Shah Rukh Khan sheds some light on the mysteries behind Scorpions and Scorpios

​ ​ I looked up Scorpios on the net and found that they are the cars Rohit Shetty gleefully sends flying into the air. On further research I arrived at Scorpio the sun sign. I found that being a Scorpio implies the following list of qualities: determination, fearlessness, sensuality, poise, loyalty, ambition, intuitiveness, a jealous and controlling nature, secretiveness, resentfulness, ruthlessness and a tendency towards mystery! Much as I would like to pontificate on all these wonderful (or not so wonderful) traits, I (as a true blooded Scorpio) am supposed to possess, I think 'mystery' is the one that lends itself most to fifteen hundred words on a good November morning. As a kid, I was an observer of people. I remember observing that a legendary uncle of mine would assume a morose, pondering posture now and then and stare deeply into the universe as if it held a great secret only he could decipher. "Interesting," I thought, "it giv...

Shah Rukh Khan has confessed that his father has always been his favourite romantic hero. The 48-year-old actor explained in detail the love story of his parents, when his father was 29 years old and had met his mother literally in an accident. Once his father came across a terrible accident, where a car had crashed into one of the pillars around India Gate and had overturned, trapping the passengers inside, which included his mother, along with her sisters and father, Andpersand Magazine reported. His father and his cousin turned the car over and pulled out the passengers, out of which his mother was the most severely injured and due to excessive loss of blood needed a transfusion and as faith had it, his father's blood matched hers and he literally saved her life. Unfortunately his mother had temporarily lost memory of her past six months and on his grandfather's request, everyday since then his father would look after his mother and eventually fell in love wi...

Shah Rukh Khan thanks Kajol as 'Baazigar' completes 20 years
