Shahrukh: I'm loving Manchester!

   The King of Bollywood himself Shahrukh Khan received a royal welcome to Manchester last night. Arif Asif and Neetal Parekh report.

The city left an impression on the superstar who said he was overwhelmed by the response.

The event was featured live via our Twitter Feed and here on the Asian Image website with exclusive updates.

Amidst what were at times chaotic scenes a host of celebrities attended the event held at the Davenport Green Hall which is based on the outskirts of the city.  And whilst fans had to wait untill after 10pm for him to make an appearance, he certainly didn't disappoint when he took to the stage.


   People were standing on chairs, with others on their friend's shoulders just to get a glimpse of the star.

It simply was too much to handle for some fans who found being in the presence of a Bollywood superstar overwhelming. Several fans could not hold back their tears and simply broke down at the sight of him!

The evening organised by Lockdown Promotions was opened by the talented and exhilarating Sonash sisters who were followed by Imran Khan, H-Dhami, Kiran Dhanoa, and Abbas Hassan. It finished off with a colourful yet elegant fashion show.

DJ Fritz and his supreme dream team provided the perfect blend of music as guests arrived in what was a stunning venue.

Famous faces attending on the night included, England Cricketer Sajid Mahmood, ex Arsenal and Everton striker Kevin Campbell and Adam Woodyatt of Eastenders better known as Ian Beale.

As well as posing for pictures with fans, Shahrukh took part in a question and answer session with the crowd.

Some Bollywood stars we have reported on in the past have seemed a little aloof. But Shahrukh was out to make the audience feel right at home from the very start.

He seemed fairly relaxed and was keen to play along with as many of the requests coming his way. For a moment some of us forgot this was one of the most famous faces on the planet.

After talking about his love for the UK and upcoming movie projects he revealed his   fondness for Manchester United and cheekily taunted rivals City.

He went on to talk about how football should be promoted in the sub-continent and that he is thinking of performing a more comic role in the near future.

The more humorous elements of the night were provided thanks to some very enthusiastic fans who had messages recorded for their loved ones.

Shahrukh, sung 'tujhe dekha to yeh jaana sanam' from his hit movie Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge and some lucky ladies requested him to perform and substitute their names into his film dialogues.


Yousaf Khan, 21 of Leeds said, "I can't believe 'the king' came to Manchester, we feel so lucky and honoured".

Joan who had travelled all the way from Birmingham added, "Sharukh is the epitome of acting, dancing and creativity. He enriches and represents the Indian culture like no other."

Sana Mahmood from Birmingham said, "Shahrukh made hundreds of peoples dream come true!! He interacted with all his fans and even blew me a kiss. I just love SRK."

Whilst there were moments the event was getting out of hand (much to do with over-emotional fans!) many in the crowds were simply happy to catch a glimpse of the Bhadshah of Bollywood

This one truly carries the Yash Chopra stamp! Picturesque locales, intense poetry, enviable costumes, Shah Rukh Khan's dimpled cheeks, his passionate lover avatar, teamed with Katrina Kaif's flawless beauty, and Anushka Sharma's effervescence -- the trailer of Jab Tak Hai Jaan regales with all this, and leaves fans guessing what's in store.

The trailer, released online at 1 p.m. Thursday, was viewed by over 2,30,000 views on YouTube within two hours.

"It looks like the movie of the decade is coming... oh tiger; King is back... and that also with a bang," a fan named Ravi posted on the trailer's link.

Shah Rukh plays an army man named Samar in the film. He looks dapper as usual, but it is undoubtedly his loverboy smile that leaves the endearing touch. Add to that Katrina's chic looks and Anushka's bubbly, cheerful and energy-packed demeanour -- the film surely looks inviting, and expects to bring audiences to theatres in huge numbers upon its release Nov 13.

The trailer opens with Shah Rukh dressed in an army man's uniform, riding a bike in the breathtaking landscapes of Ladakh. And Gulzar's deep poetry adds to the beauty of the backdrop.

Scenes of Katrina in floral gowns and Shah Rukh's intense gaze at her on London's streets give the touch of romance, as do his parts with Anushka amid the scenic beauty of Kashmir.

There is drama, love, passion and the trailer hints at a sense of vengeance in Shah Rukh's character, who walks amid random bombings towards the end. It looks like a case of a classic love triangle, but leaves a lot more to guess.

