He Khan(t?) do it?!

FORShah Rukh, Kaun Banega Crorepati must have been a difficult task. In films, Shah Rukh acts the role of the character and his

UNDOUBTEDLY it was an outstanding performance. I always believed that SRKwould emulate his predecessor.

BIGB was the best. But the contestants reacted like he was a school principal. SRK is like a sports teacher. So contestants would feel a lot more free with SRK. KBC rocks.

I SAW the show and liked it. But I think SRK talks a bit too much. He is used to performing energetically on the big screen, but this appears odd on small screen. Please advise him to talk less and concentrate more on the questions and answers.

SIMON Fernandes
SRK TRIED to imitate Big B. His voice did not match up to Bachchan's, he slouched and clasped the contestant's hand too often. Given the opportunity, any good actor can do what SRK has done. It is not a big achievement or some great performance.

HIREN Saraiya
YOUR headline should have read 'He Khant do it'. Shah Rukh must have forgotten that this is not a Karan Johar or Yash Chopra film.
It was apparent that he wanted to show he was better than Big B. All in all, it was a poor performance. Idon't expect KBC to last long.

No, he Khant!

''KHAN he do it?'' No he Khant!
SRK might be good in his own capacity, but if a comparison is to be made, he is way behind Amitabh Bachchan.
The aura and the charm that characterised KBCwith Mr Bachchan is missing. The personality and character of the show has weakened.
Most importantly, Mr Bachchan's command over the language and his presentation style got us glued to the programme.
After Monday's opening show, I don't think I will be drawn to see every episode, like I used to do earlier.
Let us accept the fact that however hard SRKtries he will not be able to stretch his 5 ft 9 inches to 6 ft 3 inches, which he admits.
Kyunki Don banna mushkil hi nahin, namumkin hai.
SRK is a horse that is fast and used to races. But Mr Bachchan is an elephant, royal and majestic. Remember, ''Haathi baith bhi jaaye to bhi ghode (ya gadhe) se uncha hi rahata hai.''

SHAH RUKH tried to behave smart to show that he is better than Amitabh Bachchan. Somebody please tell him he doesn't compare with Mr Bachchan.

DIVYESH
I don't think SRK comes close to Amitabh Bachchan. Mr Bachchan was sophisticated and entertaining. His dig at Mr Bachchan on Hindi speaking left a bad taste in the mouth.

THEfirst impression is the lasting impression. Badshah Khan was great in the first episode of KBC. So what if he does not use sophisticated Hindi with a sprinkle of Sanskrit, which we cannot understand anyway! But he excels in our matrubhasha.

HEMEN Shah
Shah Rukh Khan's debut on KBC was excellent. He will get a firm grip on things after a few episodes.
SHRADDHA Shastri
Whether it is Koyla, K2H2, K3G, KANK or KBC3, Shah Rukh was, he is and will always be the best. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to express our views.

MAHESH Engineer
Shah Rukh should watch himself in KBC. It will be an overdue self-realisation and introspection process.

RUPALI Suryavanshi
I DID not like Shah Rukh Khan on KBC. Amitabh was better.

MANOJ Rastogi
SRKis known to use the media to his advantage. The show has lost its charm, dignity and essence. SRK does not compare with Amitabh Bachchan in language or charisma.
The music video was downright vulgar.
As for Ekta Kapoor, Karan Johar and Ashok Pandit's eulogies, ''paani mein rahna hain to magarmach se bair nahin karte''.
