non-stop
doing things that we never expected from
him, he certainly has a way of surprising
us every day of the year. First we heard
that he was going to own a franchise in
the Indian Premiere League- he is now the
owner of the Kolkata Knights team and he
has once again proved that he is not just
an energetic actor but also a shrewd businessman.
Kolkata Knights is definitely the team that
is being seen and heard the most these days.
Have we heard much news about other teams
like the Chennai Superkings, Mumbai Indians
etc. in spite of them having cricketing
icons like Dhoni and Tendulkar respectively.
Instead Kolkata Knights is making the news,
thanks to SRK the showman. The ceremony
held just the other day when all the members
of the team were presented with the official
Knight Rider (warrior type) helmet was another
media eye catcher. Also the 'click' moment
when SRK stood atop his chair to match Ishanth
Sharma in height was the defining highlight
of the night. So that settles what SRK has
been doing with IPL and surely there's more
to come.
What else has he been up to? Well, the
second season of KBC is not on his to-do
list. Instead he is getting ready to bring
to us an all new game show. We still don't
know what it will be all about, but we can
say with confidence that it will be something
never seen before on our TV screens. Titled
'Kya Aap Paanchvi Pass Se Tez Hain' (literally
meaning 'were you sharp since your fifth
grade'), something aimed at challenging
the IQs of grown ups. Then, you also might
be wondering what has happened to his acting
career? Yes, we won't be seeing him in a
SRK starrer in the immediate future. But
you can catch him on the big screen to your
heart's content. Come April 11 and Krazzy
4 will release and there he will be seen
in a item song, which he did at the request
of the Roshans. The number, which is already
rocking TV screens across India will be
a great boost for the film, also considering
the fact that Hrithik Roshan will be dancing
to the same song in the end credits. He
will also be seen in a guest appearance
in Bhoothnath and only he knows what else
he has up his sleeve.
Besides these he is also planning a music
album which will feature him alongside some
top Bollywood actresses and this will also
contain the official anthem of the Kolkata
Knight Riders with Sourav Ganguly making
a special appearance. Now that wraps up
what we know about SRKs endeavors in early
2008. So, if anyone was thinking that he
was cooling his heels after the success
of Om Shanthi Om - you were wrong. And we
have not yet talked about the ads that he
has been doing for Pepsi.
About his next film - Karan Johar is currently
finalizing locations for the shoots of 'Khan'.
