Shah Rukh Khan to repay Rajinikanth

This Sunday, Shah Rukh Khan will be in the city — to participate in the audio launch of Rajinikanth's Kochadaiiyaan. Confirming the news, the film's director, Soundarya Rajnikanth Ashwin, said, "I called him (Shah Rukh) to come for the function, and he instantly agreed. He told me, 'It's like my film' and that he'll surely be there." It's well known that the Baadshah of Bollywood is a huge fan of Rajinikanth. While he roped in the Superstar to make a cameo appearance in RA. One, he performed a 'Thalaivar Tribute' (Lungi Dance) in his film, Chennai Express.

At an audio listening session of the songs of the film, lyricist Vairamuthu revealed how Rajini initially refused to sing the Maattram Ondrudaan Maaraadhadhu number. "We (Rajini and I) had worked on the lyrics of this philosophical song for almost a week. We came up with hundreds of lines - that were a message to the audience. And then, once Rajini recited it, it gave the lines new life," he said.

The lyricist added, "Rajini has a way with words — I feel that he should write dialogues for his next film. If he's willing, I will encourage him to do so."

Shah Rukh Khan: half of my films flopped but I'm still a superstar - See more at

Superstar Shah Rukh Khan is happy that he has survived in the industry and is still a star despite having several flops behind him. "It has been an amazing journey till now. It is fantastic time to be here," Shah Rukh said.

The actor said one should not get disturbed by a film's failure. "I have done 70-80 films out of which 50% are flops, still I am star... but those films are close to me," the 48-year-old actor said.

Talking about his favourite film, he said, "My favourite film is Paheli, (followed by) Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani. The film that goes a little wrong (kharab) that should be your favourite and you should be proud of these films."  Shah Rukh feels fortunate to be part of Indian cinema at a time when it is going through several changes.

"There are so many wonderful filmmakers and actors who are edgy and want to take risk, chances and take Indian cinema forward, the extent to which Indian cinema has shifted from just being a trend and fad internationally to becoming part and parcel (there)," Shah Rukh said.

"Bollywood was just a cool word earlier and it was all about singing and dancing... now when I travel abroad and talk about Bollywood, there is a sensibility and understanding of different mode of storytelling which is coming out of India."  Shah Rukh started his acting career with TV shows like Fauji and Circus.

Apart from doing negative roles in films like Darr, Baazigar, and Anjaam during his early days in Bollywood, he acted in memorable films like Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge, Dil To Pagal Hai, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Devdas, Swades, Chak De India and Chennai Express among others.

Shah Rukh Khan-Kajol to team up again for DDLJ remake?

Be it Raj serenading Simran in the picturesque scenery of Europe or the iconic train scene, Aditya Chopra's 'Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge' is considered as one of the most favourite romantic flicks of all times. Hence, it comes as a pleasant surprise when we got to know that a remake of DDLJ is in the pipeline.

A Hindustan Times report says that Aditya Chopra is planning to make a remake of this iconic film and will see both Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol team up again. The movie might be tentatively titled asDulhaniya Chali Dilwale Ke Sath.

The report further says that the story will be tweaked to suit the present time and will have SRK-Kajol only in cameo roles.

This movie will see TV actor Farhan Khan (of Chhanchhan fame) as the male lead and actor Mahika Sharma as the lead actress. Other actors include Boman Irani and Paresh Rawal, who will play the role of Anupam Kher and Amrish Puri respectively.

A source has told HT that a song will be shot in the exotic locales of Malaysia. However, the spokesperson of Chopra's production house has denied these reports.

Well how we wish to see DDLJ remade!

After Yo Yo Honey Singh, Shahrukh Khan tries to get Himesh Reshammiya and Mika Singh in his gang!

The King of Bollywood seems to be building a music brigade of his own

Yo Yo Honey Singh started becoming popular amongst the masses when he crooned the Angrezi beat song for Saif Ali Khan in Cocktail. However, the singing star got into the limelight with the Lungi dance number in Shahrukh Khan's Chennai Express, which was a tribute to the superstar Rajinikanth in true sense. And despite having worked with SRK's competitors, Yo Yo still seems to be a favourite ofBaadshah Khan. After all, we have seen the two performing together at various events and concerts.

Now it looks like the Chennai Express actor is planning to make a music brigade of his own. Yes, after Honey Singh, the King of Bollywood is trying to get Himesh Reshammiya and Mika Singh in his gang. Wondering what are we talking about? Well, here is a dekho.

Recently, Himesh, who was shooting for a song with Mika for his movie at a studio, was surprised when Shahrukh dropped in. Apparently, the Happy New Year actor was shooting next door and after the pack-up, he went to Himesh's shoot. That's not all. We also hear that SRK left the venue in Mika's high-end SUV.

If you remember Himesh is a very close friend of Shahrukh's arch rival – Salman Khan. So will a Salman Khan loyalist turn into a Shahrukh Khan loyalist very soon? Well, all we can do is just wait and watch!
