HC throws out "frivolous" petition against SRK

The Bombay High Court today dismissed a PIL against Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan for alleged violation of construction norms as "frivolous" and imposed a cost on the petitioner for wasting its time. Activist Simpreet Singh had filed a PIL against the actor alleging that a building, an extension of his bungalow "Mannat", a heritage property, had been constructed in gross violation of Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ) and other rules. A division bench of Justice P B Majmudar and A Sayed threw out the PIL after observing that the petitioner had targeted the film star only for publicity. "There are so many buildings in the same line as Shah Rukh's building. Why have you (petitioner) taken an objection against only this building? Simply because he is a film star?," the bench asked. According to the petition, the place where the building stands was reserved for an art gallery. The state government, however, informed the court that the reservation

SRK at Zor ka Jhatka's launch party!

Shah Rukh Khan proved that he is the ultimate entertainer as he brought the house down at the launch of his show Zor ka Jhatka on Imagine. The party held at JW Marriott also marked the completion of three years of the channel. The actor was at his charming best and wooed all the gals. Saumya Tandon even got a peck on her cheek from the Badshah. But that doesn't mean that our telly guys went completely ignored. We saw Akashdeep Saigal posing with some hotties. Shabbir Ahluwalia too had a great time catching up with his pals at the do. Mink, Narayani Shastri , Hanif Hilal, Karishma Tanna, Dheeraj Kumar, Goldie Behl and Vrajesh Hirjee were among the other guests seen having a great time.

SRK is a man of few words

Gooood morning my yummy chocolate pies! How goes it this morning? I'm delighted to be back after a short break and feel ready to tell you what's happening in Bollywood's glamour bylanes. For starters, Sher Lock Holmes has dropped in to tell me that he's in awe of King Khan...I mean Shah Rukh Khan. Turns out that Holmes and Khan have been exchanging emails and mobile messages  and now, Holmes, for the first time in his life, has become a fan of an actor. When I prod him, my expert jasoos says that although SRK talks a lot in person and on TV shows, he's very crisp when he writes his emails and mobile messages. Meaning? Holmes explains that when he writes emails or messages, they are so short that sometimes, if one is not well-versed with his style of writing, they may not even understand what he writes. Of course, my dear dimpled Khan replies very quickly to urgent messages and emails but otherwise, everything waits ti

Now it's Prof Shah Rukh for Karan Johar

Box-office moneyspinner set to produce and star in director's 'Student of the Year' project; likely to play a professor Shah Rukh Khan and Karan Johar on the sets of 'My Name is Khan', their last film together (FILE) Shah Rukh Khan will play a significant role in Karan Johar's next film, according to sources close to the production. The director, who is launching Mahesh Bhatt's daughter in "Student of the Year", has ramped up old friend Khan's performance from a cameo to a much bigger role, most likely as a professor. Khan is also the film's producer. "Rumours about SRK acting in KJo's next had been doing the rounds but Karan's constant silence about the film started giving people the impression that SRK was only planning to produce the film," the Times of India quoted an unnamed source as

Shah Rukh in KJo's next

Kunal M Shah, MUMBAI MIRROR, Jan 27, 2011, 12.04am IST In our report dated November 29, 2010 on Karan Johar launching Mahesh Bhatt's daughter in his next film, we told you that SRK was likely to play a cameo in the film. Not only will SRK co-produce KJo's film Student Of The Year, he will also play a significant role in the film. In fact, Karan, who is taking a monthlong break to go overseas and finish the script of this film, plans to work on SRK's character.  So all rumours about KJo working without his best friend Shah Rukh Khan for the first time in his next directorial, can now safely be put to rest.  Our source said, "Rumours about SRK acting in KJo's next had been doing the rounds but Karan's constant silence about the film started giving people the impression that SRK was only planning to produce the film. But actually, both SRK and Karan are co-producing the film, which will launch newcomers Varun Dhawan , Siddarth Malho

Gauri Khan is angry with SRK

Gauri Khan is rather miffed with her husband Shah Rukh Khan these days. She isn't very happy with the way SRK has been behaving. What has SRK done to be at the receiving end of his wife's wrath? Well, the reason is that King Khan has apparently been neglecting his health for a while now. The actor, who has been traveling a lot and on a rather hectic schedule has apparently not been taking adequate rest. Well, the time difference is also to blame. "I know that I am traveling too much these days, I am shuttling between time zones and continents. I do lose track of time once in a while, but I don't ever get sick because of jet-lag. Everybody complains of sleep issues due to excessive travel, but I've yet to experience that," says SRK. Guess how many hours Shah Rukh Khan sleeps? He reportedly sleeps for some three-four hours and that's not all. The actor believes it's enough! "Yes, three-four hours of sleep is just enough for me. Besides,