Jab Tak Hai Jaan is special for many reasons -- it marks the return of Yash Chopra to direction after seven years after Veer-Zaara, Shah Rukh's trademark romantic avatar, and it has Gulzar's inimitable poetry, Oscar-winning composer A.R. Rahman's melodies and shots from Kashmir.

There is unprecedented buzz surrounding this next Shahrukh starrer "Jab Tak Hai Jaan". Film is slated to hit cinemas this Diwali on 13th November and also has Katrina Kaif, Anushka Sharma and evergreen romantic pair of Rishi – Neetu Kapoor.

 

Now after some exclusive coverage in last few weeks, we bring you some exclusive stuff on 1stpromo.

 

Film's promo has been kept close guarded and secret keeping in mind curiosity level among fans. Film's trailer has voice over in form of some real philosophical cum romantic lines from the film. Shahrukh will appear in never seen cool look with some really expressive eyes with a mind blowing song playing in background.

 

We are not here to spoil the fun especially as we don't know what our sources saw is a footage or trailer itself as trailer will be ready by 21st September. You will also get to see SRK driving in Laddakh and some stunt or montages of stunts happening there. Anushka gives some her typical "Band Baaja Baraat" type fast dialogue delivery. Katrina Kaif sees "something" and another songs break in female voice(which mind you is EVEN better than previous one). Shahrukh suddenly mouths some real cool couple of lines before something "crucial" happens and trailer ends before montage of few supporting cast.

 

Film's trailer and songs are ready to be out next week tentatively on 27th and already there are two promos have been cut so it is tough to guess which one they will be unveiling first. Length of uncut promo was 2 minutes plus approximately.

 

As per the sources, film has some real dramatic, intense but musical 2nd half and film will be a huge blockbuster written all over it as many trusted sources already saying it Shahrukh's best work in a romantic role till date.

 

If we get to know more about final promo in couple of days, we will be back otherwise wait for a week and we all enjoy one of the most romantic film unfolding before us.

While the entire country is in a celebratory mood, courtesy- the birthday celebrations of the Elephant God- Ganesha, actor Shah Rukh Khan is feeling a little low on this day. And, the reason for the same is the fact that September 19 marks the death anniversary of his late father, Taj Mohammed Khan, who passed away thirty one years back.

The actor, who's seemingly missing his father on this day, took to Twitter to share his feelings. He wrote, "Where shall I find you now- in which garden can we sit ? Where might you and I chat for a bit? My fathers 'barsi' today.31 yrs without him (sic)."

But at the same time, King Khan left some food for thought for all his fans, which read as, "Life is beautiful for it never takes away the people it pretends it does. It's just a question of us calling its bluff (sic)."

The actor called it a day after tweeting one of his most favourite pictures- a black and white picture of his father.

Shahrukh, through his twitter account said, "Fallen in love with my beard. But it started to scratch… so ripped it out and had to let it go. That hurts too." But he could not have adored it for long. He, along with Rohit Shetty were spotted at music director, Shekhar Ravjiani's place, probably to consider the type of songs that they will give space to, in their movie.

Shahrukh returned to Mumbai after a shoot-schedule in Ladakh for Yash Chopra directed Jab Tak Hai Jaan, where Katrina Kaif will be seen opposite him. Anushka Sharma is another female actor on the block who would be swindling around Shahrukh Khan in the flick, which releases on November 13. Ace filmmaker, Yash Chopra will be seen donning the directors cap after a long gap of over seven years after Veer-Zaara.

Shahrukh Khan anticipates the beginning of shoot of Chennai Express, which will go on floors from October but before that he requires a series of things to be think over and done.

Also, Shahrukh Khan received a 'thank you' message from Jhilmil aka Priyanka Chopra for helping her in preparing her character in recently released Barfi! through the account on her micro-blogging site, twitter, she posted, "Also thank you SRK for lending me all your 'My name is Khan' research, you gave me perspective on Jhilmil..owe you another one..love always."

No star would've agreed for 'Vicky Donor': Shoojit Sircar

There was a reason why director Shoojit Sircar decided to rope in fresh actors for "Vicky Donor". He says he roped in Ayushmann Khurrana for "Vicky Donor" after a "star" refused to be a part of the film, which turned out to be a sleeper hit.

"The storyline was very unconventional and when I approached a star with the script, he liked it, but had some apprehensions about it and after that I realised that no star would agree to do this film," Sircar said.

