Chhamak Challo, the new Sheila?




Munni and Sheila are now passé. This Diwali, Chhamak Challo will sizzle on screen. So says Kareena Kapoor for her song in Shah Rukh Khan's superhero fantasy flick, RA.One. "But it's not an item number," Kareena is quick to add. "It's one of Akon's two tracks, and an integral part of the storyline. It's fantastic!"

She adds that the ambience is south Indian, and choreographer Ganesh Hegde has incorporated some classical moves! "I've never done something like this before, I'm looking forward to people's reactions. I'd be lying if I didn't say it would be the biggest song of 2011. But I'll let the audience see it, and say it for me."

According to the trade verdict, RA.One is one of the most eagerly anticipated films of the year, but Kareena chooses to be diplomatic. "It Ra.Onewould be unfair on my part to pick any one film but I'm sure whichever one anyone else picks will have me," she laughs. She's right, considering she has My Love Story with Salman Khan, Agent Vinod with beau Saif Ali Khan, Short Term Shaadi with Imran Khan and Aamir Khan's untitled suspense thriller. "I'm biased towards Agent Vinod as it's Saif and Dinesh's (Dinesh Vijan) home-production."

Her five films have over Rs 300 crore riding on them. Kareena is unfazed: "Shah Rukh is giving his everything to RA.One. Ditto Saif and Salman whose sister Alvira is producing My Love Story. Aamir is co-producing our film with Farhan Akhtar and Riteish Sidhwani, and Short Term Shaadi is being helmed by Karan Johar, who is like my brother. I'm happy that all the Khans wanted me in their film."

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
