Shah Rukh Khan RA.ONE suit makes him lose weight

gauiri shahrukh khan Shah Rukh Khan RA.ONE suit makes him lose weight

Shah Rukh Khan, the Badshah of bollywood who rocked the nation with his six-pack-abs in ‘Dard-e-Disco’ number of ‘Om Shanti Om’, has not only lost the muscles but also looking weak due to superhero suit needed for upcoming mega- budget science fiction project ‘Ra.One’.

The suit had been especially made to order in the US and the materials used included silicone, Styrofoam and rubber. Shah Rukh has to wear this suit for at least eight to nine hours everyday, and that is making him look weak.

One of the main reasons for him to lose this way is that he can not eat anything while wearing the suit, as it has lots of wires inside. Even after removing the costume, the slimming effect of the materials used in the suit continues on King Khan’s body. However, the shooting with the suit was only for forty days and that is now over.

Sources close to ‘Mannat’ say that Gauri Khan has already started feeding her husband rice and chicken to gain some weight and hopefully the effort would be visible within a few days.

Shah Rukh too has been feeling the difference and says that even his children Aryan and Suhana were taking him to become a ninety pound pushover in the house, and hence he is going to gain some weight very soon and would look his earlier best.

Shah Rukh Khan clarifies on Ra.One release date

Shahrukh, who is playing a superhero in the movie for the first time, has posted on his twitter page that the release date of Ra.One has not been decided. The media reports on 31st August suggested that SRK, who is also the producer of the movie, is going to release it next year on 3rd June.
Denying the reports, SRK said ironically that it is nice to know that someone has already fixed the release date of Ra.One because he is not aware of any such declaration. The superstar added that may be the person, who has spread this rumour, can go ahead and finish the movie. He further said that the release date of the movie would be announced after discussing with the office guys, which should be sometime around June next year of course.
Well, even if the exact date is not announced, the supposed time of release seems to stand somewhere close to the rumored time frame!

SRK said that he has made sherwani for Aryan & him self . But Junior Khan like other kids finds comfort in wearing jeans and tees, so obviously it was not an easy task for Shah Rukh to convince him about the sherwani. But SRK found a superb way of. Knowing well of his son’s fascination for super hero films and characters, SRK tried, “Selling him the concept of sherwani as the garb of Neo from Matrix. Hope he buys it & wears it on Eid.”

SRK is best Daddy in the World

Shahrukh Khan is a perfect family man and a doting father. He shares a very special bonding with his two children, Aryan and Suhana.

Shahrukh likes spending time with kids and the children also enjoy being pampered by their father.

Recently, the actor was shooting for a commercial, which required him to act with a four-year-old girl.As kids are most difficult to shoot with, Shahrukh Khan had to play with her for hours and mend her to complete the commercial properly.

SRK as babysitter

Shahrukh was shooting a commercial with a four-year-old baby girl in Mumbai. She was little mischievous and refused to deliver the shot as required. She was extremely cranky and was misbehaving constantly.

Although her parents were present there, SRK went up to her and started playing with her. He gave her a box of chocolates, and sat and spoke with her till she calmed down.

Of course, what followed was an hour-long mischief and games session between the girl and SRK, who was in splits most of the time.

Apparently, Shahrukh decided to make a painting just for this kid when all of a sudden she was ready to shoot with King Khan. The shoot was wrapped up by the end of the day and the girl clicked a lot of pictures with the actor.

‘Ra.One’ for kids

Shahrukh Khan and Kareena Kapoor starrer, ‘Ra.One’ is a superhero film and Shahrukh Khan wanted to dedicate the film to his children, Aryan and Suhana who likes superhero flicks and always wanted their father to portray the role of a superhero.

The film is directed by Anubhav Sinha and Shahrukh played the character called ‘Jeeva’, who can solidify electricity. International pop singer Akon has given his voice for one of the songs in the film.

Speaking at a press conference, Shahrukh says, “It’s a kind of film, a genre we guys haven’t tried at ‘Red Chilies’. It’s a new thing for all of us, so we are giving it our best shot. Hopefully, we will be able to do what we are set out to do. I am doing it for my kids.”

