Why SRK turned down Sushmita Sen’s request?
If Shahrukh Khan does not forget those who do him a favour, it goes the same for those who refuse to do him a favour. We all know how attached SRK was to Farah Khan’s project ‘Om Shanti Om’. The famous ‘Deewangi’ song of the film which had galaxy of stars was possible because no one could (read dare) refuse SRK’s request to appear in the song. Well, if you remember, it was Sushmita Sen who was conspicuous by her absence in the song. Although Sush was SRK’s heroine in his last film ‘Main Hoon Na’ also directed by Farah Khan, she excused herself on pretext of being busy. She is now paying the price for refusing the offer it seems.
Recently, she approached Shah Rukh Khan to do a cameo in her ambitious home production ‘Rani Laxmibai’ but she was turned down by him on the grounds of lack of time. According to rumor mill King Khan has not forgotten that she didn’t appear in the title song of his film and hence turned down her call.

Bollywood queen Priyanka Chopra is going high these days. With her packed schedule and too much of workload, the gal is working hard to give in her best. The word doing rounds, is that Miss Chopra recently shot non- stop for 21 hours for Madhur bhandarkar’s ‘Fashion’. She did so to complete a major portion of the film before flying off for Tarun Mansukhani film ‘Dostana’ in Miami.
“We started the shot at 5 am and it went on till the next morning, everyone was exhausted but Priyanka was extremely professional, she didn’t complain or throw tantrums even once,” says a unit member.
Madhur too confirms the news and says, “Yes, Priyanka was very professional. When she saw that I was not well and in-spite of that I was on the sets, 24/ 7, she just gave in,” he laughs. Let’s hope the Guinness world record guys are reading this!
SRK - Give way girls, the item boys have come!
The craze for his six-pack abs in ‘Drad-e-disco’ had just started waning, that he has come up again beaming with energy in Rakesh Roshan’s ‘Krazzy 4’. Yes, guessed it right. Shahrukh will be seen in an item number in the movie dancing to the tunes of Rajesh Roshan on an English song titled ‘Break Free’, rendered by Vishal.
Hrithik’s designer in Dhoom 2, Anahita Shroff has worked on Shah Rukh’s look and appearance in the item number. It is both a combination of sophistication and killer instinct. Anahita gave him the ideal look with a white shirt and black trouser, which was the first look and then gave him the combo of red and black. In addition to that, a black designer holster was added in order to portray a classy façade.
Everyone of the movie’s team is all praises for SRK. “Hrithik was to do the song, but due to his knee injury, we were in a dilemma of sorts. I approached Shah Rukh and he very kindly agreed to bail us out,” explains Rakesh. “The song required energy, and that’s what Shah Rukh has in abundance.”
Director Jaideep Sen tells us, “Shah Rukh plays a superstar performing at an award function. The situation required a larger than life stage and a larger than life personality. Shah Rukh has taken it to another level altogether.”

Will Amitabh and Rekha act together again?
This is a real surprising news. The couple which created sensation with their on-screen and off-screen chemistry chose not to act together owing to the controversies regarding their affair. Now, the news doing rounds is that the yesteryear hit jodi of Amitabh Bachchan and Rekha are making a comeback in a film titled ‘ALADDIN’, to be directed by Jhankar Beats fame director Sujoy Ghosh. The actors jodi will appear together onscreen after almost a gap of more than two decades (around 26 years). But sadly the news will settle only as headlines and will not turn out to be a reality as the director, Sujoy, denied about they being together in ALADDIN, when we contacted. Further he also confirmed that it’s only Big B who is signed for the film, playing the character of ‘Gini’ and not Rekha. Well all those brokenhearted fans can at least enjoy the news, if not the movie.
