And SRK isn't someone who would refuse to use whatever advantage he had to pursue his career ambitions.

Sure KJo isn't exactly a paragon of honesty and steadfast loyalty but then SRK would sell himself to the highest bidder, and when KJo's films were working for him and KJo's admiration kept him in blockbusters he played along with whatever KJo, the cash cow, wanted.

SRK's heart was NEVER into it with the same intensity as KJo's was. KJo would have come out publicly as SRK's second wife but SRK wouldn't have heard of it. He's a very cagey man and not one to risk it all for a love that is largely based (at least from HIS side) on just how much career mileage he can get out of the partner.

Considering all the negativity surrounding the SRK/PC rumors it's not surprising he's pulled back the reins on that too.

Dude dismantled his public image with a seemingly intentional thoroughness in 2011 what with the PC debacle, the overdose of PR for the thuddingly 3rd rate Ra.One---which served more than anything else to make the public sick of him and resentful of his film before it even released---Gauri's drugged appearance when she can be bothered to appear at all, and the blatant displeasure of Aryan at the whole dog and pony show that is "dad" have each added to the dimming of SRK's public lustre.

So I don't blame KJo entirely for dumping SRK.

In any relationship where one loves too much and the other is only there for what he can get sooner or later the used will have to move on from the user.

The fact that KJo is still friends with Gauri has significance here, I think.

The thing to watch over the coming year is whether SRK tries to re-ingratiate himself with KJo and the old gang or whether he continues to chase around with PC and try to cultivate Lady Gaga---whose cringingly pointless interview with SRK was one of his low points of 2011.

In case of pc-srk ..I dont think SRK has a choice..Pc is lady SRK..Why will she put her career / life on line for him??Yes she likes him and Loyal to him..But her Loyalty goes only so far..She was on guard in every promotional event during Don2..

To be frank he used her to get rid off his Gay image..Now that is accomplished at least partly mission accomplished..sure she is not innocent to get used like that ..so there will be business deals coming out of it..

Both srk and pc are two sides of same coin..They calculate the risk/advantage ..i dont think love/shove/lust has a place in their dictionary..

That's Kinda Shady, Kareena

Remember how a source on the sets of Ramgopal Varma's Sarkaar Raj leaked information that Aishwarya Rai bought expensive designer shades as part of her costume for the movie, billed it to the production, then took the glasses home? Well, now there's almost identical gossip involving Kareena Kapoor.

A source within Illuminati Films (Saif Ali Khan's production company) reveals that Kareena billed the production for a few expensive sunglasses she bought as part of her wardrobe for Agent Vinod. Given that her fianc is the producer of the film, Kareena reportedly thought it was okay for the production to pick up the tab, although she kept the glasses for herself after the shoot. Meanwhile, the film, whose budget has ballooned considerably over the past year due to a never-ending shooting and post-production process, has been nicknamed Ageing Vinod by smart-alec insiders.

This is so pathetic. Don't these Bollywood celebrities earn in crores? Then why the need to be so cheap and stingy? A behavior like this coming from celebs like Aish and Kareena is in bad taste.

This entire scenario actually reminds me of these random Desis I've always seen at Dunkin Donuts. They order alot, and I mean, ALOT of breakfast...but on the way out, they take two hands full of those free sugar packets! Same thing in McDonalds...once this lady ordered $5 worth of food, but took so many of those ketchup packets! What were you trying to prove, lady?

Dex! You're back! You were missed! 😳

not more cringeworthy than folks who go to duty free shops at Heathrow, buy nothing and ask for free plastic bags.

This will soon turn into a 'We are so desi' thread. 😆
