But you may be surprised to hear the popularity of this magazine. It is edited in many languages across the world. Those who have got chance to feature the cover page feel lucky guy. Bollywood megastar Shah Rukh Khan is perhaps one of those lucky persons who feature the cover page of GQ magazine in the February issue.

King Khan, as he is fondly known as, is seen sporting a disheveled, spiky look and holding a placard which states 'Where's The Love?' The actor talks about a wide variety of topics in this issue such as his equation with the Bachchans, Aamir Khan and Salman Khan to his oddest quirks. Speaking about quirks, SRK says, "I have a strange attachment to socks. They should feel right. I could be missing a flight, but if my socks are wrong, I have to take them off. I won't wear nylon socks with sneakers. The only time I get disturbed during shooting is over my socks. You can't give me brown socks. I hate different-coloured socks.

Super stars are always desirable to their fans. Even fans do not care whether their stars are married or not. Fans always expect that they will spend their life with their favorite stars. It may be possible in dream but not in reality. However, fans do not loss their emotion and hope. That is why, they try hard to impress their super stars and this type of incident is not new for Bollywood super stars. Perhaps Bollywood megastar Shah Rukh Khan is the latest victim. Shah Rukh Khan appeared in a five-star hotel in Ahmedabad. He went there to promote his new movie ‘My Name is Khan'. Here he faced a crazy female fan named Tillana Desai who strongly requested her to accept her love and marry her. This girl was in bridal dress and she wanted to use his star’s family name “Khan” with her name. Nothing worst has happened because Shah Rukh Khan was taken aback from Tillana Desai. It is true that SRK has been impressed by her fan in which way she expressed her love to Shah Rukh. However, he went down on his knees and slipped the ring on her finger.
You should know that Shah Rukh Khan is busy about promoting his new movie ‘My Name is Khan'. In this movie, he paired with Kajol after eight years. ‘My Name is Khan' is much awaited movie to the movie lovers. Shah Rukh Khan acted as an autistic person. It is really a challenging character for him. It is perhaps a first movie which is made about autistic patient. This movie will be released on 12th February 2010.
Ram Gopal Verma is a reputed movie director in Bollywood. His movies deal with various social issues and causes. His recent movie, Rann, tries to expose the media manipulation. For a long time, Ram Gopal Varma had been thinking about making a movie related to media. Two years ago, he was watching a movie channel running an expose’ for five days. Later, he came to know that the entire expose’ was a set up. Then the idea of making Rann came to his mind. Regarding Rann, Ram Gopal Varma said:
“It is the job of media persons to expose everyone and everything and I am exposing them as a filmmaker. There’s nothing personal about it,...Television plays an integral part in an average household and I have attempted to prove that everything we see as news and get influenced by need not necessarily be true. The way a report is packaged, with background music, et al, there is no telling if it is the whole truth or if there is any truth in the story at all,”
Rann starts some of the talented actors of Bollywood including, megastar Amitabh Bachchan, Ritesh Deshmukh, Gul Panag, Suchitra Krishnamurthy and Neetu Chandra. In this movie, Ram Gopal Varma shows how hard the TV journalist’s works. Ram Gopal Varma has great sympathy for the TV journalists and the pressure under which they work because they have to meet the deadlines and present story. It does not matter if the story is true or false. Promo of Rann is already being shown in various television channels and media is very much curious about the movie. The Censor Board had some problem with the theme song of the film. The tune of the theme song some how resembled with that of the national anthem. So, Ram Gopal Varma changed the tune.
