Along with my morning Coffee comes life as it may. Surfing around as usual, a line forced its bullets to my eyes "But unfortunately you chose surrender to evil SRK. You bowed to hate and hate won" I almost chocked on my last Coffee sip that at that moment never tasted more bitter. What nonsense is this! King Khan doesn't surrender to anyone! nor bow for that matter, He is The King and will forever remain so. a title that was bestowed upon him by his loving fans and perhaps only them has the right to change that which will never happen because unlike you former Canadian minister of health, we know him well.
Of Course we all know the origin of this whole thing after the shameful Uri Attacks that left the Indian heart as well as ours bleeding and it is a government decision to ban Pakistani actors from working in Bollywood movies or even to cross the border, anyone who opposes that will be in legal troubles. Not you or anyone would put his reputation and business going down that lane. Not a question of kingship here,but of wisdom. Millions are invested in Bollywood films, not only profits but thousands of families of workers and crew members depending on these two giant production houses you mentioned be it Dharma or Red Chillies entertainment. what did you want them to do? it would've been more apt in my point of view if you dedicated your hot pen and full pride to the government officials and ask them to retrieve this ban and exclude Art from politics. keep it a free bird as it is the case in Canada where you live or the countries you can talk about.
King Khan did not succumb to hate or evil, you will never fit in his shoes, so don't try to imagine how it feels like. In fact He did the most Heroic and noble act ever that you probably won't have the guts to do had you been given the chance.
SRK doesn't interfere in the choice of his cast in any film. It is solely Director choice according to the story so it was not his choice. Mahira Khan is a great actress and her being Pakistani has nothing to do with that! just like your being a Health minister in a Canadian government that has nothing to do with you being Indian. Art is Her only Passport the way it should be. And king Khan trying to patch up some old cracks in this sad world in his own little way! tried to bring a once one thread closer. but you people don't get it! you don't get him! His own people! it's really painful. He knows it's thorny yet he chosen to bleed for a better future.
It was a moment of absolute power. of courage and bravery! the desire to save millions be it workers or the smiles of people who will enjoy this work. and yes He transforms from a king to a beggar for those smiles, for that priceless love of billions, He is the beggar of seeking love only and its mercy.
King Khan is the voice of truth. The One Proud Indian who brings India to the universal spotlight everyday just as he wakes up and breathes this air. He is the Idol of billions youngsters and the beloved of all adults and the heartbeat of us women all over the world. if love to have a face it would be his and if kindness to speak it would've been in his voice. not mentioning all his charities or achievements. you can google that, but as for a fan lover from across the globe, Shah Rukh Khan saved my life and made me better person today. if that is not his dignity, then i don't know what is. so He wins, Mr. former minister. He wins our hearts and unconditional love for what he did, does and will be doing for years to come. Oh yes, many Indians would have been ready to stand shoulder to shoulder with Him in the ensuing fight, but why risk it? suppose those many Indians had some job appointments and family commitments and couldn't show up to stand shoulder to shoulder in the ensuing fight, that will leave him all alone, by himself, facing the forces of darkness and pseudo patriots dictating him what to say or do to be a good citizen, He whose father died as the youngest freedom fighter of this country! He would've been left bare to the storm and as usual you would write a clapping letter while seated on your air-conditionned office somewhere in Democratic Canada to your earned his title in your eyes now King Khan while his posters being burnt and film losing to hate goons! like it happened before, a whole Deja vu for me..there,
Take one: Date: 12 February 2010. Mode: Flashback "My Name is Khan" release. SRK in New York ringing the NASDAQ bill and serenading the live audience with his wet eyes singing "Tere Naina" as his daughter's favorite tune of the movie. while back home in Mumbai, Maharshtra specifically his film was being boycotted, posters burnt and audience hit before cinema halls over a controversy after a line he said in a cricket interview that had nothing to do with the years of hard work and thousands of people involved in the making of this magnificent labor of love that was warmly received all over the globe and made its way to be one of of his highest grossing films overseas. He got hurt badly and so did we. His worldwide fans who felt so helpless before the destructive power of hate. back then we were all new to the word, still are i think, so we stood by him and he stood tall. King Khan doesn't bow nor bend. He sways in the tune of our love only. and the times passed, left a wound and a scar yes, but that's how real men are made of. till date i still can't forget those night tweets, how sad he was and how heart wrenching it became for all of us his lovers. not even sure how and why it happened in the first place though. His name is Khan and He is a Loverist!