Shah Rukh Khan goes size zero

Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan is the first to admit that he’s lost weight. “Yes, I have lost a lot of weight,” he rues. “I need to put some weight on… even the kids (Aryan and Suhana) are thinking I am a 90 pound pushover weakling. I can’t be an under-nourished superhero, can I?” adds the actor, who is currently busy shooting for his sci-fi superhero flick, Ra.One, which also stars Kareena Kapoor and Arjun Rampal, and is scheduled for release next year.

The reason for SRK’s weight loss is, to say the least, strange.

“It’s because I had been wearing a superhero suit for Ra.One. The suit is made of silicon and styrofoam and rubber and, after wearing that suit for eight to nine hours daily, you tend to lose weight.”

Not only did the actor sweat constantly inside the suit, he couldn’t even eat properly during the 40 days that he was supposed to wear it.

“When I was shooting in Mumbai about a month ago, it was very hot even in the air-conditioned studio. It was steaming hot even when we shot in London. So you can imagine my condition inside the suit. I wouldn’t eat, as I had wires all around, and it’s very difficult to have a meal while in the costume.”

But, he hasn’t lost his sense of humour.

“I am marketing that suit for people who want to shed a few kilos,” he says.

However, don’t get too attached to SRK’s lean look.

“Now that I have finished the shoot, Gauri has been feeding me lots of rice and chicken so I put on a few kilos. I will also start working out. My shirts have become loose, but I hope I still look sexy,” he signs off.

Shahrukh Khan Dedicates Ra.One to all Fathers

Sharukh Khan is currently busy in working with his film ‘Ra.One’, where he is playing as a super hero. Shahrukh Khans says that he is dedicating this film to all fathers.

‘Ra.One’ is a story of a father and son. The actor says, “The film is dedicated to all the fathers in the world. I hope this film will help bring fathers at the front and make me a hero in the eyes of my son,” Shahrukh Khan admits that his children wanted him to see in the role of superhero and so, to fulfill their wish he decided to do the film, Shahrukh said.

G.One of Ra.One SRK is Highest Tax Payer In Bollywood

G.One of Ra.One or King Khan, Shah Rukh, has turned the highest tax payer in the industry for the second quarter of the financial year 2011. He has paid a total of Rs. 5 crore as income tax.

Earlier, Akshay Kumar was the leading man in Bollywood paying highest tax. This time, Akshay has slipped to second position by paying 4.5 crore. Aamir Khan has come next to these two stars after paying 4 crore. Saif Ali Khan and Ranbir Kapoor have become the next highest tax payer as they shelled out 2.5 crore each.

In the last quarter, Katrina Kaif paid Rs. 1 crore but this time it has increased to 1.3 crore. Kareena Kapoor has made a payment of Rs. 1 crore as tax in this quarter.

Shah Rukh Khan has made it clear that he is the “Baadshah of Bollywood’. His arch rival Salman Khan has taken the sixth position by shelling out Rs. 2 crore to the government.

Coming to the Bollywood directors, the leading tax payers in the second quarter are Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Vishal Bhardwaj as they paid Rs. 50 lakhs and Rs. 25 lakhs respectively.

Among the young brigade, Ranbir Kapoor is the only name in the top list and that is obvious from his consecutive hits this year.

Shahrukh Khan’s ‘Ra.One’ is most eagerly awaited film

Much awaited ‘Ra. One’ ready for a roll out early next year, Shahrukh will look to lay claim on his throne once again. Plus, ‘Ra. One’ being a superhero science-fiction flick, SRK is stepping into a fresh genre and hopes to conquer hearts and make millions.

WORLD TOUR: Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan will kick off his 2011 world tour with a one-night show in Oman in March, event organisers have confirmed (Getty Images)

Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan will kick off his 2011 world tour with a one-night show in Oman in March, event organisers have confirmed.

The concert will mark Khan's first appearance in Oman for eight years, and comes after the Bollywood idol was forced to cancel a February 17 show due to filming commitments.

Event organisers are expecting more than 20 thousands fans to attend the concert, said Roar Entertainment, one of the companies behind the show.

"We are expecting an audience of 20 to 30 thousand for the show… Since the show gains importance we are also in touch with some airline operators to bring Shah Rukh fans from other GCC countries," said Rajesh Raman of Roar Entertainment.

