SRK to play himself in Bombay Duck?

The only celebrity character in Kanika Dhillon's book "Bombay Duck Is A Fish", whose name was not changed, was that of Shah Rukh Khan himself. The big question is, will SRK play himself in a movie version of the book? Word is that Kanika's book, launched recently by Shah Rukh Khan, might be made in to a film soon. The debut author is also a writer on SRK's upcoming "Ra.One". A source familiar with the situation says some of "the top studios and production companies are interested in bringing to the big screen the story in Kanika's book," about a girl's journey navigating love, life and career in the rough-and-tumble and the often ridiculous world of Bollywood and its personalities. With flamboyant characters rumored to be inspired by Salman Khan , Kareena Kapoor , Farah Khan and other stars and celebs, it's no wonder producers think a movie of the same would get attention.

SHAHRUKH KHAN’S RA.ONE TO SPAWN A VIDEO GAME WITH PLENTY OF CAR AND BIKE ACTION!

Needless to say, the Ra.One game will feature a car or two, as Shahrukh Khan will be seen driving a Porsche Cayenne SUV and riding a Ducati Monster motorcycle in the movie, apart from the specially designed "BatPod" kind of a superbike made exclusively for the Ra.One movie. Reports on the interweb suggest that the distribution rights for the Ra.One game could fetch a whopping INR 3 Crore, a first for   Bollywood . The Ra.One game, releasing in September, is said to be a prequel to the movie and is being developed to work on both the PS2 and PS3 gaming platforms. The game will play host to more than 20 game  play environments along with multi-player compatibility.

You can't keep up with Shah Rukh Khan: Kanika Dhillon

Screenwriter Kanika Dhillon, who has co-written Shah Rukh Khan's Ra.one , has now turned author. She's credited with SRK's catchy dialogue from the film - "Other heroes wear a mask, I wear a heart." Kanika started out working as an assistant director to Farah Khan, on Om Shanti Om, and then moved on to Red Chillies's Billu Barber, which was directed by Priyadarshan. So, how's it having King Khan as a boss? "Well, Shah Rukh Khan is like an encyclopedia. His knowledge and sharp mind keeps everyone on their toes. You cannot keep up with his pace, but he is patient and gracious enough to help, gives you a chance and a platform to flourish and, most importantly, if he believes in you, he will stand by you, no matter what others have to say." The association with films began five years ago. Kanika reminisces, "After I finished my Masters from the London School of Economics , around five years ago, I came to Mumbai with a couple

Sleep less, do more?

Do ambitious people keep longer waking hours, and is this the secret behind their success? While an average person requires six to seven hours' sleep, one wonders if ambitious people are programmed to restrict their sleeping time. "Three-four hours of sleep; that does it, for me," says Shah Rukh Khan. 'Iron Lady' Margaret Thatcher isn't far behind — she ruled over Britain with as little sleep on her side. TV host Jay Leno tickles your funny bone with, again, four hours of snooze, while 'Material Girl' Madonna belts out chartbusters with minimum beauty sleep. Benjamin Franklin mirrored Thomas Edison's contempt for sleeping long hours, when he said, "There will be sleeping enough in the grave". Dozing for a mere two to four hours every night, he gave us the famous quote, "Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise".
