The first CHAKDE! INDIA promo (with JHOOM BARABAR JHOOM), met with mixed reactions. Some loved it, some found it unimpressive. Those who loved it were happy about the fact that Shah Rukh Khan, 'the actor', was finally here. And with a performance befitting his stature. Coming to those who did not appreciate the first promo, they were, perhaps, expecting another Raj-Rahul act from SRK, or were looking for glamorous faces (like Preity and Rani!), amidst realistic hockey players!
Cutting a long story short, the subsequent promos got uniform acclaim and when Shah Rukh Khan was queried about his inspiration for the true-to-life hockey coach, 'Kabir Khan', he was forthright and honest as usual. He disclosed that his school day sports teacher, Brother Eric D'Souza (presently in Shillong) was his inspiration for the role. The superstar further elaborated that Brother D'Souza taught him not just hockey, but football and cricket as well.
Brother D'Souza, if you are reading this, here is wishing you a long and healthy life and many more Shah Rukhs!
| SRK used to write limericks! |
| Author Anupama Chopra shares anecdotes about King Khan. |
| She has just written a book titled King of Bollywood Shah Rukh Khan and the Seductive World of Indian Cinema . Her husband, Vidhu Vinod Chopra, had produced the Munnabhai series. Author Anupama Chopra shares anecdotes about King Khan and the Chopras date with Dutt. Was SRK interested in directing serials? Shah Rukh had written a television serial titled Ekanth that he wished to direct in the late 80s. Doordarshan had rejected the proposal. It was about three friends who had come down to Mumbai from Pune to become movie stars. While two of them succeeded, the third, who was also the most talented one, met with failure. This person ended up killing one of the other two friends. How did you know that SRK had told Gauri's aunt, Neeru: I will become a Hindu and change my name to Jitendra Kumar Tully. But how will I get uncircumcised? It came from him! He always had a great off-colour sense of humour. Its not easy to pull off such jokes unless you have a lot of self-belief. After facing rejection in his first film, SRK had told his director and his author-companion, Arundhati Roy, that he would one day go on to win an Oscar for playing a gay role. Later on, he had declined to attend a function in Arundhatis honour for her Booker Prize. Is SRK vindictive? No. He couldn't get over the hurt of rejection. His role in In Which Annie Gives It Those Ones didn't have enough screen time to warrant a name. To add salt to the wound, others in the cast had got good roles. Whats this thing about SRK's aptitude for writing poetry? Yes, he used to write impromptu limericks. He started writing when he was seven or eight. But, he stopped writing after his father, Meer, passed away. Very little is known about Shah Rukh's sister Its a sensitive subject. He told me about it as he was recalling his father's death when he was only 15. Meer had been detected with oral cancer. Shah Rukh described his father's death to me and this is how I put it in my book: When Meer died, Fatima (Shah Rukh's mother) did not break the news to Shah Rukh immediately. She just said Meer wanted to meet them. Meer lay alone with his mouth slightly parted and his eyes half-shut. His body was icy cold. Shah Rukh furiously rubbed his feet, trying to infuse some warmth. The sight of blood trickling out of his father's ear would stay with him his whole life. Fatima and Shah Rukh returned home early in the morning. The driver had left by then and Shah Rukh got behind the wheels of their Fait. When Fatima asked him when he had learned to drive, he replied.Just now. When Meer died, Shah Rukh went to fetch Shahnaz but didn't break the news on their way back home. In my book, I mention: When she saw Meer's body, swatched in white, lying inert in the center of their tiny living room, surrounding by wailing women, Shahnaz collapsed like a tree felled by an axe. Her fall shattered glasses of water that were placed on the floor. For days, Shahnaz did not shed a tear. Instead she retreated into a depression from which she would never fully emerge. Whats the most boring topic for SRK? He is tired of answering questions on his sexuality. PRIYANKA DASGUPTA ,TNN |

| The SRK brand can't make a film good or bad: Shah Rukh |
| Mr.Khan in conversation with Princy Jain |
| Cut to Yashraj studio. On ground level, he's shooting for Farah Khan's Om Shanti Om and has already made trips to the lounge on the first floor. He smiles that deep smile of his, settles down with a cuppa, puts on his spectacles.. and yeah, so here's Shah Rukh Khan in a sporty conversation with Princy Jain Sixteen new girls as your co-stars in Chak de India.. this must be a first. After working for so many years, one becomes a little mechanical. The girls had never acted before. They would say their lines of dialogue in a completely unexpected manner. It was strange for a while but then they sounded so very right. Often, I would say my lines, and asked them to react. It was all very unlikely and new. Some of them must be your fans.. right? Before the shoot, we had several reading sessions which made things casual between us. The girls must have been about five or six when they saw my films. They would seek my advice. During fun moments, they