The concert will mark the first leg of Khan's Temptation Reloaded World Tour 2011.

The event is part of Oman's aim to bolster its tourism revenues by attracting twelve million Indian visitors by 2020.

Rohit Shetty smitten by SRK

One would have imagined only women are crazy about Shah Rukh Khan. It appears that even the men are smitten by him.

Director Rohit Shetty, who believes that Diwali is lucky for him and invariably has a release on that date (the Golmaal series, All the Best), was originally planning to bring his Bol Bachchan on Diwali this year. However, when he realised that his current favourite SRK is coming out with RA.One on Diwali, Rohit quietly postponed his film to a later date.

Says a trade source, "Rohit is going to be working with SRK on the Angoor remake in 2012. So he is ready to bend backwards to please the Badshah of Bollywood. Besides the G-3 director is said to be floored by SRK's charm."

Guess what he and Priyanka are up to for 'Don 2'?

Shah Rukh Khan is back in Malaysia to shoot the sequel to his blockbuster 'Don' - this time on a larger scale and with a local baddie to combat.

Immensely popular and honoured with the traditional Malaysian title Datuk, akin to knighthood, SRK arrived in Kuala Lumpur with co-star Priyanka Chopra.

"The `king' of Bollywood is in Malaysia to film the sequel to his 2006 blockbuster hit 'Don'," The Star newspaper announced today (Feb 14).

SRK flew in from Mumbai after a gruelling 58 hours of working on a set.

"Datuk Shah Rukh Khan lived up to his tough guy image by proceeding to Malacca state to continue filming," the newspaper said.

Besides Priyanka, a 60-member crew accompanied SRK to Malacca.

Shah Rukh's arrival created a stir at the airport as passengers rushed to catch a glimpse of the actors.

"Despite their hectic schedule, the duo did not disappoint when their fans asked to take photographs."

'Don 2' will have SRK playing the title role, an undercover police officer masquerading as the leader of an international gang of drug smugglers.

Priyanka will play his love interest, Roma.

The sequel will promote Malaysia, just as the initial blockbuster did.

Local sensation Ady Putra, known for his bad boy roles in hit Malay movies like 'Anak Halal' and 'Histeria', will also star alongside SRK, with shooting to be done at Sungai Udang.

SRK's close friend, Lorna Enan Muloon, said the actor had set the trend for Bollywood to have Malaysia, especially Malacca, as a preferred location for filming.

"The state has a special place in his heart," she said.

'Don 2' will also be filmed in Kuala Lumpur, the national capital and Langkawi, a popular island resort.

SRK will be in Malaysia for about a month.

The fans, wanted autographs and photographs of the stars. Interestingly, PC and SRK did not dishearten the fans and posed well to have some Kodak moments with them.

The sequel to 'Don' will be shot at famous locations of Kuala Lumpur, Malacca, and Langkawi. Palpably, SRK will be in the country for a month.

Besides SRK and PC, 'Don 2' features Boman Irani, Lara Dutta and Kunal Kapoor.

SRK To Do An Item Number?

Shahrukh Khan, who had surprised everyone with his six-pack revealing performance in the song 'Dard-E-Disco', will reportedly do another item number for his upcoming home-production 'Always Kabhi Kabhi'.

Directed by debutante Roshan Abbas, 'Always Kabhi Kabhi', which is produced by SRK's Red Chillies Entertainment, is based on the theme of high-school life.

"There is one item song in the film with all four lead actors and an extremely popular star. Just wait and watch," Abbas said.

There is a buzz in the B-town that King Khan will be seen flaunting his body again.

Four years ago, Shah Rukh's six-pack abs grabbed eyeballs as he went topless for Farah Khan's 'Om Shanti Om' to perform the number 'Dard-E-Disco' that became an instant hit.

"There is a demand for item songs now, last year we saw 'Munni Badnam' and 'Sheila Ki Jawani' sweeping awards, and they became popular. Item songs are a good marketing tool for a film," Abbas said.

SRK had also done an item number for Hrithik Roshan's home-production 'Krazzy 4' and Karan Johar's 'Kaal'.

