Shahrukh Shahrukh everywhere

Love him or hate him but you just can’t ignore this Badshah of Bollywood. And if you thought King Khan is out of action from big screen and you are not going to see any more of him for some time, then think again ‘Picture abhi baaki hai dost!’. Advertisements, Game show, IPL and now in Paris. SRK knows how to make his presence felt. Audience does not have any choice except to bear him. SRK, don’t mind you are not bad but as the saying goes too much is too bad.

Pepsi, thanda thanda cool cool Navratna Oil, Videocon, Sunfeast Biscuits and what not. Small screen is bombarded with advertisements featuring Shahrukh. And if this was not enough, Friday, Satuday, Sunday is when you get to play with SRK for one whole hour. Must say King Khan is doing a great job as the host of this new game show ‘Kya Aap Paanchvi Pass Se Tez Hain?’ I am glued to my TV set during this show. What more, I religiously make phone calls and answer the questions which are for the audience sitting at home. I know, my money is going down the drain but that’s the magic of this show and that’s how SRK and Synergy Adlabs would make big bucks. Contrary to the expectations ’Kya Aap Paanchvi Pass Se Tez Hain?’ has managed a rating of 4.61 (TAM ratings) compared to Kaun Banega Crorepati 2 which opened with a TRP rating of 12.33 (TAM ratings).

Is IPL to blame for the poor rating? May be, may not be. One thing is sure SRK will need lots of money to keep his Kolkatta Knight Riders going in IPL. Irrespective of whether the team wins or not, SRK distributes gifts like laptops to his team members after every match. Sadly after winning the first two matches his team is losing its form. SRK is known to have that Midas touch. Seems like its not working in this case.

While Shahrukh in not busy with IPL he is in Paris to unveil his wax Statue at the Grevin Wax Museum. Guess what, Mahatma Gandhi is the only other Indian honoured with a statue in this museum. There’s no stopping King Khan!