SRK is Mr Perfect

Good morning my yellow bell peppers! Here's what I need to really reveal: gups and shups . For starters, Sher Lock Holmes dropped by on the sets of Ra.One and returned home extremely elated after meeting Shah Rukh Khan. He tells me, Holmes sillies, not SRK, that the hero is so involved with his film that he doesn't like any outsider snooping around. He has ensured that every line of dialogue that goes into the film is perfect. For that, he makes sure that the dialogue writer of Ra.One Kanika Dhillon is always present on the sets for creative inputs. The girl adheres to whatever he says. She's on the sets all the time that Badshah bhai shoots. http://www.hindustantimes.com/StoryPage/Print/654207.aspx

King Khan in tights and underwear!

Shah Rukh Khan, who will be seen in two of the year's biggest releases, his home production RA.One , and Farhan Akhtar's Don 2 , had just one release last year, friend and filmmaker Karan Johar's My Name Is Khan .  The actor often found it frustrating and tiresome to be at home, nursing an injury that he suffered while filming My Name Is Khan . "I had three screws inserted in my body due to the shoulder injury. Recovery wasn't exactly speedy. It took me six-eight months to resume work. I missed being in the studios at that time," sighs Khan, backstage at the recently concluded Apsara Awards. "On several occasions, I thought that I should start on a new film, but Don 2 and RA.One required physical agility, and I wasn't in great shape at that point. But now, when both films are near completion, I will take on more work." The actor, before even making his superhero entry on the big screen, says he is a hit with his kids, Aryan and Suhana.

Shahrukh Khan at Neelam-Sameer Soni’s wedding reception

Look who arrived looking gorgeous as ever at Neelam and Sameer Soni 's wedding reception yesterday? It's Aishwarya Rai . The lady wore a dark pink back-less salwar suit and was without her dear hubby. While others who added Bollywood zing to the reception were Shahrukh Khan , Rani Mukherjee and also Karan Johar . SRK and Rani took some time out and were seen enjoying each other's company and posing for photogs, but we can't say the same for Ash and Rani. It seems the theme for the party was pink and white as most of the ladies walked in pink-coloured dresses. Rani was quite the cynosure of eyes; she looked lovely in pink and white ghagra-choli. Here are more stills from Sameer Soni and Neelam's wedding.

Dolly Bindra in SRK's Zor Ka Jhatka

The reality shows have mostly opened work opportunities for its participants either in other reality shows or fiction shows. The same has happened with this year's Bigg Boss 4 winner Shweta Tiwari and one of the top finalists Dolly Bindra. Dolly has remained one of the much talked contestants in Bigg Boss house for her loud behaviour and foul mouth. The actress has reportedly signed Imagine TV's upcoming reality show 'Zor Ka Jhatka', which will be anchored by Bollywood star Shahrukh Khan.

She has been offered to be a part of the Valentine's Day special episode of

SRK to perform at Ekta’s awards

Finale act with 10 TV girls that included Kyunkii Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi's original Tulsi, Smriti Irani, and her replacement, Gautami Gadgil. "The awards went off very well but the channel we had tied up with shut shop and we were grounded," sighs Kapoor.

Hrithik's life-wife Suzanne wants to smooch SRK

While, Shahrukh Khan was seen expressing all his good thoughts about Hrithik Roshan and Suzanne Roshan on the show Koffee With Karan, Suzanne just went crazy about SRK. When the host Karan Johar asked Hrithik's wife Suzanne that what would she do if she wakes up as Gouri Khan one day. To this bang came the answer, "I will go and kiss him on his lips." Buzz up! Well yes, you read it right, Suzanne Roshan is so crazy about Shahrukh that she would like to smooch him if for one morning she wakes up as Gauri Khan. Looks like Shahrukh mania is spreading day by day, first it was Vidya Balan who went gaga over Shahrukh and expressed her desire of being romanced by him on-screen and now it is Hrithik Roshan's love, life and wife Suzanne. Hmm!! hope Hrithik also gets an equal chance to kiss like Suzanne. http://www.greynium.com/mail-print/print.php