Take two: Date: 23 December 2015 Mode: Still Flashback "Dilwale" release after another totally hogwash controversy lead by a misquoted statement that was totally misunderstood and extremely blown out of proportion. that too on his birthday! boycotting calls circulated everywhere on social media, hate showed its ugly face and some cinemas were threatened to be burned if they run the film, audience got beaten and souls were endangered! Sad SRK surfing the world for the promotion of his film. regardless of anything he does what he has to do with all dignity and grace. we bleed with him. in our birdy talks and literal loud screams. we support our idol and life inspiration but still he is alone out there! facing the Hurricane of bully and wearing nothing but his HEART. keeping in his mind the army of love that depends on him for a living, the workers and crew. His fans and well wishers everywhere who awaits his cinematic risings like the full moon in their darkest nights. why always HIM? is it because he is so successful? independent, made it on his own outsider who had nothing on but his heart, guts and lots of sadness to overcome? he owes nothing to nobody, He deserves where he is right now, on top. though he is in real the most grateful, humble and down to earth person ever but someone has to say it for him. So we Fans do. It left him heart broken and deeply hurt again, he kept his head high and his dimples flashed in every camera encounter but the wound reopened and another scar got born.
Take three: Date: 9 December 2016 Mode: Flash-forward On Monday, Shah Rukh Khan paid the MNS chief Raj Thackeray a visit to assure him that the leading lady of Raees from Pakistan won’t be coming to India to promote the film. After a tremendous thrilling response to his upcoming movie "Raees" Shah Rukh Khan the actor was shifting residence to cloud n-9. so many praises to his ecstatic performance and the glimpse of the most awaited venture is reassuring of a full ride of excellence and artistic class. so much effort was put in the movie, powerful script and slick action topped by the epic performance of King Khan who is good when is good but when bad is way better. but Shah Rukh Khan the businessman had to make sure his wound won't reopen and he won't be getting another scar for the new year so he did what he had to do to protect himself, his long years of dedication be it in this film or his honorable legacy of 25 years of love, blood and sweat. but the- moral police goons sitting before their screens fighting the Don Qixhote windmills of righteous decisions of others they know absolutely nothing about -didn't like it! and started preaching as usual, king khan bowed to hate and bla bla bla..and since i am already a High BP patient, it made me sick to my stomach! i mean who the hell were there in any of the previous takes Shah Rukh kad to go through all alone without showing how painful it was just to keep people happy! who of those screen bullies will come forward to pay the losses if protests of hate burst by the Shiv Sena or any other political party damaging all these years of heart work Shah Rukh and his co producers and Raees crew put in the film? He was working non stop for months with a broken patella putting his health on the line not listening to his doctors, living on pain killers and relief patchesjust to finish the film in time and not cause any extra troubles for the makers including his own company. where were you those who patronize? oh yes bingo! bingoo! sitting on your big fat asses chewing your pathetic old bitter anti-national gums and waiting for anything he does to start an unnecessary fire. It became a cliche, a disgusting and most ridiculous one at the matter of fact. India is bigger then that.we love India because of Shah Rukh Khan. He through his films and personality introduced us, his foreign fans to a beautiful, tolerant, loving and most secular India that i as many of us too wished in my heart in my every coming life (if i still have any) that i would be Indian just to feel him more in his own skin. Shah Rukh Khan is not only a National asset or Indian Pride He is a universal passion. An ambassador of love and humanity, we claim him in our hearts but we know that His heart is an Indiawaala.
Dear Shah Rukh, King Khan, you earned this title and deserve it. You did the right thing. you offered a hand of love and peace. set an example of selflessness and care of others that should be taught. we are so proud of you king Khan!You carry a huge responsibility upon your shoulders, a burden of expectations. we understand and much appreciate all you do to entertain us in these horrid days where smiles are becoming too precious everywhere around. There is nothing wrong in doing what you have to do to protect your loved ones, "Raees is your unborn baby, on his way to the world you need to ensure him a safe delivery and a smooth welcome. and we your fans and lovers from all over the world stand by you, support and love you always. nothing and no one can touch our love. You take care of yourself and believe in us. we will make sure your baby is most loved. don't ever be sad king, we are around you and at your back, you can count on us. your knightwriters will all be Raees for Raees ki peaceful release. After all, it's "The universe ki hawa mein Shah rukh Khan hai, iss hawa ko kaise rokoge? " Sincerely, your loving Fans.
