Why did Shahrukh and Salman hug?


Film world is cheering for end of Shahrukh Khan and Salman Khan's fight. What can be good news other than this in Ramadan (correct spelling is Ramzan) month which is considered as most sacred month for muslim brothers?

It is known fact that both had fight on occassion of Katrina Kaif's birthday party which was held at Salman Khan's residence. At that time, Katrina Kaif was Salman's girlfriend. Fight was sparked from jokes which went to be personal. Shahrukh Khan joked about Salman Khan's ex girlfriend Aishwarya Rai which Salman Khan couldn't tolerate. After then, they didn't speak to each other.
They both have camps. So both started to draw persons from opposite camps. Salman Khan bonded with Akshay Kumar and Ajay Devgan against Shahrukh Khan. Shahrukh Khan brought Rohit Shetty (who is considered to be friend of Ajay Devgan) for 'Chennai Express'. Shahrukh also brought Katrina Kaif for his 'Jab Tak Hai Jaan' and performed kiss and other intimate scenes with her to envy Salman Khan.

Sharukh's film 'Jab Tak Hai Jaan' in which Katrina Kaif was lead heroine, was to be released with Ajay Devgan's 'Son Of Sardar'. Ajay Devgan complained to competition commission that Yashraj Films was pressuring on distributers to show only its film 'Jab Tak Hai Jaan'. So Ajay Devgan roped Salman Khan for cameo.Salman Khan happily did it. Not even that, in promo, his dialogue was symbolically challenging Shahrukh Khan. It was like this : Pathan ke yaar se kabhi panga mat lena.

Well, this is now past matter. Both have hugged each other. It is said that compromise is not sudden. It was planned. Both were willing to have friendship from long time. In March, 2013, it was rumour that Shahrukh Khan went to Salman's residence. SRK's car was spotted in front of Salman's residence at 8.30 pm 31st March, 2013 night.

It means Shahrukh Khan was willing to be friend with Salman again. And he took initiative. Why did Shahrukh Khan do this? He is said to be very arrogant. He has insulted many persons, although by his cheap humour. So he can not be believed to take initiative, but he did. why? Let's check.

Shahrukh was left alone after fight with Salman Khan. Farah Khan left him and signed Akshay Kumar in her film as director. Karan Johar did not part away with Shahrukh but made no film after rift with Salman. Arjun Rampal also went away from Shahrukh Khan due to his arrogant nature. It is known fact that those who got Salman angry are left alone, Salman camp is so powerful. e.g. Vivek Oberoi. After rift with Salman Khan (famous 42 calls press conference) Vivek stopped getting A grade banner films. He apolosied publicly to Salman Khan, but Salman did not forgive it. Shahrukh also had to face similar siquences. On one side, Shahrukh's films were getting flop. Specially his Ra.one became material for joke. Shahrukh who is infamous for joking on other persons, could not tolerate joke upon himself for Ra.one and slapped Shirish Kunder. Sharukh also indulged in fight with security guard at Vankhede stadium. These all incidence made Shahrukh Khan realise that he need to compromise with Salman Khan.

But the question is why Salman Khan forgave Shahrukh while he is not known for forgiving persons easily. Infact Salman Khan also did not forgive Shahrukh easily. As said above, Shahrukh initiated peace process (!) in March,2013 and he succeded in July, 2013. Salman Khan knew that Shahrukh Khan had good political relations with central leadership of congress. This year, congress and MNS favoured to lift ban on Shahrukh from entering Vankhede Stadium. Salman was getting in trouble in Hit and Run case. May be he needed Shahrukh Khan to influence in the case.

But it was Baba Siddiqui, congress MLA in Maharashtra, who made Shahrukh and Salman Khan hug each other in his iftaar party. Let's see this is jenuine compromise or just for sake of mutual need.

Kahan hai wo log : In search of serial Buniyaad actors!