'Always Kabhi Kabhi' will see four debutantes - Producer Karim Morani's daughter Zoa and Giselle Monterio, who played Harleen alongside Saif Ali Khan in 'Love Aaj Kal', Satyajit Dubey and Ali Fazal.

Shahrukh Khan To Shoot Don 2 In Melaka

MELAKA, Feb 15 (Bernama) -- "Yes, I promised the last time to be back here and shoot a movie and I am now here," said Bollywood sensation Shahrukh Khan.

Bestowed a "Datukship" by the Melaka State Government during his last visit here in Dec 2008, Shahrukh is in town to shoot his new movie "Don 2", a sequel of his "Don: The Chase Begins" which was released in 2006.

"We began shooting few days ago and I will be here for another two or three days to film the beginning part of the film," he told reporters at a secret location in Sungai Udang, here Tuesday.

Also present was Melaka Chief Minister Datuk Seri Mohd Ali Rustam, his wife Datin Seri Asmah Abdul Rahman and the two producers of the film, Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar.

Farhan who was the producer of the first movie is also the director for Don 2, a film which is due to be released to 32 countries worldwide this December.

Shahrukh said the new film will be more slick and technically savvy as compared with the first one (Don).

"This is an action movie like "The James Bond" or "Bourne Identity" genre which will appeal to boys rather than girls," said Shahrukh who wore a white t-shirt and bright orange pant, with an unfamiliar pony tail hair to suit his character in the film.

Shahrukh, 45, looking thinner than before was in a jovial mood, cracking jokes at reporters that he missed Priyanka Chopra, the leading lady in the film who was not present since she had to return to India to promote her new film.

He said his role in the film was just like the first movie, playing a bad guy, "fooling" around with a lot of people and getting the job done.

"Just like my character in real life," he said with a sense of humour.

Shah Rukh Khan copies Priyanka

SRK will bring seven of his most popular characters to life alongside Priyanka Chopra on Zor Ka Jhatka.

Last time you saw him in a double role on the game show Zor Ka Jhatka where he brought to life two of his memorable characters – Raj and Surinder Sahni. This time Shah Rukh Khan is going five steps ahead and will be playing seven of his popular characters on Zor Ka Jhatka .

For tomorrow's episode, Shahrukh will host the show in a unique way donning the roles of his seven most adored screen characters. In this special episode, Shahrukh Khan will have dazzling diva, Priyanka Chopra, whose film Saat Khoon Maaf is up for release.

Shahrukh will enthrall audiences as he plays his seven most popular characters including Raj from Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge , Rahul from Kuch Kuch Hota Hai , Deva from Devdas , Rahul Mehra from Darr , Raj Aryan from Mohobbatein , Om from Om Shanti Om and Don. Priyanka Chopra will join in the merriment and enjoy the participants' hilarious falls while jumping over moving obstacles, bouncing off big balls and dodging swinging pendulums.

While Priyanka kills all her seven husbands in the film Saat Khoon Maaf , we wonder if Shah Rukh Khan in his seven avatars could survive the sexy jhatkas of Priyanka Chopra.

Fan spends $3,300 to meet Shah Rukh Khan

Fan spends $3,300 to meet Shah
Rukh Khan
Malacca (Malaysia) |Thursday, 2011
3:05:06 PM IST
Mehjabeen Erum Alim, of
Bangladesh, kept a patient vigil and
spent a whopping 10,000 ringgit
(about $3,300) over two days to
meet Bollywood star Shah Rukh
Khan along with some other fans in
Malacca.
She did realise her dream -- but the
actor only smiled, gave autographs,
posed for photographs and left,
blowing flying kisses. Mehjabeen
was told that he does not speak
before shooting to stay within the
character he is playing.
Khan, who is on a month's schedule
to shoot a sequel to his earlier
blockbuster "Don", saw the news of
Mehjabeen spending big money on
her vigil in The Star.
"Fortunately, he spotted us just as
he was about to get into the car
and agreed to sign autographs,"
Mehjabeen said, adding that she
managed to draw his attention to
the story in the daily about her
wish to meet him. Khan
autographed the news article for
her.
"It is an indescribable feeling and I
am so happy to have finally met
him. I feel like I am in dreamland,"
Mehjabeen said after meeting Khan
Wednesday at a resort in Ayer
Keroh town.
Khan met her and seven other fans
at the resort just as he was about
to enter his car to go to the film
location for his latest movie "Don
2".
Mehjabeen, 27, is happy, but not
satisfied. She said she would still
love to meet him again just to hear
his voice.
"It was just a fleeting moment and
he didn't say a word but merely
nodded and gestured to us as he
rarely speaks before filming so as
not to come out of the character he
is playing," Mehjabeen, pursuing
her masters in business
administration in Kuala Lumpur,
said.
Besides taking home memories of
the meeting with Khan, she said
she was glad to have made new
friends who shared a similar
passion for the Bollywood
heartthrob.
Immensely popular in Malaysia,
Khan was conferred the title of
Datuk, akin to knighthood, by the
Sultan of Malacca in 2009.