With you in this, that and all. You have my heart, love and full support. You do what you see right. I believe in you #Raees@iamsrkpic.twitter.com/C4EgrE4daD
"A film is not really good until the camera is an eye on the head of a poet"- Orson Welles And what a poem it was this "Dear Zindagi"! a ballad recited in a starry night. Film making is like realizing your dream is coming true, turning the cater pillars of your cocoon mind into colorful butterflies that take the sky and fly towards its freedom and light. and with so much bravery Gauri Shinde unfolded her wings. The story protagonist is Kaira the talented cinematographer who deals with a phase in her life that we all been through or still are. choices, being with the right guy or the right girl eternal dogmatic question and then being the dumpee before being dumped and the tragic consequences of this emotional burden we all carry like a second hump on our backs besides fear. then hell broke lose at the insomniac nights of heartbroken Kaira, saw a younger me turning like a hungry lion in a circus cage from the bed to the terrace and from one nightmare to the other. realistically portrayed by the gifted Aliaa Bhatt, i identified with Kaira only i wasn't fortunate enough to have the handsome Dr. Jehenghir Khan around . Mental illness is not a shame, it is like any disease and it needs treatment! a girl is a human being half of any society that is still in our countries suffering for just that. it took lots of guts from the mind stirring director to highlight these important issues that are our communities' crisis currently. take as many bows as you can dear Gauri Shinde, you stroke a chord in the heart of the world. i felt like in a celebration of life watching this spring fresh of a film. like all the shy buds bloomed off my watered eyes and sunny heart. a touching experience that i will never forget. Ready, wearing all my unrequited life queries and a little kid excitement at a trip to the fares, i stepped lovingly to the dark hall number 3.
I had read about Shah Rukh Khan the theater monster, the mammoth emotion volcano that erupts sometimes only in his fixed gazes and throws the lava of ability off his well built back turn and soul dozen packs, but then i saw him tonight in this -all seasons of a year in one- ride of delight film. not that he had gone anywhere tho, the same Shah Rukh Khan who did A Chak De or swades did Happy New Year and Dilwale with the same dediction and zest and with pouring all his heart, mind and soul he gave us "Fan". it is a matter of dedication that he commits to with the same belief, waking up every day wearing make up and embracing the world. He gives all he has be it candy floss cinema or niche films as this one is termed. though i am not so much into any kinda art frames. Shah Rukh Khan is always there, a director actor, and a tremendous artist by default. Watching all his previous Camera encounters and enchanting larger than life endeavors, i thought i saw it all. how will he ever renovate? create someone new every time with a totally different acting technique? but there oops He did it again! Shakira style (cheezy i know but couldn't help it) He brought Jehangir Khan to life with so much ease and effortlessness, portrayed all his emotionless emotions and not suppose to appear but we feel them, inner human struggles. this muted storm he is passing through, his muscles scorching and hands veins screaming dialogues got me totally in "shivers". the last shot of Jug deserves all the Oscars and awards in the universe for decades. Shah Rukh Khan the actor is an Iceberg that we only scratched its summit while what lies beneath the surface is unmeasured. (i just wish the Kursi hadn't creak. deep down in my heart i knew it would without showing it, but it was still an unforgettable moment that all of a sudden reminded me it's a movie not real life anymore) How he took his Character to himself, that fine line between the responsible professional therapist and the ordinary passionate man was drawn exquisitely by Shah Rukh's epic performance. The body language and his on fleek sense of humor, the use of every emotion just reached me as a viewer with all efficiency. he wears his feelings like a glove, a true blue master of acting, i wonder how he take them off in this 2 hours long cold shower rinse! He is where he is for a reason, an almost hour length role that bewildered me in every scene, those sea scenes were as refreshing as its real breeze splash on my tiered soul. now i know whenever by the beach, i will have some Mess(y) goals to score. I knew more always to come out of his hat, the delivery of his simple yet deep dialogues, he nailed it and how! the extraordinary ordinary, like a full moon he was shinning yet hiding his darkest side. the only set back is that i wanted more of Jug! i didn't want him to go..this vulnerability i sensed in a left written note on the door and an reciprocated goodbye hug touched me to the core. this tenderness of i am holding your hand go on look at her confession will haunt me forever. i was sold to these little details of his spectacular performance, that "Kusi" thingy i will always keep. dear Shah Rukh, keep doing and being the magic you are and we will keep falling in love with you all over again. just like we should.