News is that Buniyaad serial will be retelecasted after gap of 27 years. It was super duper hit serial and was much enjoyable than Hum Log. Two serials can not be compared as both had different background, but Hum Log was giving disappointment as Baseshar Ram was alcoholic, and nothing for good, Bhagwanti was always suffering. Badki was always serious.

While in Buniyaad, Haweli Ram and Lajoji affair was pleasant to watch for. Mazhar Khan and Kanwaljit Singh also played enjoyable role. So was Veeravali.

Vinod Nagpal, Rajesh Puri, Abhinav Chaturvedi, Kamiya Malhotra acted in both milestone serials. Both serials were written by Manohar Shyam Joshi. He also wrote Kakaji Kahin, a political satire.

Ding Dong O Baby Sing A Song


When Subhash Ghai's 'Hero' film was released in 80s, its song 'Ding dong o baby sing a song' became hit overnight. It is still popular. Song has very catchy and easy to remember wordings. It was sung by Manhar Udhas and Anuradha Paudwal.



This 'Ding Dong Ding" phrase was used in intial lines of 'Ek Do Teen' song of movie 'Tezaab'. Do you remember? "Ding dong ding ding dong ding dong ding dang ding dong dong ding dong". Then, starts 'Ek Do Teen'. In both - female and male version of this song "Ding Dong Ding" is used.

Now what is common between "Ding dong o baby sing song" and "Ek do teen"? No. Singers are different. Lyricists (Anand Baxi and Javed Akhtar) are also different. Directors (Subhash Ghai and N. Chandra) are also different. Only thing is common is its music directors- Laxmikant-Pyarelal.

Let's go more in flash back. You must have heard 'Hai hai ye majboori'. (Who hasn't?) It is one of best 'rain song'. What beautiful wordings!

Teri do takiyaree naukri mein mera lakhon ka sawan jaye

And gorgeous Zeenat Aman! She looks so beautiful in wet red saree. And helpless Manoj Kumar! He can't enjoy company of beautiful lover and rain as he has to go for job interview.


But my point was to draw your attention towards 'Ding dong ding dong' coming in before second and last 'antara' of the song. In this film, music directors were also Laxmikant-Pyarelal. So, it may be assumed that Laxmikant-Pyarelal liked wordings "Ding Dong" very much and hence they would make them insert in their songs. But L-P were not first to use these words!

As per my knowledge, "Ding dong" phrase was first used in film 'Grihasthi'. Song had following wordings:

ding dong ding dong ding lala
ho koi dil ko sambalo mera dil chala
ding dong ding dong ding lala
ho koi dil ko sambalo mera dil chala
gun gun bole kano me ras gole
sang sang dhole koi banwara
ding dong ding dong ding lala
koi dil ko sambalo mera dil chala
ding dong ding dong ding lala
ho koi dil ko sambalo mera dil chala
gun gun bole kano me ras gole
sang sang dhole koi banwara
ding dong ding dong ding lala

chori chori bagiya me aane laga vo
bholi vhali kali mai to batiyo me aa gayi
mera na raha ye dil mera
ding dong ding dong ding lala
ho koi dil ko sambalo mera dil chala
ding dong ding dong ding lala
ho koi dil ko sambalo mera dil chala
gun gun bole kano me ras gole
sang sang dhole koi banwara
ding dong ding dong ding lala

Song was sung by Geeta Dutt. Music was composed by Ravi. And lyricist was Shakeel Badayuni. Will you not ask who acted in this film? You should. Ashok Kumar, Manoj Kumar and Rajashree were main stars of this film. Film was released in year 1963. Now you can have a common thing between Grihasthi and Roti Kapda Aur Makan. Both have Manoj Kumar as common factor. So it can be Manoj Kumar who brought "Ding dong" phrase in song

Here is the video of the Ding dong ding dong lala:

Indian original reality show : Naad Bhed!


It's really a breaking news. And it can be done only by Door Darshan (DD). We may criticize Door Darshan as government mouth organ, but it is true that Indian culture is preserved on DD and no private channels.

