooting there for Farhan Akhtar's Don 2.

SRK also got a rare honour of signing the guest book at the Town Hall. By doing so, he became the first Indian actor to be given the honour. Way to go, Shahrukh!

Look who’s kissing Shahrukh Khan

It’s a picture that is doing the rounds of cyberspace, and being avidly discussed — but actor Shah Rukh Khan seems unperturbed by it.

The picture is a snapshot of Shah Rukh kissing British television personality and actor John Barrowman apparently on the sets while filming a TV show.

DNA mailed the picture to Shah Rukh’s staff members to check its authenticity and they replied saying that the picture is of an actual incident.

“There is nothing to hide about it. This particular scene was originally a part of My Name Is Khan. If you go to the deleted scenes section in the DVD, you will find the shots there,” says a source.

SRK’s staff members also confirmed the claim. According to sources, director Karan Johar originally had thought that he would include this in the film in the overseas version but later decided against it.

Though the smooch is doing the rounds of a few Indian sites titled Superstar Ka Gay Kiss and on a lot of video sharing sites, no attempt has been made so far to remove the scene from the net. It is increasingly getting popular as more and more sites are picking it up.

“There is nothing to hide as the smooch was done in jest and there was a context to it because it was a hilarious situation.

Seeing the kiss as a separate entity from the situation will be wrong. Everybody, right from Shah Rukh to Karan, thought that it is a hilarious situation. But later those shots were edited out of the film. We should see it progressively, in context of the programme and also keeping in mind the sensibilities of that country,” the source adds.