No social networking for SRK

All efforts were being made by the channel for which Shah Rukh Khan is hosting a reality game show that SRK makes a comeback on the net. However, those plans have tanked.

SRK had gone off his social network following abusive language against him by a couple of people who were using the net space to give vent to their personal vendetta against him.

SRK was very hurt and he decided to call it quits. Now, despite the channel trying their level best to coax the superstar to stage a comeback, SRK is in no mood to enter the dodgy domain.

SRK's documentary on Mughal-E-Azam

On the first floor of Shah Rukh Khan's house Mannat, lies something he wouldn't trade for gold. It's a film camera.

Not too many people know that the actor owns the original camera on which his favourite film Mughal-E-Azam (1960) was shot. Khan is a self-proclaimed fan of the classic and has now finished making a documentary on it.

SRK has always been in awe of K. Asif's direction in the film. Not only has Khan produced the film under his banner Red Chilies, he has also played the sutradhaar of this documentary.

A source from the production house said, "SRK is a huge fan of the film. He is extremely close to K. Asif's son Akbar Asif, who resides in London. Every time they meet, they have long discussions over the film."

During one of these discussions, Akbar Asif apparently expressed the desire to pay a tribute to his father and make a documentary on the classic.

SRK immediately told him that he loved the idea and that he would produce it for him. SRK also volunteered to be an anchor for the documentary.

The 40-minute-long documentary is now ready and SRK will hold a grand launch for it soon, we are told.

The source added, "The documentary has been put together by Devan Munjal. It will have a lot of information on the classic.

There will be interviews and comments from many B-Town biggies. SRK has always maintained that he is a huge fan of the legendary actor Dilip Kumar and this will be his way of doing something in honour of the film.

The documentary has been named Mughal-E-Azam - A tribute by a son to his father.

Shahrukh Khan: Will 2011 be the King Khan’s year?

The competition is mostly between Aamir Khan, Salman Khan and Shahrukh Khan for the crown of the biggest B-town actor. While Salman shall be coming up with 'Ready' and 'Bodyguard' and Aamir with a Reema Kagti suspense film, the Bollywood Badshah aka Shahrukh Khan has two films lined up for a 2011 release.

Shahrukh's last big release was way back in the early 2010 in the form of Karan Johar's 'My Name is Khan' that brought him quite a few trophies for the Best Actor.

SRK shall be dishing out two of his most awaited releases this year- 'Ra.one' and 'Don 2'. 'Ra.One' is in the news for quite a few months and though not much is known about the film's basic plot, what is known is that SRK shall be seen in the avatar of a superhero in this flick. He shall have some superhuman powers including that of solidifying electricity. Kareena Kapoor is the female lead of the film but it is clear that it belongs mostly to SRK.

'Don 2' is currently in the pipeline with the shooting going in Malaysia. Since the directorial reins are in the hands of the deft Farhan Akhtar we can be assured of the quality of this action caper. Those who have watched 2006's 'Don' and loved Shahrukh reprising Amitabh Bachchan's classic character can look forward to the end of this year for a promising sequel.

In short, Shahrukh is all set to rock this year. After a long hibernation, 2011 shall be pretty good for his fans and devotees.

Bollywood SRK to sign Dabangg director, Salman furious

It seems SRK is so impressed with rival Salman Khan's Dabangg that he wants to re-create the magic of the movie by signing its director Abhinav Kashyap. If rumours are to be believed SRK had a secret meeting with the filmmaker and the news has not gone down well with Salman.