While most of private channels have either moved away from Indian culture (Iss jungle se mujhe bachao, Rakhi Ka Insaaf, Sach Ka Saamna, Bigg Boss) or have presented Indian culture in wrong way. Infact, most of reality shows are either Indian version of foreign shows .(In most of serials, big family, Saas-Bahu fight, conspiracy against relatives, extra marrtal affairs are shown.). In children based reality shows also, children are made to wear short dresses, they are asked about girlfriend/boyfriend, they are given/asked for flying kiss or they are made to dance/sing on vulgar/double meaning songs.

Has any channel dared to telecase reality show based on indian classical dance/music? Even, lifestyle based channel or food based channel are also mostly showing continental life style/food items. It is nothing to showcase world culture, but it should be limited to some extent.

These channels show titles of serial in Roman/English script. However, it should be noted that now SAB tv has started to show titles, recap, coming soon etc...in Hindi language.

Good news coming from Door Darshan that it will soon telecase a reality show based on Indian classical music. It's name is Naad Bhed (नाद भेद). It will be a first show of this kind. It will be based on Indian classical music. Well known organisation working for promotion of Indian classical music SPIC MACAY is also involved in this show. (I have listened and enjoyed a lot of classical music programmes organised by SPIC MACAY in Bhavnagar.)

So get ready for original reality show.

Gadha prasad and Chandramukhi Chautala are back!


Children's favourite character Gadha prasad is back after break. He fell sick and was on sick leave. However he got speedy recovery and he thanks for that to Lord Hanuman. Very few know that Gadhaprasad aka Jeetu Shivhare is a devout Hanuman bhakt in real life! Jeetu visits regularly Lapataganj's set and has been seen offering his prayers to the So, it became quite natural for him to first visit the Hanuman idol to seek blessings of lord before starting to shoot for the show.Not only Jeetu Shihare, but Lapataganj's Biji Pandey (Abbas Khan) is also devout follower of the lord Hanuman.Jeetu said it is Hanumanjee's blessings due to which he could recover fast.

Another popular character Chandramukhi Chautala is also back on small screen. It is known fact that Kavita Kaushik who played Chandramukhi in F.I.R. had taken break to play Maina in 'Tota weds Maina'. Chitrakshi Rawat as Jwalamukhi Chautala, daughter of Chandramukhi entered in serial F.I.R. But she could not gain popularity. May be because she got only brief period. Kavita Kaushik has her own style. Chitrakshi could not match with her. Now it has to be seen weather another popular characters Gulgule (played by Kiku Sharda) and Roshan Singh Sodhi- Roshan (Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chasmah) will be back or not.

Size plus actresses : who cares!

Actress Huma Qureshi who is three film old, and has managed to garner equal praise and criticism for her curves in the size-zero-obsessed industry, prefers to be her pretty self rather than falling for the fad.

Huma was loved for her voluptuous figure and earthy style in her first movie `Gangs of Wasseypur`. But she was criticised by some quarters for her weight issues.

"In `Gangs of Wasseypur` I was the pretty girl, it was glamorous role. In `Ek Thi Daayan` I was the heroine. I have always been the pretty girl. I think there are people who have a craze about size zero but today we do have heroines who are curvier," Huma said in an interview here.

"Either you think of it (weight) as a problem or as an added advantage. I would like to be known for my personality rather than size zero, I am an actress. I don`t want to be a hanger," she said.

Huma feels there are so many actresses today who are not size zero but still have a huge fan following. However, if in the near future a role demands for her to transform herself, she is game for it.

Huma is right. Take an example of Sonakshi Sinha. Sonakshi Sinha has decided
to let all that is said on the subject of her weight fall on deaf ears. The actress said, "I have become immune to whatever is said and continue to be said about my weight. Actually I have become bored of even hearing about it. I don't give people a chance to say anything about my acting and dancing skills, so they have to find something to talk about. So they have to find a subject to criticise me about which continues being about my weight."

