Shahrukh Khan Dreams of Oscar Gold

After being a presenter at the Golden Globes; Shahrukh Khan has set his eyes on the prize. He has decided that it's time to get serious and now one of the biggest and well recognized actors

in Bollywood is going for the gold; Academy Awards gold that is.

Shahrukh Khan wants to go into what he calls "serious cinema," which will give him an opportunity to take part in an award winning performance. Shahrukh Khan was offered a role in
the Oscar winner 'Slumdog Millionaire,' but at the time refused. It probably didn't give him much pleasure to see that the film won big at just about all of the award ceremonies, since he
could've been a part of that international fame. That's why he's not passing up any more chances at Oscar gold.

His close friend Preity Zinta told Shahrukh Khan that she'll be teaming up with Indian/ Canadian filmmaker Deepa Mehta for her next film. This made Shahrukh Khan want an introduction by
Preity Zinta to the critically acclaimed director on their trip to South Africa for the IPL.Shahrukh Khan undoubtedly hopes that this will bring him closer to Oscar worthy recognition.
But will it all be enough? Shahrukh Khan is no doubt an accomplished actor, but is he really Oscar worthy? Will this meeting with Deepa Mehta be the right thing to get his career geared
up? It'll be interesting to see what kinds of roles Shahrukh Khan takes on in the near future to get closer to his new dream.

We want to know what our readers think about Shahrukh Khan getting into more "serious cinema". Do you think that he's already Oscar worthy? What would you change about the King
of Bollywood? Give us your thoughts on Shahrukh Khan's latest dreams of fame.

"It's an inner world-outer world kind of documentary," said Khan, speaking exclusively to HT. "Hopefully, the parts that people will get to see of me — at work and at other places — will shed some light on how films and film stars work and offer an insight into how I do things." Khan said he has got to know the crew quite well ("They have been very unobtrusive"). For Discovery Travel & Living, this series will be one of the biggest global productions to come out of India and will be shown all over the world. "We haven't yet decided when we're going to telec...
