Shah Rukh Khan will perform ten controversies that rocked the nation, at Ekta Kapoor's award show

Ekta Kapoor doesn't believe in shying away from controversies and scandals. Her upcoming Global Indian Film & Television Honours (GIFTH) promises to be the most controversial award function of the year.

Balaji Telefilms Ltd, which is hosting the nation's first joint film and television awards event, will have Shah Rukh Khan performing India's top 10 controversies of 2010.


Shah Rukh performing at the previous Balaji awards

Says an insider, "SRK will be seen in the finale and his act will include taking off on each controversy The Niira Radia tapes, The Commonwealth Games fracas, the IPL controversy and a few controversies on some B-Town stars. The act will end in a huge burst of fireworks with SRK announcing something specially unique!"

Comfort factor

The award function is on February 12, but King Khan has yet to decide on the list. He wants to avoid certain highly sensitive scandals but Ekta is pressing him to do it.
 
Adds a source, "If Shah Rukh is not comfortable with the idea, then there is another option of taking off on the top 10 films of 2010 which includes Ekta's own Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai, Dabanng etc.
 
There's another possibility of building the act around the top 10 songs of 2010. But Ekta's heart is set on the top 10 controversies and she's hoping to persuade SRK to do it."



The two SRKs

It is learnt that Shobhaa Kapoor is a huge Shah Rukh admirer and it is at her insistence that SRK is doing the finale.
 
Says a Balaji insider, "Shobhaa told them flatly when other options were being discussed that no award function can happen without King Khan.
 
So it was one SRK (Shobhaa Ravi Kapoor) insisting on another SRK.

Shah Rukh's performance on the Balaji award night in 2008 was the highlight of the event and this time around Ekta promises that his act nothing short of spectacular." Can't wait, can you?

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...
