Celebrating TV in front of SRK’s home

In a unique initiative which can be seen very flattering as well as a nuisance for Shah Rukh Khan, an upcoming film Khichdi will be holding a promotional event outside Mannat, the residence of the superstar. Mannat has a small park opposite its gates and the organisers have been able to get permission to hold the event there. where the first poster of the film will be unveiled.

The significance of doing the event in an open area outside SRK's residence is to mark the phenomenal success the actor has achieved on the big screen after starting out as a TV actor. Khichdi is India's first TV series that is being made into a film. The popular comic characters of the series will stage this event to underline the fact that TV stars can be successful on the big screen too.

The organisers have not taken SRK's permission for this event. Along side the posters of Khichdi, they will also display the poster of Deewana, Shah Rukh's first film.

"Its symbolic. What the Taj Mahal is to Indians, Shah Rukh's house is the same for anyone moving from television to films. He is inspirational," says Aatish Kapadia, writer, director of Khichdi.

Khan said he has got to know the crew quite well ("They have been very unobtrusive").
