Kunder gets some Chillies weather!
By: Tushar Joshi
June 8, 2007

Shah Rukh Khan is in talks with the Jaan-E-Mann director (and good friend Farah Khan's hubby) to finance his new project

If all goes well, Shah Rukh Khan's Red Chillies Entertainment will produce Jaan-E-Mann director Shirish Kunder's second film.

Kunder is SRK's good friend and is also Farah Khan's husband.

A souce close to SRK confirms, "Yes, Red Chillies is looking into the feasibility of producing Shirish's next film. Talks are on and details will be shared once the project is finalised."

Sci-fi adventure

Film editor-turned-director Kunder's last film, Jaan-e-Mann, wasn't a blockbuster but was hailed for its stylish treatment.

His second film, however, won't have any romance but will be an out-and-out sci-fi adventure.

"The project in discussion will have loads of special effects and the treatment will be on par with a Hollywood film. Shah Rukh has already heard the story and is excited about the subject.

The script is ready, but casting has to be done. Shah Rukh was impressed with the way Shirish made Jaan-e-Mann and definitely wants to work with him," a source adds.

Does this mean the film will also star Shah Rukh? "Yes, that is being discussed as well. The film won't have a huge star cast. The focus will remain on a few key characters."

Lavish production

Another aspect being speculated is the budget of the film; sources claim the budget will cross the Rs 50 crore mark.

The source says, "The film will definitely have lavish production values, but it's difficult to estimate the exact cost at this point."

SRK's Red Chillies VFX will be in charge of managing the special effects on the project.

"They've already been given the brief of the film and are busy preparing presentations for Shah Rukh's approval." The movie is slated to go on floors sometime next year.

Previously, Shirish Kunder has edited...

Some tips for Shah Rukh Khan

After Deepika Padukone, it's the turn of another model-turned-actor, Shawar Ali to get Shah Rukh Khan's advice. Shawar is doing a cameo role in Farah Khan's forthcoming film Om Shanti Om .

And Shawar told us that during the shooting SRK gave him some important tips. He told Shawar that one should always be ready to learn from the mistakes and see to it that it's not repeated again.

"Shah Rukh would make me sit on the monitor and see from behind the camera as to how he shoots with different variations for the same scene," he says.

But even Shawar started giving SRK some tips, fitness ones! Do we see a mutual admiration society forming here?

Karisma Kapoor had a blast

Thursday, June 07, 2007 08:47 IST

Madhuri Dixit may have stolen a march over her but Karisma Kapoor seems to be in no tearing hurry to make her own 'comeback'. But as far as the silverscreen is concerned, she'll be seen shortly in Shah Rukh Khan's 'Om Shanti Om'.

Kareena persuaded her to be part of the mega song in the film which has over 40 stars coming together. "When I walked onto the set, my first thought was 'Oh my God, how did I get dragged into this'? It was a great feeling to be back on a film set and to see so many people I've worked with over the years."

Meanwhile, Karisma has donned the greasepaint for John Mathew Mathan of 'Sarfarosh' fame — but this time it's an advertisement for a popular fan. As for films, she'd rather not jump the gun. "It's taking time, because I won't do a film for the sake of it. It'll take something substantial to tear me away and spend time from my daughter." And the grapevine says, that day isn't too far off.

Sallu gifts new-found friend SRK 2 paintings

However, SRK is not allowed to see them until he moves to his new apartment

Posted On Wednesday, May 30, 2007

Ashwini Deshmukh

Now it's Shah Rukh Khan's turn to get a taste of Salman Khan's painting skills. If sources are to be believed Salman has now gifted Shah Rukh two life-size canvasses. What more, Salman has nicely wrapped the paintings and wants SRK to take a look at them, only after he moves into his new six-storey apartment just behind Mannat.

The story goes that Salman has wanted to shower gifts on Shah Rukh before he moves to his new apartment. That's when he decided to purchase two life-size canvasses from London. Says a source close to the actor, "Salmanbhai has just gifted two huge paintings to Shah Rukh. These are made by him especially for his new place, which is coming up behind Mannat."

Obviously, Shah Rukh is pleasantly surprised at this gesture and has been telling his friends about it. A close friend of SRK says, "Yes, I knew that Salman had been working on a painting for Shah Rukh. He has gifted Shah Rukh two big paintings. Of course, Shah Rukh is extremely happy with the gift. In fact, Shah Rukh Khan is glad that Salman is pursuing his hobby with such passion. He has expressed this on several occasions."

Salim Khan further adds, "Which father wouldn't be happy to see that his own child possesses this kind of talent? As far as the painting is concerned, he has been doing it for a while. It is almost close to Salman's hit film."

Go for it, SRK

And now Shah Rukh Khan is set to become the next superhero, reportedly in Shirish Kunder's next

Back to Section Stories Posted On Friday, June 08, 2007

Sandipan Dalal

Shah Rukh Khan and Farah Khan's association is turning out to be more than mutually beneficial. Even before Om Shanti Om hits the editing room, SRK has agreed to do a sci-fi film with Farah's husband Shirish Kunder, and in all likelihood it's a superhero film. Which means that SRK is soon to become a superhero.

Sources indicate that the trend of desi-superhero worshipping is here to stay. After the likes of Krrish (Krrish now gears up to fight the demons within in the next instalment) and Drona (this superhero is yet to make an appearance), Shah Rukh and Shirish might just have something better to offer. And we are not complaining.

Shah Rukh Khan

The buzz is that these leading actors — Hrithik Roshan, Abhishek Bachchan and now Shah Rukh — are having a fist fight over producing the best Bollywood superhero. While the Bachchans are working hard at making Drona one of its kind, SRK has also joined the bandwagon with this ambitious project.

While the makers continue to be tight-lipped, our sources tell us that extensive research is in progress. Shirish and his team are busy trying to create 'a gentleman extraordinaire' who not only rescues women in distress but also plays a pivotal role in environmental issues as important as global warming, says our source.

Shah Rukh, who has been trying to up the quality of special effects at his VFX studio, will be shouldering the responsibility of special effects in this film. He has been working at making his studio truly FX-savvy. In an earlier interview, the actor had highly spoken about the special effects used in the film 300, which is based on Frank Miller's graphic novel about the Battle of Thermopylae (in 480 B.C.) and his plans of taking optical illusions further.

Says our source, "Of late Shah Rukh has been talking about an extremely creative film. After much brainstorming he is working in tandem with Shrish for this film. But the film will hit the floors only next year." Farah Khan was unavailable for comment.