On January 19 2010, Bollywood superstar, Salman Khan, attended the ‘Pride of Nation Award’ ceremony at a packed FICCI Auditorium. He was invited by the All-India Anti-Terrorist Front chairman, M. S. Bitta. In the show, Salman spread the word of patriotism through Veer and also honored awards to several awardees. He presented swords to parents of Delhi police officer late M.C. Sharma; Rukhsana Kauser; Kuldeep Singh; Anuradha Gautam; wife of ANI cameraman Vikram Bisht; wife of late Sanjiv Suri and wife of Hindustan Times photographer Pradeep Bhatia. In the function, Salman told reporters:
“To be a brave heart you don’t have to ride a horse and brandish a gleaming sword to frighten the adversary. Some might think it is masochistic to indulge in fisticuffs. All this is nonsense; Generation X must maintain their cool even against greatest provocation. But when it comes to saving an innocent person you shouldn’t think twice before endangering your life,”
Salman Khan’s Veer, is a historical action movie that will be released in theaters on January 22. The movie tells the story of a courageous Indian warrior tribe called the Pindharis and Salman plays the role of the most courageous warrior of the tribe named Veer. In the movie, Salman is paired up with Katrina Kaif look alike Zarine Khan.
In Bollywood, actors and movie producers go any distance to promote their movies. They even take many unnecessary risks. Bollywood bad boy, Salman Khan, also did the same thing to promote his upcoming movie, Veer. The 44 year old actor, on January 17th, 2010, raced with top six jockeys at the Mahalakshmi race course to promote his movie Veer. The Bollywood bad boy not only participated in the race but also won the first place. He was awarded a trophy. After winning the trophy, Salman Khan told the reporters:
“I was a bit nervous (before the race). If I'd have lost, people would have thought Salman lost the race and if I'd have won then they would have said that he had to win because he is a star,”
Salman told the reporters that the race was not a set up. Like every other contestants of the race, he gave his hundred percent to win. Salman Khan’s next movie, Veer, is an epic action movie and it involved lots of horse riding. In the movie, Salman rode horse along with camels and elephants. Veer tells the story of a courageous Indian warrior clan, the Pindaris. Salman Khan played the role of Veer, who is the most courageous warrior among the Pindaris. The movie created a lot of buzz. In the movie, new comer Zarine Khan has been paired up with Salman Khan. Among others, the veteran Bollywood actor, Mithun Chakravorthy, and Salman Khan’s brother, Sohail Khan, played major roles.
Finally, popular Bollywood actor and nephew of Aamir Khan, Imran Khan, got engaged to his longtime girlfriend, Avantika Malik. The engagement ceremony took place at Avantika Malik’s family farmhouse in Karjat. Imran Khan and Avantika Malik have been dating for five years. Avantika Malik is the daughter of Vandana Malik who is currently the head honcho of CNBC TV18 channel.
In the ceremony, around three hundred people attended including Imran’s maternal uncle, Aamir Khan, and his current wife Kiran Rao. Aamir Khan came with his son Junaid. Aamir’s ex-wife, Reena, and estranged brother, Faisal Khan, also attended the ceremony. Karan Johar, Abhay Deol, Kunal Kapoor, Kunal Kohli, Purab Kohli, and some other famous Bollywood personalities attended the ceremony.
I wonder if Imran Khan or his girlfriend uses Samsung Metro 5200 mobile phone.