Lovers don't sleep: Shah Rukh Khan

Back in Mumbai after a hectic travel schedule, actor Shah Rukh Khan says that he has never experienced jet-lag in his life. The only effect that the months of incessant travelling has on him is that he, sometimes, loses track of time. "I know that I am traveling too much these days, I am shuttling between time zones and continents. I do lose track of time once in a while, but I don't ever get sick because of jet-lag. Everybody complains of sleep issues due to excessive travel, but I've yet to experience that," says Shah Rukh. However, there's one person who constantly worries about the superstar not catching enough sleep and that's his wife, Gauri. "I sleep for three hours a day generally. I can see everybody in deep sleep around me even when I am on flight. When I was travelling to Singapore, everybody would catch up with a litle nap but I just couldn't. I was wide awake. Gauri is sometimes concerned about this and keeps telling me that

Shah Rukh: ‘I have not ghost directed Ra.One’

In an exclusive interview, the star talks science fiction films, his new blue eyes, the Oscars and Salman Shah Rukh Khan wants to clear rumours about just how far he threw his weight around on the sets of his much-vaunted home production, "Ra.One". But quiz him on Salman Khan and he clams up.  In an interview for Emirates247.com , he talks about the Oscars, 'Ra.One' and select other subjects. It's being said that you have ghost directed 'Ra. One'? You keep reading news that I am directing the films in which I am working in. No it is not true. I have worked in 70 films till date and I haven't directed any one of them. No one else has directed them too. The director has only directed them. Even 'Ra.One' has been directed by Anubhav Sinha only. I haven't directed it. Anubhav is a very humble man. He does not say anything. He is media shy too and he does no talk about his work. He does not talk much. He is a fantastic director. Ins

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 would be unfair on my part to pick any one film but I'm sure whichever one anyone else picks will have me," she laughs. Sh

SRK and Katrina to be seen together in KJo’s next

Katrina, Bollywood's biggest sensation is moving quite fast and bagging roles with the biggest superstars of the country. This time it is our very own SRK, who is to romance Kat in Karan Johar's next movie. The pair who has never worked together before are to be seen together very soon as plans are being made to cast Bolly's two most famous actors opposite each other. Even though things did not hit off exactly as planned with Katrina due to Salman's intrusion and she was asked not to share the same screen space with SRK. However things have cooled off since then after SRK has been already paired with all the leading ladies of the film industry. This is just not it, the duo was also seen at a recent party talking to each other without any awkward moment cropping up between them. Things did not stop at this, SRK even escorted the beautiful Katrina to her car and she was seen leaving the party with KJo. Now it seems only the might KJo himself can bring them t

When SRK got luck

The reigning queen Katrina Kaif recreated the magic of Sheila, but with a twist at the 6th Apsara Awards produced by Wizcraft International. The spunky actress Anushka Sharma came with her Band, Baaja and Baraat. Our Khiladi No. 1, Akshay Kumar couldn't stop himself from joining the lissome lass and they brought the house down with on beats of Patiala House. And talking about Patiala, how can we forget Punjab da puttar Dharamendra, who received a lifetime achievement award. For some comic relief, Dolly Bindra was there as Sajid Khan imitated the loud mouth ex-Bigg Boss housemate. And he did not stop there. He also dressed to resemble Javed Akhtar and Vidhu Vinod Chopra while the audience rolled on the floor laughing! If everyone is being naughty, do you think King Khan could hold himself back? While announcing the awards for the best actress, he got the two gorgeous women, Vidya Balan and Anushka to kiss him on both his cheeks. Only Shah Rukh Khan has the &#

SRK, Big B & Dench to work together

It cannot get any bigger or better than this! Two icons of Bollywood and a heavyweight Hollywood A-lister are coming together to support the cause of education among the underprivileged in India. Shah Rukh Khan , Amitabh Bachchan and Judi Dench will be working in tandem to promote education among the low-income groups of the country with the sole aim that when these kids become bread-winners, they will have a better life and in turn provide better opportunities to their children. And bringing these top actors together is none other than the Oscar-winning sound engineer Resul Pookutty. His foundation has been silently working towards bettering the socio-economic conditions of the poverty struck groups but he believes that the time has come to go top gear. "It is unimaginable that even in the 21st century there is rampant illiteracy in India. We are making our presence felt in the world and this aspect is something that should definitely be tackled.