Salman Khan who had earlier decided to bury all the differences with Abhinav and was about to sign him for the sequel of Dabangg, has now reportedly decided against it.

If grapevine is to be believed, Salman's brother Sohail Khan, who directed Pyaar Kiya Toh Darna Kya might takeover the project as a director.

If that was not enough, even Aamir Khan is keen on working with Abhinav Kashyap. Aamir and Abhinav have worked earlier on few ads.

Well, now it remains to be seen who'll be the next Dabangg in Abhinav's film.



Shahrukh Khan Rocks New Look for 'Don 2'

Shahrukh Khan and Priyanka Chopra took off to Malaysia to shoot some more scenes for their upcoming box-office smash Don 2 - The Chase Continues the other day and now we finally get to see SRK's new look!

The star-studded team worked in Berlin for a few weeks late last year and fans have been following the cast through their tweets and pics. The Don himself, Shahrukh Khan, arrived on the set in Berlin and was soon joined by his co-stars Priyanka Chopra, Kunal Kapoor, Boman Irani and Lara Dutta.

Don 2 stars Shahrukh Khan as Don, nothing new there, Priyanka Chopra as Roma, Boman Irani as Vardhaan and Om Puri as Mallik. Arjun Rampal however won't be part of the new production and took to Twitter to announce the news. "Hey Guys, Yes it is true won't be part of Don 2. Wish the team all the success I am sure it will be a super film," he said.

Produced by Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani, and directed by Farhan Akhtar, Don 2 is the sequel of the 2006 box-office hit Don: The Chase Begins Again, which in turn is a remake of the 1978 classic Don. When Don: The Chase Begins Again hit theaters it was love at first sight with audiences across the globe and hopefully its sequel will be another hit. What do you think of King Khan's new look? Hot or not?

SRK goes off from Twitter?

Scuttlebutt has it that the King Khan is in no mood to return back to the micro-blogging site Twitter contemplating the nutty comments posted by a bevy of people on his posts.


Indeed, some anti-SRK fans are using such mediums to lay bare their thoughts about him by using absurd language.

This has probably hurt the Baadshah of Bollywood, and consequently, his frequency of posting the messages has also reduced.

With a fan following of more than 7,86,100, Shahrukh's last tweet was on Jan. 2, 2011, which read, "Am glad everyone seems to like the G.ONE look....the next level will be to reveal the powers...thanx to videocon & eros international."

Latest reports reveal that the channel in question, for whom SRK is hosting a reality game show, is requesting him to become active again on the social networking sites, and SRK is in no mood to make a comeback.

SRK to release a documentary on 'Mughal-e-Azam'
The heartthrob of many, Shahrukh Khan, will soon be seen releasing a 40 minute documentary on his all time favorite film, 'Mughal-e-Azam', directed by K. Asif.

'Mughal-e-Azam', a 1960s Indian epic film, featuring Madhubala, Dilip Kumar and Prithviraj Kapoor.

The idea of making the documentary was finalised when K. Asif's son Akhbar Asif shared with SRK, his idea of paying tribute to his father. And the King Khan immediately said "yes".

SRK is berserk over this marvelous film so much so that he owns a camera with which 'Mughal-e-Azam' was shot in the 60s.

Titled as the 'Mughal-e-Azam- A tribute by a son to his father', the documentary has been produced by Red Chillies Entertainment.

Interestingly, SRK has lent his voice in this 40 minute documentary, which contains all the information about the classic, and the opinions of the B-town stars about the film, put together by Devan Munjal.

Don 'SRK' caught in Malaysia!

Don ko pakadna mushkil hi nahin...namunkin hai' is something everyone in Bollywood believes.

Naturally, it was shocking for TOI to discover that Shah Rukh Khan, who is reprising his Don avatar was actually spending time in a Malaysian jail. Hello, what just happened here? We're wondering how SRK landed in jail. His motive remains unexplained and even the filmmakers of Don 2, Excel Entertainment Pvt Ltd are not divulging any further details.

