SRK won't follow Karan So what if Karan Johar made his biggest campus hit Kuch Kuch Hota Hai with Shah Rukh Khan? SRK doesn't want to follow his buddy's success formula in his own campus flick Always Kabhi Kabhi.

Substantiating this, Roshan Abbas says, "Yes, the setting is certainly not Riverdale High. We are telling a high school story, but nobody's trying to be overtly cool here. We're very believable in our aesthetics." Source: http://www.deccanchronicle.com/channels/showbiz/bollywood/srk-won%E2%80%99t-follow-karan-744

Her canvases speak of myriad hues. From painting women, who are a blend of the east and west, to Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan and a host of other celebrities, to cause-based works of art, Anjanna Kuthiala's repertoire of work spans a gamut of paintings. The Delhi-based writer and painter, who transitioned from being a homemaker to a well-known artist, brings to Bangalore a body of work that boasts of incorporating the city's inherent character in each of her 20 frames. "Delhi, Mumbai and Bangalore have always been closest to my heart. Delhi is where my career took off, Mumbai was where I showcased a series of 20 paintings depicting Shah Rukh's various avatars and Bangalore, because the city's greenery and beauty inspires the artist in me," says Kuthiala.

A superstar fills his need for several selves as he shifts personalities in a jiffy at Delhi meet To know why Shah Rukh Khan is a superstar, all you have to do is rent Dulha Mil Gaya (Trinidad, Fardeen Khan, enough said). His 15-minute cameo lifts the 2010 movie out of purgatory and gives it one of the most romantic gestures in Bollywood history, a middle-aged millionaire who gets up early so when his girlfriend is awake, he can focus on her. To know what we really want from superstars like Shah Rukh Khan, unfortunately you need the good fortune to see an off-screen performance. At the recent India Today Conclave, among such enormous crowd-pullers as Sarah Palin and Narendra Modi, there was no question that SRK was still the headliner. With extreme seriousness, he read a lucid speech largely about the business end of Bollywood. No sentimental anecdot...

Shah Rukh Khan's superhero fantasy adventure, RA.One , has the rumour mills buzzing overtime. Director Anubhav Sinha admits that he's heard some funny stories but perhaps the most absurd one was that Shah Rukh and his nemesis, Arjun Rampal, share 21 superhero costumes between them, each of wh ich reportedly cost $1 million. "That would mean that we've spent $ 21 million that's equivalent to Rs 90 crore on these costumes alone. How ridiculous is that!" he scoffs. "Yes, there are 21 costumes and they are expensive. In fact, I'd go as far as to say that they are the most expensive clothes either actor has ever worn. But still, they are not that pricey even if they cost far more than the Armanis and Dolce & Gabbanas that Shah Rukh and Arjun have in their wardrobes." It's common knowledge by now that both the stars lost a lot of weight to get into the the costumes, which makes them a must-have for t...

King Khan held a Holi bash late last evening PS: It was a colour-free affair Shah Rukh and Gauri Khan hosted a Holi bash yesterday at their home, Mannat. Held late last evening, it was different as it began at a time when all other Holi parties had ended. Celebs at Shah Rukh's Holi bash Says a source, "Having a post-Holi party was Gauri's idea. SRK had been out of town for a long time and a get-together would help him reconnect with friends.   The logic plainly was that Holi parties, though great fun, are too noisy and mess up the garden and house with colours and water." Another reason was the India-West Indies cricket match in the evening. "SRK and his friends love watching the match together on his huge LCD screen at Mannat." Adds the source, "Though it was a post-Holi party, guests were served bhaang and jalebi along with a variety of Indian sweets and a lavish dinner. Gauri sent out personal invites."