Shah Rukh's Pakistani cousin comes bearing gifts from Karachi

Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan's Pakistani cousin Noor Jehan is looking forward to a reunion with him after over a decade, when she visits India next month.

She is hoping to meet the 'King Khan' of Bollywood when she visits India to attend the wedding of a relative. "I am going to New Delhi in the first week of February and will stay there for around 10 days. I shall approach Shah Rukh and if he spares time for me, I will proceed to Mumbai from New Delhi," she said. "I am proud of my cousin and have named my child after him. Shah Rukh has given us pride and recognition," Noor Jehan said. Keeping in mind Shah Rukh's love for the city of his ancestors, Noor Jehan said she would take some special gifts for the star, including Peshawari chappals and a silk suit.

his box office clout unbeatable and comparable only to the other two Khans, Aamir Khan and Salman Khan (especially after DABANGG ). Last year fans were treated to just one SRK film, MY NAME IS KHAN , and after flooring the critics and his fans, as well as the discerning audience with a superlative heart felt performance in MNIK, Shahrukh disappeared from the big and small screen, although he made appearances in various ads. However, it was not a long overdue vacation or holiday that he owed his family or something alike that kept him away from the lime light, but it was health concerns that forced him to take a long break. Shahrukh talked about his shoulder injury and the surgery and said that he had to stay at home and recoup after that. Talking about his pains he said that he had almost no rest for about three months as he could not even sleep peacefully. In fact, he had to sit and sleep and could not even perform a day-to-day task like taking a bath due to the extrem

SRK opens gym to friend

The actors that workout together stay together is the new mantra in Bollywood. Sanjay Dutt was one of the first superstars to let all the young boys who entered films workout in his gymnasium. Uday Chopra and Hrithik Roshan exercised together for the longest time. Now, it is Shah Rukh Khan's gym at Mannat that is the latest hangout for those who are serious about their fitness. Boman Irani travels all the way from South Mumbai to use SRK's gym. And so do a couple of other actors. The nice thing is, even when SRK is travelling around the world, Mannat has instructions to allow the Bollywood Badshah's gym mates to use his fitness machines.

The actress said further, "Earlier also I have done films like 'Omkara' and 'Chameli' which weren't exactly mainstream." She said further, "Last year's 'We Are Family' was a difficult role. Now, 2011 would have a mix of different subjects and films as well." Kareena added "Festive seasons are pretty much working for me. Now on Eid comes 'Bodyguard' and then in

Vishwajeet's SRK link

We all know that superstar Shah Rukh Khan began his career with the TV serial Fauji, but what many aren't aware of is that Vishwajeet Pradhan , who plays Brahma in Star Plus' Maryada Lekin Kab Tak , also got a break in the industry with Fauji where he played Shah Rukh's friend. The duo later became friends in real life and Vishwajeet also did films like Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani and Chalte Chalte with SRK. "But we never let our friendship get into work. Director Aziz Mirza found me worthy of the characters and offered me the role. But I'll always be glad for knowing a person like Shah Rukh. He is one man who hasn't changed at all," says Vishwajeet. Talking about his acting career which includes a good 150 films, he says, "Being from a small town my parents wanted me to become an IAS officer but being an actor I lived the life of everyone. I've been a cop, a hardliner politician, a magician, a watchman, a don, a smuggler, an o

SRK, Ash at Filmfare Nominations Party

Usually it's the winners who party hard to celebrate their success, but this do had the nominees for Filmfare Awards 2010 dancing the night away at the JW Marriott.

Ink of mystery in SRK tattoo

Has Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan decided to express his love for a certain someone with the letter ' D' engraved on his right arm? Or maybe his act of getting inked is just a promotion stunt for his upcoming biggie Don 2. The mystery surrounding his ' D' tattoo is still unsolved. However, it's not news that tattoos have been a rage with B- town celebrities for quite some time now. Whether it is actors like Deepika Padukone or Saif Ali Khan, who have sketched their bodies with their lovers' initials or name, or be it Akshay Kumar and Arjun Rampal, who have their kid's names stamped on themselves, the tattoo fever has now got on to King Khan. Though the actor has not confirmed if the tattoo is a permanent one or not, he was spotted at several events, flaunting his new tattoo. However, we know that it's not a Shah Rukh Khan thing to adorn tattoos and prove something to the world. The actor, in the past, has uploaded photos of his fully- tattooed

The music of the film has especially been in the limelight for different reasons.