"It was then that I decided, I shall have a complete fresh cast and crew for this film," Sircar said at a talk at Whistling Woods International, Mumbai.

The film, based on sperm donation, also featured newcomer Yami Gautam.

"Ayushmann was an easy pick but we auditioned a lot for the female lead," said Sircar.

"I run a theatre group in Delhi called Act1 and Ayushmann and Yami were trained in acting there for three months and I also took workshops with them for 15 days," he added.

SRK loves bearded look for 'Jab Tak Hai Jaan

Mumbai: Karan Johar, who created magic by teaming up with friend and superstar Shah Rukh Khan in hits like `Kuch Kuch Hota Hai` and `Kal Ho Na Ho`, feels that SRK is the ultimate king of romance and no one can beat him in that space.

"I think no one can beat Shah Rukh in romance, he owns that space. If and when I am challenged to write a love story which I feel I can justify, I will definitely make it. Right now, I don`t know if there is enough of me to make another love story," Karan told PTI in an interview.

With `Kuch Kuch Hota Hai` (1998) Karan attempted a love story between three college students (Shah Rukh, Kajol and Rani Mukherjee). In 2003 super hit film `Kal Ho Na Ho`, Karan again formed a love triangle between terminally ill Shah Rukh, an uptight student Priety Zinta and her friend Saif Ali Khan. While with `Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna` he explored the side of adultery and extramarital affair.

Karan hopes to make an unusual love story yet again and hopefully with Shah Rukh.

"There are so many love stories that are being made. I feel I should have something unusual about the love story for me to tell through the film. And working with Shah Rukh is always great. I hope and pray that I should come up with films that would justify his tremendous star presence," he said.

Shah Rukh is now back to woo his fans once again with a romantic film with Yash Chopra`s `Jab Tak Hai Jaan`.

The romantic drama, directed by Yash Chopra, written and produced by Aditya Chopra, stars Shah Rukh, Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma in the lead.

"Shah Rukh is doing Yashji`s film after a gap. I can`t wait to see `Jab Tak Hai Jaan`. Its a film by Yash uncle, coupled with Shah Rukh`s romance with Katrina and Anushka. It will be spectacular," Karan said. 

Karan tasted success this year with the remake version of

`Agneepath` that had Hrithik Roshan, Sanjay Dutt and Priyanka Chopra in the lead. It retold the 1990 film of the same name and was directed by Karan Johar`s former assistant Karan Malhotra.

Through this film, Karan paid a tribute to his father Yash Johar, the producer of the original.

"I believed in `Agneepath`. I have grown up watching Hindi films, so I like film drama. In case of `Agneepath`, I liked the drama, emotional violence and I believed in Karan Malhotra. I am glad I made this film. It was the only film of my father that I wanted to remake," he said.

The 1990 original film starring Amitabh Bachchan, Mithun Chakraborty, Danny Denzongpa, Madhavi in the lead did not do well at the box office. But the remake version which released this year in January was a huge hit.

"I felt this film broke my father`s heart when it did not run and he felt very dejected. But I am sure wherever he is in the universe he will be very proud that we got it right," Karan said.

Meanwhile, Karan is kicked about yet another reality show `India`s Got Talent`. He will be judging the show alongside Kirron Kher, Maliaka Arora Khan and Farah Khan.

"This show happened as I was doing `Jhalak Dikhla Jaa`. I have loved watching this show. Ironically I was offered the first season but I couldn`t make it then. So I was fourth time lucky to be part of the show. There are so many talented people and they come with so many contestants from different parts of the country," he said. (MORE) PTI 

We got see different art forms, different dance forms and various other things. It is the human story that moved me as there are people who leave their jobs for the passion of their craft and art, it is fascinating and heartening. I am happy that I did the show. I got a lot from the show than I contributed to it," he said.

Well, Karan revealed that he was moved by a three-year-old boy who was drumming.

"This child was drumming like a rockstar. I went on stage to see if he is actually doing it himself or not. He is just awesome," he said.

As the show, `India`s Got Talent` is all about showcasing what you are best at, Karan feels he only has the talent of making films.

"I have no talent barring being a director and producer. That I feel this is my only talent. I can`t sing, I can`t dance.. I can`t do anything. I don`t have great talent I can`t write poetry all I can do is make films. But I wish I could sing," he said.

The show will go on air from September 22, every Saturday and Sunday at 10 pm on Colors channel. 

No one can beat SRK in romance, says Karan
