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.