Vidya Balan is also not and was not size zero. Infact, for 'Dirty Picture', she gained 12 kilos as role of Silk Smitha demanded fat actress. How did she put on weight? 

The Dirty Picture star Vidya Balan had then said, "For the first time in my career, my director (Milan Luthria) and producer (Ekta Kapoor) told me to put on weight. But I don't want to. With an Indian face and an Indian body structure, I will manage it. If I increase it for this film, then I will also have to reduce it afterwards." But soon enough, the actress known for her capacity to get into the skin of every character she portrays, had made peace with herself and gained 12 kilos to become Silk. However, it seems that after film and marriage Vidya Balan had shedded extra weight.

Shilpa Shetty, who had released yog dvd once said,''Contrary to popular perception in the media, achieving 'size zero' is not healthy. In fact, for someone being called 'size zero' is not a complement. So, it is wrong on the part of the media to call someone 'size zero'".

Kareena Kapoor with size zero
Size zero trend in bollywood in recent times was
Kareena Kapoor after weight gain
started by starlet Kareena Kapoor. Kareena Kapoor shocked the conservative Indian public by daringly appearing in a bikini in the film 'Tashan'. The 29-year-old actress lost significant weight for the role and reportedly collapsed on the set. But at time of 'Three idiots' and 'Ra One' Kareena had gained weight again. (Re-view 'Chhamak Chhallo' song again!)



Madhuri Dixit's beautiful Jhalak


Madhuri Dixit. Indian name of Venus. She appears as judge of 'Jhalak Dikhala Ja' since two or three seasons. Now she has shifted to India permanently. She is also active now on facebook and twitter and updating status regularly and posting pictures too.





According to those status, pictures and the way she looks in 'Jhalak Dikhla Ja', the way she seems to be enjoying her new job, it is obvious that she is very much happy. Reason is simple: Now she is icon for aspiring so many wanna be actresses. She had been number one in bollywood. Her charm is still in people of  India. She is getting commercials, new film offers. She is still remembered for her 'Ek do teen', 'Hum ko aaj kal hai intezaar' or 'Dola re dola' dance numbers. Her smile is beautiful and attractive. The way she says 'Perfect' in 'Jhalak Dikhla Ja' is awesome. After one dance is complete and music still going on, Madhuri is seen dancing with that music sitting in her judge chair. She is natural dancer. In last episode when Manish Kaul asked to perform on 'Hum ko aaj kal hai intezaar' he came on table in front of Madhuri. At that time, Madhuri also expressed her gestures through eyes, neck and head. It was spontaneous.

Now she will be seen in 'Dedh Ishqiya'. Let's wish her best for her second innings in bollywood.

Sudhakar Bokade : Producer Saajan ke




Courtesy : everydaypopcorn.com

Saajan made him famous as producer, but he was infamous for his underworld connection. His name is Sudhakar Bokade, who passed away today due to a heart attack in Mumbai on July 8, family sources said. He was 57. 

He is survived by daughters Divya and Kiran and son Krishna. 

His last rites were performed at Oshiwara crematorium, with family and close friends.

Bokade was admitted to the Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital in Andheri, a western suburb of Mumbai, two days ago due to breathing problems. He passed away last night after a heart attack, his son Krishna informed. 

Krishna and his father were visiting Malaysia. On the journey back, Bokade complained of difficulty in breathing following which he was hospitalised.
A scene from film Saajan


Bokade has produced films like Salman Khan-Madhuri Dixit-Sanjay Dutt-starrer Saajan, Nana Patekar's Prahaar, Saif Ali Khan's Sanam Teri Kasam, Rahul Roy's Sapne Saajan ke and Ajay Devgn's Dhanwaan among others. His Prahaar saw actor Nana Patekar wearing director's cap, while Sapne Saajan ke saw Jackie Shroff's secretary Mukul Agarwal debuting as play back singer (He sang 'Mere pyar mein sach sach kaho tumne kya kiya, kabhie bhula kabhie yaad kiya').


