Shahrukh Khan-The story behind his first visit to the Taj Mahal!

It is the dream of every Indian to visit the magnificent Taj Mahal, atleast once in his or her life time, and Shahrukh Khan is not an exception!

Shahrukh Khan, the present King of bollywood, had visited this piece of marvel, just after he had earned his first salary! Now, this is the test, how much would Shahrukh have earned in his first job ever? The answer is a mind boggling one- It was Rs.50! Yeah! It is with that amount of money that SRK, had bought a ticket to travel by train to Agra, where the great monument is situated.

Now, what kind of a job did Shahrukh do for the first time in his life? Well, this one's also equally mind-boggling- he worked as an usher. That is to say, he was the ticket checker for a concert, where in he had to check the tickets and then let the people in. The concert was of the great Ghazal singer Pankaj Udhas.

Well, like all Indians who value the TajMahal as the epitome of Romance, Shahrukh Khan too had visited the magnificent tomb built by Emperor ShahJahan, for his beloved Queen Mumtaz Mahal. It was built as a sign of his eternal love for her, this is the Tomb of the great Queen, where her body was buried, and this wonder of the World, was built around it.

Thus, to say the least, all we can actually think of is that Shahrukh surely knows how to make the maximum use of his hard earned money! So, that's the story about SRK and his first visit to the Taj Mahal.

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...