Jailbird or otherwise, SRK with his long dishevelled locks and a lean sculpted body looks terrific. Of course, his incarceration comes as a rude shock. Perhaps even this has some hidden logic. As the adage goes — Whatever Don does, he does for a reason.

This thriller is due on Christmas. We'll have to wait until then to know how the Don landed himself in this spot.

Shah Rukh Khan in prison!

Here's looking at the Don in a Malaysian jail

The long hands of the law have finally caught up and landed the most wanted man in prison. Here's a first look at Shah Rukh Khan in the Malaysia schedule of Don 2.


The star has been currently filming for the sequel in Kuala Lumpur and Langkawi.


Shah Rukh Khan shooting for Don 2 in Malaysia

Says a unit source, "The sequences being filmed have the cops tail him and arrest the Don. This has left his folks bewildered as they firmly believed in his dictum: "Don ko pakadna mushkil hi nahi namumkim hai."

Ace up his sleeve?

Adds the source, "Obviously, there is an ace up his sleeve because the Don has already masterminded a prison break."

SRK who shot with several local Malaysian artistes had to indulge in a lot of physically taxing sequences.

He had to take on the inmates of the jail those who dared to question how he landed up behind the high walls.
King Khan is joined by co-stars Priyanka Chopra and Boman Irani for the schedule.

The star, who sports a special hairdo for his jail sequence, has been getting muddy and dirty as he packs punches with the inmates.

Produced by Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar (who is also directing the flick), the movie is slated for a December release.

'Don 2' follows SRK's character into a different adventure: Farhan

Q. How has life been lately?

Hectic. Everything is going great. 2010 just swished by. It was an exhausting year. I am hoping that all the hard work pays off this year. Fortunately, my wife and daughters could join me during my long schedules in Spain (for 'Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara') and Berlin ('Don 2').

Q. Do you get to spend enough time with your daughters?

How do you define 'enough'? They're happy children. The older one is a lot aware of what I do. She has begun to understand what I do. As of now she's more reactive to the music in my cinema. Even the younger one loves the 'Rock On' music. Now both my daughters are into the music of Zoya's 'Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara'.

Q. How was the long first schedule of 'Don 2-The Chase Continues' in Berlin?

I haven't really figured out the full title. As of now it's just 'Don 2'. It follows Shah Rukh's character into a different adventure. Yes, the character has grown.

Q. Will there be a 'Don 3'?

Yes, why not? Let's see. I do enjoy making 'Don'. Right now I'm just happy creating a whole new story for this character. It's a big challenge for me. We are 60 percent done with 'Don'.

Q. Is it more action-oriented than the first 'Don'?

I don't know how to answer that. There was action in that one, there's action in this one. I hate saying things like, 'You've never seen anything like this before.' Yeah there are action sequences where Don being Don is up to no good.

Q. What was your equation like with Shah Rukh this time?

I feel in terms of his real-life personality Don, suits Shah Rukh to the hilt. In real life too there's a certain flamboyance and magnetism about Shah Rukh. He brings these qualities effortlessly to the part. Also, like me, he has great respect and love for the original Don (featuring Amitabh Bachchan). At the same time he gives the character his own spin. In the second 'Don' we've taken some of the essence of what Shah Rukh did in the first 'Don'. But we've also given him some new things to do.

Q. You wear so many hats. Are comfortable with all your roles?

I guess. I've no regrets about any of my roles. It's been more than two years since my acting debut in 'Rock On'. Its impact lingers. However, I genuinely feel my dad (Javed Akhtar) did not get enough credit for the lyrics he wrote in 'Rock On'. After such a long time these were songs that were so non-situational. Without any reference point he wrote lyrics that were so contagious and identifiable...Of course everyone loved the music of 'Rock On'. But my dad's calibre of writing in the songs didn't get its due.

Q. In 2010 you were directed by your sister Zoya in 'Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara'. How was the experience?

Yeah, all of us - Zoya, Hrithik, Abhay, Katrina, Kalki and me became this little commune travelling across Spain. We travelled a lot. Spain has everything from beaches to mountains. So far only Bollywood songs have been shot in Spain. There's a serious change in topography as you drive through. The important thing was for us to look like we belong to one group.