It is said in bollywood circles that Sudhakar Bokade was once a loader in Air-India. There he made relations with Dawood Ibrahim. He got his backing and started producing films. He famously forced film star Govinda to start shooting for the multi-million Izzatdaar at gunpoint. The police claimed Bokade has strong mafia links, a charge he denied.

He launched Kalinga with much fanfare by Sudhakar Bokade who was a leading producer at that time, riding high on the success of movies like Izzatdar, Saajan, etc. The movie created headlines because the legendary Dilip Kumar was supposed to direct it. The movie was many years in the making and could not be finished and shelved.


During the mid-1990s Sudhakar Bokade,  who had earlier worked with Rahul Roy in Sapne Sajan Ke, decided to produce Mera Juta Hai Japani. Roy was due to make his directorial debut with the movie, for which Sanjay Dutt and Jackie Shroff were signed. However, Bokade could not raise the money to complete the film.

Namesake confusion : Who is Rishi Kapoor's son, Ranbir or Ranveer?




If you 'google' 'Jyoti Basu', it is most likely you end up searching for 'Bipasha Basu'! It is becasue same surname. It is known fact that google is just a programme and it has no mind. It will count only how many users find what.
There are many namesakes, specially in Bollywood. While there is only one Bachchan, but there are two Amitabh. One is Amitabh Bachchan, aka Big B. He doesn't need any more introduction. Other one is Amitabh Dayal. Don't you know him? Well, he had done 'Kagar' film in which he played super cop and encounter specialist.

If you search for Hindi film hero who is
known for his dialogues and style Raj Kumar, you will most likely to get results for Kannada movie hero Raj Kumar. It can be because of more searches for Kannada star.
Similar case is with bollywood Diva who also used to be super actress of south- Sridevi. But now as this beautiful actress is getting old, more search results come in favour of Sridevi Vijaykumar who is also south indian actress.




This is case with google. Now a days 'Sunny' name is more associated with 'Leone' rather than 'Deol' or 'Gavaskar'! Poonam name is getting associated more and more with 'Pandey' and 'Jhavar' rather than 'Dhillon' or 'Mahajan'. Many people mixes identity of Reema sen with Raima Sen and Riya Sen. While Raima and Riya are sisters and daughter of yesteryear sex bomb Moon Moon Sen, Reema Sen is actress of 'Malamaal Weekly'. It is heard that to distinguish herself from two sen sisters, Reema changes her name spelling from 'Reema' to 'Reemma' Sen.


There is also one more actress whose name starts with 'R' letter and has 'Sen' surname. She is Rimi Sen. She has acted in hit films like 'Hungama', 'Baghban', 'Dhoom' and 'Phir Hera Pheri'.
Do you know what is correct name of Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Kapoor? May be learned readers like you know, but many don't! They got confused between Ranbir Kapoor and Ranveer Singh! Yes, correct name is Ranbir Kapoor while Ranveer Singh is lead actor of films like 'Band Baaja Baarat', 'Ladies Vs Ricky Bahal' and 'Lootera'.
I had been witness of a funny incident. I was teenager and those days we had only Door Darshan (DD). We used to see television with family and neighbours. We were watching 'Chitrahaar'. Song of Asha Parekh was being aired. My aunty was not having much knowledge. She said with innocence which became joke. She told, "This Asha Parekh was Asha Bhosle but after marriage she became Asha Parekh."

