SRK to do a musical!

Shah Rukh Khan is set to do a Broadway-style, big budget Indian musical, the second to be attempted here after the City of Dreams.

Plans to make SRK's musical global are also being contemplated. However, the Bollywood Badshah will only do a cameo which will have a crucial impact on the plot. The event management company that is making this musical said a full-fledged publicity plan is being devised cashing in on SRK's presence in the show as this is now its USP.

Getting Shah Rukh on board wasn't easy. Help of the Morani brothers, with whom the actor has worked for many years, was taken; a meeting set up, and SRK got into the nitty-gritty of the show. He took time to get convinced because he wanted to be sure that the project is actually big. Anticipations on his role are high. But as of now, everything is hush-hush.

"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
