The bollywood Khan wonders what is wrong in welcoming everyone to India. Shiv Sena is furious with Shahrukh’s comment on Pakistani cricketers. Shiv Sena will not allow the screening of Shahrukh’s upcoming movie My Name is Khan. Shahrukh Khan was in New York promoting his movie said, “If there is an issue with me you have to sort it out with me and talk to me about my ideology.”

He continued saying, “as far as the film is concerned, it is an incidental thing. According to me, that is not something they should take their ire against and hopefully they will not and nobody will and it will release and, inshallah people will like it.”

When asked him about the Shiv Sena threat of disrupting the screening of his movie, Shahrukh does not apologise. he said, “I have nothing to respond to. I do not understand what My Name is Khan has to do with that. It is not only my film. It has got Karan, Kajol and 150 other people whose livelihood depends on that movie.”

Shahrukh also said, “Everyone has got the right to do what they wish to do in our country that is why it is the biggest democracy apparently.”

Bollywood has successfully made it to the moon. The industry is making its presence felt on a lunar surface 4-lakh km away, a place where first Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed, on 20 July 1969. A New York based organization called The International Lunar Geographic Society, which is only devoted to the study of the moon, has officially declared that a lunar crater in the moon’s sea of Tranquility has been named after Shahrukh Khan.

The International Astronomical Union has also approved this. The moon crater has been given the designation of Crater S R Khan. This crater will be a part of the Arago crater group, which is named for François Jean Dominique Arago, who was a French mathematician.

Spat between Kats and Dips

Imagine what will happen when Ranbir’s ‘best friend’ Katrina Kaif accidentally bumps into his ex Deepika Padukone. Recently at a shoot, both these girls exchanged cold stares even before Katrina walked out. Both of them were not in the mood of acknowledging each other. Apparently, Ranbir Kapoor became close friends with Katrina Kaif when he was dating Deepika.

On Wednesday, Dips was busy with a magazine photo shoot in the Mehboob Studio open area. An eyewitness who was watching all this says, “Deepika had come with Farhan Akhtar for her photo shoot. Somewhere around late afternoon, Deepika was giving her solo shots in the garden area of the studio. While Deepika was doing her last minute touch-up, there was pin drop silence and all eyes swiveled to the entrance. It was Katrina Kaif, who had accidentally walked in, thinking it was the venue where she was called for the shoot. She was dressed in a short white skirt and a pink tee, Katrnia walked in and froze for a second. Deepika, who was standing some distance away, saw her. Both had a few seconds of eye contact, and Katrina immediately took a U-turn and walked away.”

It was not surprising at all considering their history. A close source revealed, “Although Ranbir and Deepika are not seeing each other anymore, the latter still has issues with Katrina. It was the growing friendship between Katrina and Ranbir which marked an end to her relationship.” When asked Katrina and Deepika about this incident they were both unavailable for the comment.