Q. 'ZNMD' looks like the last part of your trilogy on male bonding after 'Dil Chahta Hai' and 'Rock On'?

Funny, you say that. And why the last? No, I don't have any major fascination with cinema on male bonding. 'Dil Chahta Hai' is the only script I wrote on the theme. Gattu (Abhishek Kapoor) wrote 'Rock On' a fab script about a rock band. Zoya's script for 'ZNMD' is about three guys on the verge of making commitments in life.

Q. How was it being directing by your sister a second time?

In Zoya's 'Luck By Chance', I was a sneaky social climber. In 'ZNMD' it's a sea-change. I play this guy who for the longest time takes nothing seriously. I am not even rich and I don't pretend to be. I'm just happy being the way I am. I got to just let my hair down. Many moments in this film gave me a chance to have lots of fun. After 'Rock On', 'Luck By Chance' and 'Karthik Calling Karthik' which were all serious angst-laden characters in 'ZNMD' I play a fun character.

Q. So you had fun doing the film?

Not just me. All of us. It was the nature of the script. There was so much improvisation. There was only so much that could be put on paper. So yeah we did improvise. We participated in the Tomatino festival in Spain.

Q. And a bull fight?

Let me clarify that once and for all. There's no bullfight in 'ZNMD'. We had animal-rights organizations questioning us about it. We sent them a letter saying there was no such thing. We did participate in a Running With The Bulls festival. No bulls got injured in that. We shot it in a completely controlled environment. We plan to release it at the end of May.

Q. Reema Kagti's film starring Aamir Khan which you are producing must be very expensive considering Mr Khan doesn't come cheap?

No, it's not that expensive. It's a very straightforward thriller. It doesn't demand an expensive treatment. The final cast is Aamir, Kareena and Rani. And we have a host of other good actors in other roles.

Q. What about your singing?

All three of us Hrithik, Abhay and I, have sung in 'ZNMD'. It's a party situation. It seemed interesting to lend our own voices to our characters. It's turned out really really well. I am very excited. That's the only song I've sung in a movie this year. Otherwise I am constantly singing in real life. I was singing before this interview. I'll be singing after we're done.

Q. Why not? You get so many offers including one from A R Rahman.

It's not because I am possessive about my voice. I don't know if my voice will work on anyone else. I feel my singing adds to my performances. I don't know if it would add to other actors' performances. In 'Karthik Calling Karthik', I didn't see my singing adding to my character, so I didn't. If I feel really kicked about singing for someone else, I will. Singing is not a profession for me. As of now I'll sing only for myself.

Q. Do you also look into the individual productions that emerge from your banner, or do you leave that to your partner Ritesh Sidhwani?

Ritesh deals with the day-to-day decisions. But the larger decisions, we sit and discuss. Our formula for success? To focus relentlessly on telling a good story. To me that's really important. People remember a good story. Filmmaking begins for me with finding a good story.

Shahrukh Khan, Farhan Akhtar: ‘Don 2′ Bigger And Better In International Market

Shahrukh Khan in Don 2 will see him leading a flamboyant lifestyle to make it at par with international cinema. The movie which was shot almost for an entire month in Berlin is full of class action sequences which have never before been seen in any Bollywood churn out.

Film maker Farhan Akhtar's movie Don 2 is all set to make a distinct mark for itself in the international market as much or in fact bigger and better than it is going to be in the national market.

First and foremost the sequel of Don, that is Don 2 will have Shahrukh in the Don's garb trying to capture the entire European market rather than spread his wings in crime only in India, as was the case in Don.

Now in Don2 SRK will be projected as a European crime lord with all amenities of an international kingpin. Thus Don 2 will have this crime lord fooling the police all over the world rather than just in 11 countries. Reports suggest that this movie has all the necessary steps taken to see that no leaf has been left unturned in investing on the lavish lifestyle of the crime lord and as a result the budget strings have crossed boundaries set up by any Bollywood film based on international crime.

Now reports pouring in also suggest that there are plans to put forth an international version for the NRI audiences and also foreign audiences for whom the songs will have to be done away with and the dialogues to be kept short.

Further it is being stated that Don 2 will be made as slick as any international flick and thus Tom Cruise's MI4 can face some stiff competition from this very big Bollywood blockbuster Don 2.
