SRK or Sallu who will be first to feature on KJo's Lift Kara De?

While channel wants Sallu to feature first in Karan Johar's new show, the producers want SRK. Who'll blink first?

That is the big question. While the channel is leaning towards Salman (who hosts 10 Ka Dum for them), Karan and the show's producer (Yash Raj) would obviously prefer Shah Rukh to set the ball rolling



Lift Kara De premieres on Sony in January. It is one of the shows that marks Yash Raj Films' foray into television. It will have 20 episodes where B-Town's biggest stars meet and interact with their biggest fans.

While Karan has already shot for an episode with Priyanka Chopra last week, sources indicate there is an internal lobbying on which male star to shoot with first. Shah Rukh and Salman Khan are in the reckoning.

The source says, "It's a new concept and they want to open big. It can't get bigger than Shah Rukh or Salman. Since the channel has worked with the latter and is comfortable with him, they want him to be a guest before SRK. On the other hand Yash Raj and Karan have a great personal rapport with SRK. So their choice is obvious."
The source adds that Karan is keen on having both actors on the show. However, unless the production house and the channel come to a consensus soon, the delay will continue.

Being SRK: The ultimate reality TV show

It's a job most Indians would die for — shadowing Shah Rukh Khan wherever he goes. For the last two months, that's exactly what a TV crew has been doing, following the country's biggest star from South Africa to America to London to Mumbai — all for the making of a unique six-part series on the actor, to be telecast on lifestyle channel Discovery Travel & Living. "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

'Every Damn Time,' Tweets Shah Rukh Khan, Detained At US Airport

Movie star Shah Rukh Khan, detained at an airport in the US for questioning again, tweeted on Thursday: "Every damn time!" The 50-year-old actor was detained at the Los Angeles airport this time. A man with the same name is on a US no-fly list of 80,000 people. He took to Twitter to voice his exasperation. I fully understand & respect security with the way the world is, but to be detained at US immigration every damn time really really sucks. @iamsrk  The brighter side is while waiting caught some really nice Pokemons. @iamsrk  Mr Khan, one of the most successful stars in the Hindi film industry, has been held back at US airports thrice in seven years. American officials tell NDTV that during immigration checks, what pops up is a name without any other detail to help draw a distinction. In April 2012, Mr Khan was held back for over two hours at the airport in New York on a visit to address students at Yale University. He had joked later at Yale: "Whenever I start fee
