Mumbai: No one sells like Shah Rukh Khan in Bollywood. Even before the release of ‘My Name is Khan’, his film is being seen as a hit considering the hype surrounding every little detail of the film.

Latest news has it that Fox Star Studio has reportedly bought the rights of the film for a whopping Rs 100 crores! Added to this, the film is said to be rich on music side as well with songs having chartbusting potential.
Critics, who have seen the rushes of MNIK, were overwhelmed by what they saw and heard. They were all praises for the trio of Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy, the music composers and director Karan Johar.

‘My Name is Khan’ has been in news for all the right reasons. Super hit onscreen couple SRK and Kajol will be seen together after a long time. Written by Shibani Bathija, the film is about a Muslim (Shah Rukh) who suffers from the Asperger syndrome, a form of autism that impacts social interaction abilities, and he is arrested as a suspected terrorist in post-9/11 Los Angeles after authorities mistake his disability for suspicious behaviour.

Bollywood beauties getting down to businessSocialTwist Tell-a-Friend
Some of the top Bollywood beauties are planning another career, donning the producer’s cap. Now they won’t be just talking about the stories, scripts, roles and characters, but they will also talk money!


Katrina Kaif, who has been marked as a wise businesswoman, with the right moves in the field of endorsements, was planning to go for a coffee shop sometime ago. She will now step into movie production. "Though nothing is concrete yet, but the thought of producing a film left a strong impact on me and I am willing to create opportunities for myself.” It is said that she's planning to remake a French film. “It is just a thought and I would be able to comment on it once everything gets finalised," she added.


Shilpa Shetty’s production ‘ The Man’ had taken a backseat during the IPL, it is back to action now. “I think I am one of the first actress to have her own production house.” Says Shilpa proudly. “Though Sushmita [Sen] has started with one too, mine will go on floor much earlier," said an optimistic Shilpa who is learning the do’s and don’ts from beau Raj Kundra. "Raj is helping me understand the nitty gritties of film production.”



After making Yanni sing for her, Mallika goes all out for making her dreams come true in the field of production, with technicians of international standard. Rumours say that Mallika has named her production house ‘Blue Velvet’ and her brother Vikram is taking care of it at present.


The perfect match of beauty and talent, Tabu, is also producing Telugu movies in collaboration with UTV Motion Pictures back in Hyderabad.

Shahid’s Dhan Te Nan moment

Shahid’s Dhan Te Nan momentSocialTwist Tell-a-Friend
Vishal Bhardwaj’s brilliant composition Dhan Te Nan has taken the nation by storm. The lead actor of Kaminey, Shahid Kapur on whom the song is picturised, tells us about the time he first heard the song.

“Vishal looks very shareef, but actually his looks are deceptive. After all he has written Kaminey; the screenplay and dialogues. Fortunately, he has only given the dancing category to someone else otherwise he would have got all the credits,” laughs Shahid.

Talking about the phenomenal song, he says, “One day Vishal called me to the studio. He has a very quiet manner. He asked me to sit, make myself at home and offered me tea and coffee. Then he requested me to listen to the new song he had composed and give my opinion on it,” recalls the actor. He continues, “So I took the headphones, the song started playing Dhan Te Nan and I almost fell of my chair. I couldn’t believe the same guy had made such a powerful song. I really loved it when I heard it.”

Jab We Met had Mauja Mauja and Nagada Nagada, Kismat Konnection had Aai Paapi and now Kaminey has Dhan Te Nan. All the songs have been super hits and make for great dance tracks. Shahid Kapur is one of the best, most fluid dancers in the industry.

So, what does dancing mean to him? “I think I started dancing because I loved it and enjoyed it. I was born in 1981 and Michael Jackson was huge at the time so I danced to his songs. Apart from that it has become a part of my job and it’s important for me to know the technical aspects. Essentially I enjoy dancing. I think dancing is a hugely creative art form and you can express so much through it,” concludes the adorable actor.
