The gift of the gab

Our attention was brought to one aspect of stardom that hardly gets reported on: stars and their relationship with teleprompters: apparently Akshay Kumar insists on one even for a two-line dialogue; both Amitabh and Shekhar Suman prefer that their Hindi dialogues be written in the Devanagari script and not the usual Roman.

Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar


Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan


Shah Rukh meanwhile is reported to prefer the presence of a teleprompter but improvises considerably while using it to add flavour and freshness to his delivery.

And the cake goes to Salman, who does not take the assistance of a teleprompter at all! Apparently, even his lengthy Big Boss speeches were all done impromptu! That's called having the gift of the gab!

That's because someone reads/prompts him through an earphone. Then he improvises.

This writer needs to research more.

Shekhar used to be the superstar of TV once upon a time. Remember Movers & Shakers?

I said he improvises it.

I think, the article is not only talking about TV hosting, but the award shows as well. Not long ago I read, he doesn't like to read from teleprompter; he likes his prompts through earphones. May be someone gives him one/two-liners... rest he adds.