This is not case only with actors. Producer and director also face problem of difficulty. There are two directors with same name. Both are very much talented. One is Anurag Basu who made film like 'Murder', 'Gangster' and 'Life in a metro'. (Who recalled name 'Kites'?) Anurag Basu fought with cancer successfully. Another one is Anurag Kashyap. He has 'Gangs of Wasseypur', 'No smoking', 'Dev D' and 'Gulal' in his side.
Not only names create confusion, but personality or type of films can also create confusion. Many people confuse between Mira Nair and Deepa Mehta as both female directors make films on women sexuality. I don't know why but some people also confuse between Zeenat Aman and Parveen Babi. May be because they both were highly bold in their contemporary era.

Shahrukh's third child, publicity stants and fights


First it was breaking news on around 14th June that Shahrukh Khan to have baby through surrogacy. It is known fact that Shahrukh Khan is 47 years old. His wife Gauri Khan is said to be 42 years old. So, news was that Shahrukh Khan will have child.

So suddenly controversy started that how come Shahrukh Khan knew that he will have male child only? Shahrukh Khan was also reportedly questioned by the Indian Radiological and Imaging Association (IRIA) as to how the actor came to know about the unborn child's sex when sex determination is illegal in India.

Fatwa was also issued against Shahrukh Khan. 'Markazi Darul Ifta Dargah Al Hazrat' issued a Fatwa against Shah Rukh Khan blaming Shahrukh for hiring a surrogate mother, they make it clear that this is a violation of Sharia laws.

Now yesterday news came that baby boy was already born on 27th May. As per PTI report, Mumbai Municipality Corporation (BMC) additional municipal commissioner Manisha Mhaiskar told, "Yes, we have received the birth report of Shah Rukh and Gauri Khan's baby boy,". As per details in the birth report, the baby boy was born on May 27 to parents listed as Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Shah Rukh Khan at the Masrani Hospital for Women in suburban Andheri.

The couple already has son Aryan and daughter Suhana.

The child was born at 34 weeks of pregnancy and weighed 1.5 kg at birth, BMC sources said quoting report received from Masrani Nursing Home.

It is mandatory for nursing homes and hospitals to register every birth in the city. The civic body issues birth certificates to parents on the basis of that report.

So, if child was born on 27th May, why scoop was planted that Shahrukh Khan and Gauri Khan will have to  baby through surrogacy and deliberately controversy raised that Shahrukh Khan might have done illegal sex determination test.

Was it because Shahrukh's new film "Chennai Express" to be released in short time? Was it cheap publicity stunt? If you recall, before Shahrukh Khan's "My Name is Khan" released, Shahrukh raised controversy that he was stopped at US airport because he told, "My name is Khan". Everybody knows that after 11 september, 2001, US has become highly alert and it is procedure at airport and even our erstwhile defense minister George Fernandes and former president APJ Abdul Kalam also had to pass through this strict procedure. So why did he raise controversy?

Are these mere coincidences that every time when Shahrukh Khan's films scheduled to be released, he becomes controversial issues? Does he do these publicity stunts because his films are getting flops one by one and his arch rival Salman Khan and Aamir Khan are delivering super hit films?



Many a times we have seen at Filmfare or other awards, Shaurukh Khan had joked other film actors in insulting way. Neil Nitin Mukesh had publicly said "Shut UP" to Shahrukh Khan. In KBC, one lady who was mother or other relative of participant refused to be hugged by Shahrukh Khan. But Shahrukh doesn't like to be joked upon himself.


When Shirish Kunder, director and husband of Shahrukh's great friend Farah Khan joked or criticised about Shahrukh Khan's super flop film "Ra One", Shahrukh couldn't tolerate it and reportedly slapped Shirish Kunder.


Before this, on birthday of Katrina Kaif, who at that time happened to be girl friend of Salman Khan, Shahrukh joked about Salman's ex lover Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. It is known fact at that time Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was wife of Abhishek Bachchan and family member of Amitabh Bachchan's family. So why should he joke about Aishwarya? Salman Khan joked about Shahrukh Khan's flop tv show "Kya Aap Panchvi Paas Se Tez Hai?" And Shahrukh Khan didn't tolerate this.