Now coming to Aliaa, she totally took me by surprise! a full package of wonders, she hit me by storm how solid performance, a bundle of emotions moving, an ocean of talent, a Meryl Streep of her own merit. Still 23 yet completely full of her role and mastering every detail, the dress code and the facial expressions that really took me on a roller coaster. i cried with koko and cheered when she did. Kaira made me one of her 5 inner circle. everyone of us boys and girls relates to kaira. her fears and insecurities, hopes and expectations. and i will never forget that 10 years old boy who was sitting in the chair next to me that i heard sobbing at the brilliant crying scene with Dr. Jehangir and rolling tears on my cheeks myself, i handed him a tissue. thing is i don't know how will you ever get off that highway my love, you are now practically moved in. i am super proud of my lovely discovery Aliaa Bhatt! You Go girl! super duper awesome you are! and i am with you in this Dear Zindagi forever. You just got yourself a new ardent Fan.
Since i had lost count of the times i had watched English Vinglish and how my mom and i consider it one of our dearest friends that we enjoy its company, i had high hopes from dear Zindagi. but now after watching it, our girls night in just got a new intimate friend. Being the Scorsezee you are i am extremely grateful you exist in this world of cinema dear Gauri Shinde! the Maestro of this enticing sonata of life. a glamorous direction, sensitive topic that was handled with extreme artistry and elegance. made me look in the mirror as i got home and dearly caressed those bulging folds of my years with love not frustration. revisited my childhood memories sprinkled balsam on the healing still open wounds. How mighty is your camera, like a woman in love, each turn was like a coming home hug and every shot was like a kiss. the cinematography is sublime, the cadres were like paintings, a Monnet in your own elements. every frame whispered beauty in its finest gallery. the pace was very good not one dull moment which is exceptionally brilliant to achieve in such genre of niche films. in fact i wish it lasted longer. Such a beautiful ride of life you took us to. it is not impossible to accept ourselves just the way we are, forgive life and open our hearts to love without fear. such a meaningful chocolate content in a folded silver paper of pretty. Thank you all who were heroes in this film, Jackie, fatty, Raghu, Alka, Sid and Rumi. everyone fits amazingly in. the writing is a superstar, a splendid script and an extremely heartwarming performance of all artists. every song played on a nerve, drenching and soothing. but i wished Zindagi gale la gale was there too. This gem of a film is just outstanding, i highly recommend watching for all. 4.5 stars just go for it! thank you for this memorable trip that i am cherishing in my heart as my dear zindagi's own shrink. after all we do know by now that Goa is never a bad idea.

There is a thin line between passion and obsession. when you are in love sometimes you can't see it, it blurs in the bright lights of your illusion. you can justify everything to your loving self and though with all good intentions, sometimes you end up hurting before yourself the one you love the most. Too much of anything is less. but the Fan can't see beyond his own world and doesn't understand that the star he watches sparkling on the screen has a dark side too. Fan is a film every Fan should watch. because if doesn't help to build your life for the better, it's not love, then it turns into mere selfish obsession. Shah Rukh Khan versus Shah Rukh Khan they all said, i was waiting for this one because the story line tickles us all in many ways, we are all fans of something, and some of us do get carried away. This is how important this film is, it has a message that needs to reach all FANs.
