Ranbir Kapoor in awe of Shahrukh Khan

The newest stud in Bollywood, Ranbir Kapoor, is merely four films old, but he is already being compared to the Badshah of Bollywood, Shahrukh Khan.

Well this comparison comes easy, as Ranbir does romantic scene with as much ease as the suave Shahrukh Khan, who is a veteran in enacting romantic scenes.

When we asked Ranbir about this, he said, “I think comparing me with Shahrukh Khan would be like insulting him. Till now, I have done only 3 films, which are by no ways a parameter to compare me with him. In my last film ‘Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani’ I have played a romantic character, where in ‘Rocket Singh –Salesman of the year’ there is romance, but on a different level.”

Well however hard Ranbir might try to deny, the fact remains that people like him in romantic roles, as he sure is a charmer! No doubt Ranbir must be happy to be compared with Shahrukh, after all it is SRK who is the benchmark of success in Bollywood these days.

Shahrukh Khan is the “Salesman of the year” and the ‘biggest’ salesman too!

No, the title is not wrong! It is Shahrukh Khan, the Salesman of the Year who is standing with the same title as Ranbir Kapoor. While Ranbir has the title of Salesman of the Year for his latest flick Rocket Singh, here we have another superstar to have the accolade.

Shahrukh could be called the Salesman of the Year as his magic is the profit bringer for Linc pens. Shahrukh has renewed his contract as the brand ambassador for Linc pens and extended the deal for another year.

It all happened so that Linc management felt that their sales are high since Shahrukh has been with them as the brand ambassador. That’s why they had decided to cash on SRK to keep increasing their brand visibility to sky limit.

An ever so gentleman Shahrukh said, “It has been wonderful being a part of the Linc team for the past year and I am glad to continue the association. Over the years, Linc is one of the most trusted brands in the Indian writing pen industry and I am happy to be associated with the Linc family.”

As a matter of fact SRK has endorsed maximum brands on TV in 2008-2009 according to a recent survey by TAM Media Research as his name is saleable like anything. He has been endorsing 39 brands at present including Nokia, Pepsi, Hyundai, Airtel, Emami, Videocon, Sun Feast, Tag Heuer, Dish TV and Linc.

Linc, one of the largest branded pen industries, never had a celebrity brand ambassador till it had chosen Shahrukh Khan. They felt SRK is someone who personifies style, entertainment and popularity and the characters resonate well with their products and brand attributes. So he fit so well!

Hmmm…well chosen by Linc! Shahrukh would definitely get you higher in industry and we mean it. After all, the King Khan is the ‘biggest’ salesman of the year!

ShahRukh-Kajol starrer ‘My Name Is Khan’ to be unveiled on 18th December

The 1st looks of the much awaited Karan Johar movie that spins around an autistic Shah Rukh Khan amidst the backdrop of terrorism will be put on public display on 18th December along with the Indian release of James ‘Titanic’ Cameron’s ‘Avatar’.

The director Karan Johar, who kissed meteoric success with his mega-hits like ‘Kuch Kuch Hota Hai’ and ‘Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gam’, is pretty anxious and animated about the opening trailers. He is leaving no stone unturned in his desperate bid to create a huge frenzy after the teasers hit the screens next Friday. He has been working incessantly in the editor’s room as he wants the best possible look of the preliminary promos. And he’s certainly losing sleep over this. Primarily, because this is his most proactive mega-project and secondly, because his last film ‘Kabhi Alwidaa Na Kehna’ was given a thumbs down by both critics and the spectators.

We hope, this time around, he will create the right buzz and the final product will be worth a watch. The film releases on last quarter of February.

Kareena Kapoor is desperate for Shah Rukh Khan

There was a time when Kareena Kapoor blushed and sighed at the mere mention of Shah Rukh Khan. Confessing to be his biggest fan, the stunner couldn’t stop raving about King Khan as she publically requested filmmakers to cast her against the talented actor.

But with her request snubbed and ignored, the heartbroken lady has now decided to stay mum on Shah Rukh Khan.

She might be the most coveted actress in B-town, working with top-notch actors, but Bebo is feeling gloomy, as she is yet not approached to work with SRK. Talking about her hopes to work with SRK, the actress said, "I’d love to work with SRK again. I’m sure something is in the wings.”

Ask her what’s in the pipeline and the superstitious actress quickly says, "I don’t want to talk about it and jinx it, but I know that in his heart SRK knows that I want to work with him and we will work together”.

Slamming reports that it was her on and off equation with SRK that was the root cause of her troubles, Kareena said, "Gauri, SRK, Saif and I are very close; we’re always dining at each others’ homes.”

Well, that should put all rumours to rest.

Shah Rukh Khan´s Autobiography, ´20 Years To A Decade´, In April 2010

It is by now well known that Shah Rukh Khan's autobiography is on the verge of completion.

Sources who have been priveledged enough to go through a few chapters, disclose that that it is very unlike the Shah Rukh Khan we know of as Khan has totally underplayed himself.

Tentatively titled '20 Years To A Decade', the autobiography is scheduled to be out in April 2010.

Karan sleepless for My Name is Khan

Karan Johar knows that first impression is the last impression. The first look of his much-awaited film My Name is Khan all set to hit the theatres on December 18 with the Hollywood blockbuster Avatar.

As a result, Karan is having sleepless nights just to make sure that the first look creates the right buzz about the film. Karan did not sleep starting Saturday morning to Monday morning as he was busy finalising the first look of My Name is Khan.

A source said, "My Name is Khan, starring Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol, is one of Karan's most ambitious film to date more so because it is a subject that he has never attempted to make so far. He also cancelled his trip to LA to finalise the film's first look over the weekend. He reached office early on Saturday morning to start working on the edit and didn't stop till Monday morning 7am. He must have barely taken an hour-long nap in those two days. SRK too joined him on Saturday night and they had a meeting about how they plan to go about promoting the film. SRK saw some portions of the first theatrical promo and then left the Dharma Productions office early on Sunday morning. However, Karan continued to work and only left on Monday morning after he was satisfied with the first look."

Karan remained unavailable for comment. He probably was catching up on his sleep after the marathon edit session.

ShahRukh Khan: Hats Off to you King Khan!

The recent reports that actor ShahRukh Khan wants to do porn has created a buzz around that whether this bit of news was true or not.

The ShahRukh fan club has many arguments against the view, and people are asking that why should an actor of his stature want to do a thing like that when he is at the peak of his career? There are others who think it to be nothing in today’s fast paced world of cinema where no publicity is bad publicity. The idea is to be in constant public eye.

Whatever might be the idea behind the news, one thing is for sure that there is nothing and nobody that can take the Baadshah’s position from him; and even if this might be true his fans are surely there to support the actor.

The best part is that his fans are so much devoted that they are arguing that if he has said it then may be there should be a genuine reason for him to have done so.

Then again this just maybe one way of pulling everyone’s leg. We mean that may be ShahRukh is trying to see the reactions he gets from different people. Well, either ways he is the winner as people have reacted and there you have him in the news again. Really we just can’t beat this Khan no matter which field it is. Hats Off to you King Khan!
