Will My Name Is Khan salvage Shah Rukh Khan’s sinking career?

The year 2009 had not been so good for our “Bollywood Badshah,” Shah Rukh Khan. In February, Billu was released. It was his only movie throughout the year and it tanked at the box office. For a long time, the Khan had been suffering from back injury and then there was his shoulder injury that caused him so much pain that he had to postpone his shooting for My Name Is Khan. Still, Shah Rukh Khan can not be blamed alone. The year 2009 had been very bad for Bollywood, with Swine Flu, IPL, Bollywood producer-multiplex owner standoff, and economic recession cost Bollywood a whopping Rs.7 billion.

Now, a new year is coming filled with hopes and promises. The recession has ended and our King Khan is back on track with his new movie, My Name is Khan. The movie revolves around the story of an Indian Muslim living in the U.S and the adversity he faces after the 9/11 terrorist attack. The movie is scheduled to be released on February 12, 2009.

Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol Still Most Popular on-screen Pair of Bollywood

Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol are still the dream pair of Bollywood. The two most popular actors have churned out many super hit films for in Bollywood including Baazigar (1993), Karan Arjun (1995), Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge (1995), Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (1998) and Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham (2001). Interestingly, the two last appeared on the big screen in the lead roles in Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham (they were seen in last year’s Om Shanti Om, where Kajol made a special appearance).

The good news for the Bollywood fans is that Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol are going to appear together in Karan Johar’s next film Khan. Karan Johar had approached Kajol a female lead role for his last film Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna that Kajol turned down because she was not interested to stay abroad for about 90 days leaving her child Nysa. Kajol signed for the movie Khan last December.

Sawf News reported:

"Yes, Kajol is doing my film and I'm very happy… ," he said triumphantly.

Recalling how he failed to rope in Kajol opposite Shah Rukh in Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna, Johar said, "She hadn't turned down my film, per se. I needed her to shoot out of the country for ninety days and she didn't want to leave Nysa for such a long time."

"This time around I told her, 'I need you. You just have to do my film.' That was it," he added.

As per an ongoing online pool that Sawf News is conducting shows that Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol are still most popular on screen pair of Bollywood. The second place goes to Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif on screen chemistry. Akshay and Katrina presented two super hit films: Namastey London and Welcome last year. That is why, the on screen chemistry of Akshay and Katrina are getting popular among the fans. Now, let us see if the charming presence of Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol brings box office success for Khan and Karan Johar makes some quick cash in.

Mallika Sherawat is in Karan Johar's next FILM!!!

Mallika Serawat does not need any introduction to the Indian movie goers. Her sizzling on screen performance, her controversial kissing scenes and bed scenes has turned her into Bollywood sex symbol. If you are a regular Bollywood movie buff you would know that any movie in which Mallika is starring is not something that can be watched with family members. The latest news about this sexy actress is that she is appearing in Karan Johar’s upcoming movie. I am quoting from India FM:

Rumours are rife that Bollywood sex-kitten Mallika Sherawat may star in Karan Johar’s next film.

Though no official confirmation is available yet, but the rumours originated in a rehearsal of recent talk show, where Johar reportedly recorded talks with the sexy Mallika.

It was recorded in Dharma Production's studio recently, where the entire crew of Johar's production house and also their families turned up to watch the sultry actress in action.

Karan Johar, like Aditya Chopra, is the second generation of a movie family and famous for making romantic movies like Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Kal Ho Naa Ho and family movies like Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna, and Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. Now the million dollar question is what kind of movie Karan would make with Mallika ? Whatever the movie would be, it is definitely worth watching don’t you think(do not think about taking your to the theatre) ?
