Can Katrina Kaif recreate the chemistry Shahrukh Khan shared with Kajol?

It’s a tough order to live up to, but we hear that the superstar’s leading lady was told to take cue from Kajol of Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge for the romantic scenes in Yash Chopra’s latest love story

Out of all of Shahrukh Khan’s leading ladies, Kajol undoubtedly shares the best onscreen chemistry with the badshah of romance. It’s not that he doesn’t look good with Priyanka Chopra, Deepika Padukone or Anushka Sharma. The camera captures the awe and adulation the pretty young ladies have for the superstar. But whenever SRK has shared the screen space with Kajol, Madhuri Dixit or Juhi Chawla, the physicality and mental understanding between them has been natural and plausible. SRK and Kads look the best together though. May be because they were young and walking the same road to stardom together made them look most comfortable with each other.

Recently, during the shoot of Yash Chopra’s romantic drama, SRK’s newest co-star Katrina Kaif was experiencing difficultly looking in love with the superstar. Probably because she was too much in awe of the king of romance! To make things simple and easy for the Chikni Chameli, Chopra senior’s son Aditya, who is supposed to be directing the romantic scenes in the film, told her to keep in mind the playful and uninhibited Kajol of Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge. In fact, the love scenes between SRK-Kat are inspired from SRK-Kajol’s equation in the romantic blockbuster.

Katrina is definitely happy with the way the romance in the film has turned out. “I’d like to think Shah Rukh and I share the same on-screen chemistry as he did with Kajol and Madhuri. I’ve learnt a lot by simply observing him especially in the romantic sequences,” she said in an interview.

Let’s wait to watch if Kat has managed to relive the chemistry SRK and Kajol shared. While we doubt it could be possible, we wouldn’t be shocked if Kat surprised us.

Priyanka Chopra doesn’t want to discuss Shahrukh Khan

Priyanka’s alleged link-up with the superstar has changed her equation with SRK forever. The actor now wants to refrain from talking about any topic revolving around her Don co-star

Priyanka Chopra, who hardly ever ducked questions with the usual ‘no comments’ statement, seems to have decided to not comment on any question related to Shahrukh Khan. In fact, the actor has started to get irked when a question on the King Khan is squeezed in by the media.

Recently, when a journo asked her about her link up with the Baadshah Khan, Priyanka chose to keep mum. “By being extremely loud, doesn’t mean I’ll answer your questions. Thank You,” replied the 29-year-old actor. It is said that PC’ extreme closeness with Shahrukh irked Shahrukh’s wife Gauri and since then a very powerful circle of star wives have been plotting and bitching about the actor. When she was asked about this by a reporter, Priyanka chose to look the other way.

Clearly, Priyanka simply wants to refrain from talking about of her once-flourishing-friendship with the man she admired the most. At another do that took place about a week ago, a reporter asked Priyanka if Shahrukh still makes her blush, a fact that was captured by cameras on Karan Johar’s talk show Koffee with Karan a couple of years ago, but PC now says she hasn’t said anything of that sort. Now, come on Priyanka! Should we show you the recorded copy of the TV show?

And just like Priyanka, Shahrukh too is has decided to go completely mum on the matter. We wish the two could just come clean on the issue and put an end to the controversy (even though we would lose out on a lot of drama that has kept us going for the last few months). But surely there is more to it than what meets the eye.

SRK's detention case: India asks US to avoid such incidents

Washington: Taking up Bollywood actor Shahrukh Khan's detention case with the US, India has asked Washington to take steps in order to avoid such incidents in the future.

To "convey the deep concern that has been expressed nationwide in India" over Khan's detention at White Plains airport near New York on Thursday, the Indian Embassy here said that it has taken up the matter with the US Department of State.

It has also "sought the State Department's intervention to institute appropriate measures to avoid recurrence of such an incident in the future", it said in a press note on Saturday.

According to the embassy's version of the incident, about half an hour after the arrival of "the internationally renowned Indian film star" by a private jet at White Plains airport on Thursday afternoon, the Indian consulate in New York received information that he had not been cleared by the US Customs and Border Protection (USCBP).

"The Consulate General immediately intervened with the concerned authorities for his early clearance, which was done within 75 minutes of his arrival," it said.

"Khan thereafter left the airport. The same evening, USCBP authorities, through an email to the Consulate General conveyed their profound apology for the incident.

Caught on the wrong foot over the detaining of Khan at a US airport twice in less than three years, Washington had on Friday asserted it was not a case of racial profiling or a pattern.

Suggesting that Khan was not "detained", but "simply delayed", State Department spokesperson Mark Toner said, "I wouldn't necessarily look at this as some sort of pattern but rather two separate incidents."

Toner also dismissed a suggestion that it was racial profiling. "I think we all know that that's clearly not the case. The fact of the matter is tens of thousands of Muslims travel to and from the United States every day and are not detained or delayed."

In August 2009, too, Khan was detained at New Jersey's Newark airport.

Abhay Deol better than Shah Rukh Khan'

Actor Abhay Deol, who plays a Tamil IAS officer in Dibakar Banerjee`s next `Shanghai`, took language lessons to get into the skin of his character, and the director feels that he has surpassed Shah Rukh Khan`s act in `Ra.One`.

SRK played a Tamil game designer, Shekhar Subramaniam in his dream project. Now, in Dibakar`s venture, Abhay plays a 40-year-old Tamil bureaucrat.

"I can say he did better than that (Shahrukh Khan`s Tamil act). Before the shoot began, for three months, he (Abhay) had asked for a Tamil coach who can teach him Tamil alphabets, language and the accent. He had also asked me to rehearse Tamil lines with him before the shoot," Dibakar told reporters here last night, at the first look of `Shanghai`.

For Abhay, playing this role was not an easy task.

"This character is alien to me. So I worked more on the language. The character that I play is egoistical, short-tempered, he is very reserved and religious person. The big stumbling block for me was the language. As I am a Tamil guy in this film, so on the accent part, we did not want to make it sound stereotype, as whenever we have had South Indian characters in Hindi films they bring those typical accent," Abhay said.

"We were having someone on the sets who was Tamil, who used to read the dialogues to me, I did study the language. I took accent only in certain words only as we did not want to stereotype it. So how do we not make stereotype and yet make it sound Tamil, was the main thing for me to do," he said.

For this film, Abhay would also be seen sporting a moustache.
