Shahrukh tweets about the conference
The actor who's thoroughly delighted about this global honor, unfortunately couldn't attend the conference due to the hectic shooting schedule for his home production 'Ra.One'.

However, he did manage to share details about this honor by tweeting about it in the social networking site, Twitter.

"There is a three-day conference on me in Vienna. I am humbled and proud that Indian cinema is becoming a global platform for discussion," wrote SRK.

After completing filming for his upcoming film 'Ra.One', the superstar is looking forward to visit the country sometime soon.

"It would be great to revisit the country and go to their university," further wrote King Khan.

Shahrukh has to sport an athletic body for 'Don 2'
SRK will need to work out for a lean and sporty look for the sequel of 'Don'. And for this look, the superstar needs to build muscle and is now religiously undergoing extensive weight training.

Speaking about the weight training, sources close to the actor stated, "SRK's role in Don 2 requires him to not just be fit but to have a tough, athletic and lean body -- something that can help him do high-intensity stunt sequences effortlessly. Prashant Sawant, his trainer of 10 years, is helping him achieve that. For over a month now, the actor has been undergoing extensive weight training along with a high-protein diet that helps build muscle mass."

Buzz has it that the actor is focusing only on weight training with no cardio.

"And when it comes to food, SRK's diet will only include eggs and steamed or grilled chicken," stated sources.

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
