Shahrukh leaks details on Don 2 and Ra.One!


Bollywood's king Shahrukh Khan let slip a couple of interesting titbits today from his twitter account, the juice involves his upcoming big budget films Ra.1 and the sequel to Don.

According to Shahrukh, 'Don 2' begins filming in September or early October. As we reported earlier, Farhan Akhtar's sequel to 'Don' promises to be four times as big and a dozen times as slick as the original film. The director, along with his buddy and producing partner Ritesh Sidhwani recently returned from an exhausting trip to Europe; the duo were scouting locations to shoot Don 2 which expands upon the storyline set in the first film.

Don 2 will have a humongous budget and will feature some big chase scenes never before seen in Indian cinema. Farhan and Ritesh have decided to take the production design a couple of notches higher. "We selected a few places in London and then went to Ireland. Dublin is certainly on the cards. The locations are breath taking. After that we flew to Germany. We went to Frankfurt and Berlin. Our scouting certainly proved fruitful and we have decided on the places that we will be shooting", said Ritesh Sidhwani.

Farhan and Ritesh intend to take the Don franchise the way of the Bourne Trilogy. Like 'The Bourne Supremacy', Don 2 will tighten up the plot, action, pace and locales. What's more, if Don 2 does well financially, Farhan and Ritesh have promised to dole out Don 3.

Shahrukh also tweeted regarding his superhero film 'Ra.One'. As per his tweet, 'ra.one is short form for random access version one. reads like it is written. RAONE. its a movie about gaming and superheroes and bad guys.' SRK also dismissed rumours regarding Aishwarya Rai being a part of the film. 'no aish is not in the film. the final cast will be announced soon ...waiting for just some last bit of casting. yes it does read as in ravan' he tweeted.

Both 'Don 2' and 'Ra.One' are expected to release on 2011. SRK's only release for 2010 is Karan Johar's 'My Name is Khan' (not counting his cameo in Dulha Mil Gaya).

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...
