SRK-KAJOL: SIZZLING CHEMISTRY

SRK-Kajol is on the cover of the October issue of Vogue India. The My Name Is Khan couple were shot by Atul Kasbekar and interviewed by Karan Johar.

Here's an quote from what the B-Town's sizzling on-screen jodi have said...

Kajol on her chemistry with Shah Rukh: I deeply respect him. He is a great human being, he has taught me a lot as an actor and a person.

When I look back to the things he has said to me, he was right in a lot of ways.

SRK on his chemistry with Kajol: I think we are comfortable in our own skin. We have never tried to outdo each other.

Some things work well in pairs earrings, shoes, socks, pyjamas. I think we know that our individual scenes in a film are fantastic, but together we are unconquerable.

She's honest, earnest, innocent, very loud, very scattered and very beautiful all that I'm not. I'm boring, not natural, I'm a workaholic, and I don't love people totally like she does.

SALMAN: DR SHAH RUKH? HA, HA!

Forgetting and forgiving someone is somewhat that doesn’t come easily to Sallu.

With his list of enemies growing by the day – Shah Rukh Khan, John Abraham, Vivek Oberoi, Shahid Kapoor...Sallu never leaves a chance to make sarcastic remarks at them.

Recently, while flipping pages of a famous fortnightly he came across a picture of SRK posing with his doctorate degree, and Salman promptly remarked, “Arre iss doctor ke paas patients ko bhejo aur ilaaj karao na,” (Send all the patients to Dr Shah Rukh Khan and get them treated).

Everyone saw it on ‘Dus Ka Dum’ how he got back at Shahid Kapoor who had tried to exhibit his dancing skills (Shiamak Davar style) and teach Sallu (known for his original dancing skills) a step or two during a rock concert about three years back. While matching steps with Karisma and Kareena on his show, and after performing on one of Shahid’s famous numbers, he grinned, “Don’t you think I dance better than Shahid?”

Perhaps it is with people like Sanjay Dutt and Jackie Shroff that he gels more. They are of his kind, absolutely modest – another quality that he likes in people. And hence there was a lot of firework when these two seniors of his appeared on ‘Dus Ka Dum’ recently.

“The younger generation should learn from these ‘cool’ guys who are not pretentious. They are frank and openly talk about the mistakes they made in the past. They don't fake when they say, ‘this was our life – this is what we used to do - drugs, alcohol, women, today we have left all that and learnt from our mistakes and experiences. “I have a lot of respect for these guys,” said Salman.

SALMAN DISTRESSED BY MYJAAN’S DEATH

He had individually carried her to the hospital. Salman is overwhelmed as his pet dog Myjaan has died. Salman lost his other pet, Myson, previously this year.

Myjaan was admitted to an animal hospital in Parel in June.

According to sources close to Salman, Myjaan had been quite sick for some time. She was first admitted to the hospital in June. Salman had personally carried the pet to the hospital in a serious condition. She did got well a little but not so much. In fact, she was missing her partner Myson after his death.

On Tuesday (Aug 18) evening Salman attended the music release of “Wanted” and then rushed to shoot for “London Dreams”. While at the shoot, he was informed about Myjaan’s death.

Salman wrapped up the shoot and went to the hospital. He then went to his Panvel farmhouse and buried Myjaan there.

Myson is also buried at his farmhouse.

Salman is very upset with Myjaan’s death, which was clear on the sets of his TV show “10 Ka Dum” where the actor was seen in a rather low mood.

Salman now has two pet dogs, Myson (named after his first dog) and Mylove.

WANTED MORE VIOLENT THAN GHAJINI: SALMAN

Said Salman Khan on whether or not Wanted would be the next Ghajini.

The actor has high hopes for his next film directed by ace choreographer and south actor Prabhu Deva. “Ghajini became a fact because of Aamir Khan, his newly obtained 6 pack and the main focus at the end of the day was the love story. Wanted on the other hand is hardcore action, violence and amazing dance numbers” said Salman when quizzed whether Wanted would have the same box office success as Ghajini.

Salman Khan at his happy best poked fun at his dancing and the type of careful action scenes he went through for the film, saying, “I remember when Prabhu would teach me a step and I’d wonder, that can’t be so bad, but after watching myself on the video assist, I wish I’d retire then and there. I was going through a weary phase before Wanted and I couldn’t have been any more energised now.”

Out of the 200 days of shooting, Salman shot 8-10 action sequences for 150 days. Producer Boney Kapoor said, “The action in the film is incredible and you will be blown away by the type of series we have shot. There are no special effects and Salman has done all his action scenes himself.” The coy Prabhu Deva was all praises for his leading star, saying, “I don’t know anybody else who could have done the film other than Salman Bhai himself.”

SALMAN STILL GETS BEATEN UP BY MOM

Salma Khan exposes more secrets on TV show.

Salman Khan has often made headlines for getting into verbal and physical fights, but very few know that the 43-year-old Bollywood star still gets beaten up by his mother Salma.

"As a child, Salman was very naughty He used to get the most beating...still does," Salma told choreographer-turned-director Farah Khan on her soon-to-be-launched celebrity chat show "Tere Mere Beach Mein" going on air on STAR Plus on Sunday (Aug 23).

When Farah asked "Is it just a pat?", Salman, who was the first celebrity guest for the show, said: "Are you mad or what? It comes as such a phatak (tight slap)...I reel under its heavy blow and wonder where it came from! I tell her that how can you beat me mamma, I'm a grown up man now."

Some of the actor's best kept secrets were also unravelled on the show. For example, she open that she still stays up waiting for him at the window till he returns home. Salma said that all her kids tease her for this habit.

"They say that the building doesn't need a watchman with me keeping guard all night," she said.