would kiss and hug me. We became co-actors. Did you learn to play hockey? Or is that acting? The game's not new for me, I used to play hockey in school. But when I played for the film, I sucked,I was really awful. I have no stamina left.. the technique of hockey has changed. Astro Turf itself is very tiring. It's often said, "SRK decides his role and films. That's incorrect. I am not one of those actors who goes to a filmmaker, gets myself cast and then become a ghost director.It's shameful to accept but this, I thought I would be able to beat these girls but they kicked my butt. While playing with them, I realised that it would be better if I use my status as a superstar and not practise at all.. (laughs) To be honest, I did Chak de because I wanted to play hockey. Since I lead a very protected life, it was very refreshing to be on the ground.. to feel the air brushing my and sweat trickling down my body. It was like getting a few days of freedom which I know of, but have not lived for many years. Earlier, if I could run for 10 km, now I can't go on for even three or four km. But it's still so very important to have some sports in your life. I play soccer every Sunday now. For years, you have been a conventional lover boy with crazy hair and moist eyes. Of late you have been experimenting with your looks and characters. Why? I am just an actor. It's often said, "SRK decides his role and films." That's incorrect. I am not one of those actors who goes to a filmmaker, gets myself cast and then become a ghost director. I am an employee of my director and producers. So if Amol Palekar asked me to grow a moustache, I did that. In Don, Farhan (Akhtar) wanted a stylish look, so I followed his instructions. Here too, (director) Shimit Amin and Adi (producer Aditya Chopra) said, "You have never had beard." So I said, "Let's do it." But these are minor points. A look makes no difference. SRK will always remain the actor he is. How did it go with the beard? You have always been clean-shaven. Oh, a beard's very scratchy. When you wake up in the morning and take a bath, you still don't feel clean. I'm not used to a beard because I shave every day . You wash your face and water sticks to your beard. It's very stressful. Also, I have grey in my beard and I have to keep dyeing it. It sticks on your skin, so it's not a very good pleasant experience. I hope I don't have to grow a beard for another couple of years at least. Have you read your biography by Anupama Chopra.. are you satisfied with it? I haven't read it. Anu did offer me a peep into the manuscript but I refused. I guess reading about my life would be very boring. Also I told her that if I do read it, I will want to change it. So I'm fine with the way it is. But certain chapters talk about your links with the underworld. Are you fine with that? It would be unfair to hamper anyone's creativity I have read Anu's other books, I have full faith in her. The book is about me.. and Bollywood through my eyes. It's not about the underworld. I have received feedback from all corners of the world, saying it makes for an interesting read. I guess that's more important than anything else. Can the SRK brand value make a film succeed? I don't know. Chak De India doesn't have anything that works conventionally in the Indian film industry It doesn't have a heroine, there's no romantic angle, no songs. It does have 16 new girls, which is kind of unique. The SRK brand can't make a film good or bad. I have not created any brand for myself. Other brands have made SRK the brand he is. Every film I do takes away a part of my life.It does have Shah Rukh which is okay but even his films have failed. So even that can go wrong. A good film is a good film. The SRK brand can't make a film good or bad. I have not created any brand for myself. Other brands have made SRK the brand he is. Every film I do takes away a part of my life. The brand SRK might not be that significant but that part of my life is. For that, I would want the film to have some moments of good cinema. So as in sport, cinema is all about winning..isn't it? No, it's not all about winning.. or losing. It's more about team spirit for the nation. Patriotism is not about praying for India to win and Pakistan to lose. That's a wrong perception.. and it needs to be changed. Source:HindustanTimes |

| Saawariya promo with Chak De India | |
| By IndiaFM News Bureau, August 6, 2007 - 13:27 IST | |
| Saawariya is one film that has been in news since the time it went under production. The film is a big venture as it is directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali and stars Salman Khan and Rani Mukherjee. But the biggest reason for the high anticipation levels for Saawariya is because the film will launch two star kids, Ranbir Kapoor and Sonam Kapoor. As we all know by now that Ranbir is Rishi and Neetu Kapoor's son while Sonam is Anil Kapoor's daughter. The film buffs are surely excited to see the kids of these successful actors perform onscreen. The hot news is that the theatrical of Saawariya will be played in cinema halls with the Chak De India. YRF's Chak De India starring Shah Rukh Khan will hit the screens this week. So when you go to watch the Indian girl's hockey team in action in Chak De India, you will most definitely be treated with the promo of Saawariya. |
