Shahrukh Khan in real trouble?
What a Catch-22 situation for the King Khan! On one side, IPL, and on the other, Kya Aap Paanchvi Pass Se Tez Hain. And both are playing almost at the same time on primetime television.
Probably he should have postponed his Paanchvi Pass by a month, because television TRPs are hitting all time low for all the soaps and reality shows due to IPL cricket matches. When Dravid gets bowled by Ishant Sharma, and hot cheer-girls are dancing for every six, four and wicket, who would like to watch reality shows and soaps?! Maybe few ladies, but when it comes to cricket, men will do anything. Don't be shocked if you hear… 'A 45-yr-old man breaks his television set because his wife would not let him watch an IPL game, because she wanted to watch Kyun ki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi.'
Let's guess what is running in SRK's mind… Since Shahrukh will get only the revenue generated by the tickets sold at his home stadium, he must be praying that the kolkata crowd comes to the stadium to watch the Knightriders, and the rest of the nation watches Paanchvi Pass on television.
Kasampiya!