Shahrukh Khan was treated as Salman Khan's family member. When he was nothing in film industry Salman Khan supported him. But after becoming superstar Shahrukh Khan changed. He had made a group of friends who used to be director, dance director, music director. And Shahrukh insulted and joked other rivals through his friends also. But one has to pay for arrogance. One by one all friend started leaving Shahrukh. Farah Khan made film by taking Akshay Kumar as hero. Karan Johar also left Shahrukh Khan. As per Hindustan Times's report, Shah Rukh Khan has a history of making friends only to turn them into enemies. After Farah Khan, Arjun Rampal and Hrithik Roshan have apparently turned cold towards the megastar. The actors gave a royal ignore to him at Dabboo Ratnani's calendar launch bash. Shahrukh's films also started getting flop.




Once upon a time Shahrukh created cold war with Amitabh Bachchan whom he was mimicking in his initial stage of career. Shahrukh wanted to do what Amitabh had done. So he got made 'Don'. He gathered actors and actresses in his 'Om Shanti Om'. It was similar to Amitabh's 'Naseeb' in which stars gathered in a song. In 'Om Shanti Om' Shahrukh mocked senior actor Manoj Kumar. In same film, Shahrukh and director Farah  Khan got Pyarelal (of great music director Laxmikant-Pyarelal) for arranging one song 'Dhoom Tana' for getting music of 70s, but on album they didn't acknowledge Pyarelal.



Shahrukh Khan had also fighted with security guard of Wankhede stadium, Mumbai. Khan, co-owner of Indian Premier League (IPL) team Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), had allegedly misbehaved with security personnel and MCA officials last year.

As per media reports, owner of Kolkata Knight Riders, Shahrukh Khan lost his cool after his teams won against the Mumbai Indians on and abused the officials after he was denied entry in the playing area of the Wankhede Stadium.The Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) officials had lodged a police complaint against Shah Rukh Khan for his alleged misbehaviour and decided to ban him for life from entering the Wankhede Stadium premises.

MCA Treasurer Ravi Savant was quoted as saying,”He (Khan) misbehaved and abused the MCA security personnel as well as MCA officials, including our president Vilasrao Deshmukh, after the IPL match (between KKR and Mumbai Indians). “We have decided to ban him for life from entering the stadium in future,” adding “SRK was dead drunk, our security tried to stop him but he pushed him and abused in such filthy language that I cannot use it here." After this incident, Shahrukh Khan was banned from entering in Wankhede stadium for five years.



Last year there were two films scheduled to be released on Diwali - Jab Tak Hai Jaan and Son Of Sardar. Now Jab Tak Hai Jaan was of Shahrukh Khan and Katrina Kaif, while SOS was of Ajay Devgan. It is known fact that Ajay Devgan has not either good or bad term with Shahrukh Khan. But Ajay Devgan had to complain against Yash Raj Films.

As per media reports, ADF (Ajay Devgan Films) had accused YRF of manipulating exhibitors and distributors to release their film in more theatres than SOS. It had filed a complaint with the Competition Commission of India.

"The case of ADF is that a producers/distributor/exhibitor cannot be allowed to enter into a tie-in arrangement which adversely affects competition. YRF has entered into a tie-in arrangement with the exhibitors in a manner that it has made it compulsory for the exhibitors to exhibit the untitled movie of YRF on Diwali day and two weeks thereafter with all four shows," said an official statement from the lawyers of ADF.



This year history is repeated. Shahrukh Khan's Chennai Express was scheduled to be released on Eid (8 August, 2013). On the same date, Akshay Kumar's Once Upon A Time In Mumbai-2 was to be released. But Shahrukh Khan influenced producer and yester year actor Jeetendra and Ekta Kapoor to postpone release of 'Once Upon A Time In Mumbai-2'.

So, Mr. Shahrukh Khan, be a good boy. Respect all other colleagues and stars. You will also get a hit film again. You will not need to indulge in cheap publicity stunts and fights due to flop films.
