This guy understands how to crack jokes and take jokes.
“It must have been said with a smile or in jest. and there are no smiley faces in your reports. One gives it that leeway thinking that it must have been said in different spirit.”
He knows how media works – nicely put.
Alas, his fans don’t have even iota of his understanding and have theories and psychoanalysis on how Aamir is sulking; is egoistic and every second of his life thinking of SRK’s failure.
Two of Hindi Film industry’s greatest stars of the present times, Shahrukh Khan and Aamir Khan, have been more in the news for all the bad and sad reasons! However, the two showed unity and maturity when they landed up together on the same dias and spoke at length about their thoughts on the ongoing multiplex issue. Naturally both being producers shared the same thoughts and the press had a field day hanging on to every word. It was nothing short of media frenzy as all the satellite channels and the print media tried their level best to outdo each other with their coverage of the coming together of the two super stars!
However, Shah Rukh Khan does not see this re-union as a patch up, because according to the level headed Khan, when there was no break up in the first place, so how could there have been a patch up? Logical one must say!
SRK also reveals that they may be having a few small problems, little ups and downs, but these minor things tend to get resolved at a personal level and they do not need a media platform to sort it out. He also elaborated that the two exchanged SMSes, chatted and spoke to each other about the multiplex issue. On a lighter note, SRK (with his deadly sense of humour!) added that if he were to patch up more with Aamir, they would end up getting married!
Right said SRK. But seeing the media frenzy that the two created, here’s hoping for the impossible, the coming together of Shah Rukh Khan and Aamir Khan in a project, directed hopefully by Yash Chopra. Imagine the records that the movie might go on to break!
Q. What is the budget for My Name Is Khan and 3 Idiots?
A. My Name Is Khan is 45 crore and 3 Idiots is 35 crore not including release costs.

Q. Are there any major films slated for release in May and June?
A. Kal Kissne Dekha is slated for 29th May while Love Aaj Kal is slated for 26th June. But this does not mean they will release on these dates as no one knows when this ban on new releases will end.

Q. Is Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi the highest grosser ever for Yashraj Films and Shahrukh Khan as has been advertised?
A. The gross of Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi is similar to Dhoom 2 and Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge. The nett gross business is highest ever for YRF and Shahrukh Khan films while distributor share is lower than both Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge and Dhoom 2. It is highest grosser for YRF and SRK in terms of nett business.
