Recently, while hosting the screen awards function in Mumbai Shahid Kapur said to Shahrukh Khan that the title of his movie should have been ‘My surname is Khan’ and not ‘My Name Is Khan’ (pun intended). However, this just goes on to show the tremendous hype and expectations from the movie which is scheduled to hit the cinemas worldwide on 12th February 2010. This Bollywood extravaganza directed by Karan Johar witnesses the reuniting of some of the big names like Shahrukh Khan and Kajol after a space of 8 long years. Even Karan Johar is directing a film after Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna which was released way back in 2006. Between this hibernation as a director he went on producing movies, some good and some dubious. So the team has united and their creation will be out on Valentine Week this year.
Karan Johar who is well versed in making love stories (an ardent follower of Yash Chopra) is certainly releasing his film on Valentine week but is also experimenting for the first time with some global and serious issues of terrorism and its aftermath on innocent civilians. To advocate his genuine intentions he has made his favorite actor Shahrukh Khan as his mouthpiece in the name of Rizwan Khan as the protagonist of the movie. Even his selection of a Muslim hero as the central character is a well thought out move as it is the Muslims who have suffered the most since the twin towers collapsed.
The film is a love story at the heart as said by its director with the undercurrent of terrorism and its aftermath, the director and actor were quoted as saying it in the media. The film features Shahrukh as Rizwan who moves to San Francisco with his mother and finds love in Mandira (Kajol). The things change after terror strikes the country and the couple separates. Rizwan thus embarks on a notable journey across the US, inspiring people and initiating a revolution to bring back Mandira. Rizwan also suffers from Asperger syndrome making matters even worse for him. So, people find it quite difficult to understand him.
Priyanka Chopra, former “Miss World 2000” started her career as a model, soon after gaining the crown of Miss India World and Miss World 2000, she became the charm of the nation. This one night turned her dream into reality. Like most other winning models she also preferred to enter into the everlasting industry of Bollywood.
She made her first debut film in Tamil language called “Thamizhan” and since then she has acted in many Bollywood films. Among her filmy career Priyanka Chopra has signed many movies, among which there was one movie which was signed by her in her initial stage of career. Three year back, she signed a film called Gandhi, opposite Sunny Deol which actually was supposed to be her debut film. The project however got shelved and Priyanka was cast opposite Sunny in The Hero including Preety Zinta. That was the time when Sunny was a big star and Priyanka was just a newcomer.
But today, the situation is the other way round. After giving a number of hits, the latest being Bluffmaster and Krrish, Don, Aitraz and Salame-Isque Priyanka Chopra is now a famous Bollywood superstar. On the other hand Sunny Deol isn’t much in news since a long time. Therefore, to maintain this communication gap was tough for her. But she did so.