January 6, 2009 Amitabh Bachchan visited Gujarat and met with the Chief Minister of Gujarat Narendra Modi. During their meeting, Amitabh Bachchan requested Narendra Modi to make “Paa” tax free. In exchange, Amitabh Bachchan promised to become a brand ambassador for Gujarat. The notification of tax exemption came on January 8, 2009 and came into affect from January 9, 2009. Narendra Modi in his official blog wrote-
“I met Amitaji earlier but this was the first instinct up being with him at leisure. You must guess how much it must have touched my heart, knowing that he loves Gujarat so much”. Amitabh Bachchan’s Paa tells the story of 13 years old boy named Auro (played by Amitabh Bachchan) who is suffering from a rare genetic defect that causes accelerated aging. In the movie, Amitabh Bachchan’s son Abhishek Bachchan played the character of Auro’s father Amol Arte and Vidya Balan played the role of Auro’s mother. Here is a video clip of Amitabh Bachchan and Narendra Modi getting together.
Aishwarya Rai and Rajinikanth are two super stars of Bollywood in Indian cinema. When it comes to super stars they get all the luxury and comfort at the shooting spot. However, that was not the case for Aishwarya Rai and Rajinikanth when they went to a foreign location to shoot their upcoming movie Endhiran. The crew of Endhiran went to a remote hilli reign to shoot the film and the biggest problem was it was a hilli reign and in accessible by rode. As a result, the shooting crew had to park their car from a long distance from the actual shooting spot. The worst thing was the shooting spot did not have any wash room. So, the team had to mark specific areas covered with thick shrubs and to finish their nature calls and it was very tough for the crew because even if they wanted they could not reach the car as they were located at a long distance from the location. Still Aishwarya Rai and Rajinikanth were very much professional and they did not complain and finish the shooting.
There are a lot of controversies about Aamir Khan’s new released movie ‘3 Idiots’. But in one point all people will agree with me that this was one of the hit movies in 2009. Even one could run well than ‘3 Idiots’. The success of this film puts him more mileage in his career than its makers. This movie could able to earn huge profit. Even we saw him following different style to promote this movie. It proves that Hindi movie lovers want Aamir Khan more than other Bollywood stars. He was invited by many famous people in India. Union Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee was one of them. He invited him to New Delhi to congratulate him.
First the Union Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee invited AK to New Delhi to congratulate him and get him to share his gyaan on his success module. Then AK flew right back to Mumbai to attend the Economic Times Awards and was once again the august company of the FM; and 300 of the most powerful CEOs of India.
Aamir Khan passed a good year in 2009 and now his fans are passionately waiting to see that how he will pass 2010. Can we see him giving more hit movies this year?
Today is special day for Bollywood superstar Hrithik Roshan because 10th January is his birthday. He is now 36 year old. At this age, he is still looking attractive to his fans. I feel surprised to see his Greek god like figure. Hrithik Roshan made his debut in Bollywood with "Kaho Na Pyaar Hain". This movie was box office hit. With this movie he also got much fame and popularity. Since his debut he has acted many hit movies. It is Hrithik Roshan who is the most sought after actor after three Khans in Bollywood. I would like to give him warmest wishes for his birthday.
Very few actors could become successful in Indian politics. So, I am not that surprised that Sanjay Dutt resigned from GS post of Samjawadi Party. However, it is not related to any personal failure. Rather, he did it because he was unhappy with the bad treatment that his close friend Amar Singh was treated by Party leaders.
Bollywood movie director Karan Johar’s new movie MY NAME IS KHAN will release this month. The story of this movie was made based on a true story. The shooting of this film took place in America. Obviously you can see American politics and the effect of it over foreign people. No doubt, you can see USA president Barack Obama in this movie. Are you surprised? Yes, I have to admit that Barack Obama is the busiest person now. So, he can not give any time to act in a movie. The question is that who will play the role of Barack Obama in MY NAME IS KHAN. According to a source, it is heard that Hollywood star Christopher B. Duncan will be seen in the role of USA president.
Christopher B. Duncan has got popularity for his TV show THE JAMIE FOXX Show. I think you will be surprised to see his acting ability. He made his role realistic to the audience.
Salman Khan very often makes news only for wrong reasons, but this time he has done something good by setting up an example of how to behave with kids. The indicant happened during the music launch program of his upcoming movie Veer. Having seen his guard pushing a kid who was trying to meet him, Salman became angry and shouted at the guard. Later on he talked to the kid and presented him a copy of autographed audio CD of the movie. Salman Khan has bad reputation for his short temper, but interestingly he has always been very friendly with the children and he loves children.
Salman Khan’s career could take a new turn with the performance of Veer, an Anil Sharma directorial featuring newcomer Zarine Khan opposite Salman Khan. The movie is slated for release on 22 January. It is a big budget movie and its box office success means a lot for Salman Khan.

This thing may raise a question in the mind of Shah Rukh Khan that how long he will continue it. He started blogging for his IPL club Kolkata Knight Riders but he wrote very few entries. That is why, fans around the world want to see that how long he can keep his interest to do tweeting.

However, she has come under spotlight once again after launching the 2010 PETA calendar (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals).