Now wearing my favorite everything, all ready to go, early as usual i sat with my Coffee and observed around, all are ladies and children and all extremely excited that i saw a family coming late asking for tickets, it was house full! only front seats were available and yes, they took it. From the first five minutes i met Gaurav, Shah Rukh Khan creation, my friend asked: who is this actor, looks like SRK a lot! i smiled then told her: yes i wonder where they found him! every expression of Gaurav is familiar to me, the way he collected the photos, hanged them on his wall, the passion in his eyes. i could relate. though not having photo painted wall in my room, only in my heart. That first theater stage scene of Gaurav needs an award on its own. the way he is imitating his star and his star is in the background imitating himself all over again. this scene is a spark that lit the whole experience for me. i know SRK is a tremendous actor who is yet to show his assets, but it was freaking brilliant! schizophrenic seemed but sexy at that moment. I clapped with Gaurav speech. you can't help but stay with him, he takes your heart, steals your logic, you relate and see his reasons. minds can't agree but hearts understand. each on of us is a Gaurav, and it's only fair to be inspired by the one whose unconditionnal love resides in billion hearts. but always with good intentions. Every camera turn did its purpose, the make up is another hero! reaching this level of effortlessly representing VFX is magical! you don't see it but its there! take all the bows you can Red Chillies vfx entertainment. Epic stuff, Hollywood have nothing on you guys! this is such a proud moment. Maneesh Sharma frames puts you right in the fire. I know he is a Fan boy too, but this time He mastered it.it gave me chills all the tricks Gaurav did, how human nature changes when hurt. it's the blindness of love or may be it's sight. But it's Shah Rukh Khan that is striking again, this unmatched energy, physical fitness and extreme dedication is beyond my mind, bec i know how hurt he was shooting and his knee injuries troubled him but you can't notice even a limp! this is what professional superstar is about. The actor in him roars excellence, those chase scenes are superb! the darkness of the jail walls, the ache in gaurav weeping his 25 years of passion, the fire in his eyes burning the moments he made, rolled my tears all the way. Aryan anxiety, depicting its maturity and understanding, this struggle was real and rising the bar for any artist from now on, because FAN is a masterpiece of ART. what can i say, everyone loved it, the climax is smashing, i heard sighs, lil Ohhhss and ahhh..right in my ears from ppl i donno. i was mesmerized by the background score too, everything in this film touches you.
No songs needed, not dances but Gaurav sang with FAN eyes and Aryan danced with his starry glittering skin. keeping that balance between power and vulnerability is hard, but it's Shah Rukh Khan where it can all happen, just right. I am FAN OF FAN. I got FANned and you should go get this breath of fresh air too.
P.S. I still can't believe Aryan and Gaurav and Shah Rukh Khan are the same person! this is triple FANtasy..I am mind blown king Khan! Thank you for #FAN
"Everyone has a heart, but not everyone is a Dilwale." The Heart is where it all comes from, and it flows right through every sense with much ease. what starts in a blink of an eye, resides in a heart beat, remains with the soul. no matter how hard time gets, over its head the world turns, the love you feel in your big heart grows. distance matters not, when you can forgive. as Utopic as it sounds, love always prevails and its force is awakened. (not hinting to the star wars here tho tempted but to the strains of it) It has been almost 140 days of continuous hard work, wholehearted dedication from a cast that is gathered with so much love for each other and for their venture that shows on and off screen. The Come back of the sizzling Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol and another Bonanza of Rohit Shetty the emperor of Fun. High expectations! like most Shah Rukh Khan ardent fans, i followed attentively the steps of shaping this beautiful artwork called Dilwale. a film that witnessed the silver screen most beloved pair SRK and Kajol hitting it off all over again from where they left. The iconic performers, the philanthropists and most human people of this glittering industry. the royalties of Bollywood who take only their art seriously not themselves and they pay tribute to their greatness in every shot of this splendid celluloid gallery. i have seen every film, ad, and interview of SRK almost, and the man is an institution of excellence. a university of acting, he never takes himself nor his audience for granted though he can because He Khan! but no, he never did and that probably what makes him who he is. And we feel it as much as we feel him in his constant tireless efforts to entertain everyone and enjoy himself. Dilwale is a fast ride of beauty, i went early first day first show as always, fully concentrating and all heart to receive this labor of love with as much love as it was made with. Heart beated so fast as it begins, won't spoil the film for those who haven't seen it but i have to give it to Rohit shetty who impressed me with those icelandish flying hearts as much as he always used to with his flying beemers, audis and golden mustangs. An actor keeps renovating himself, digging into his deepest to regenerate his powers but here i saw a professional director who reinvented himself, totally mastering action, drama, romance and comedy with full splendor and amazing deliverance! Rohit shetty is a superstar in this one. watch out for his coming extravaganzas!
The frames are beautiful, well taken care of in terms of angles and light. Breathtaking cinematography i must say, the flash back of the story never failed to relate. i wasn't confused like most of time gaps story lines. i have to add this to the great telling of this love saga. You can't have a good film without a good story, a strong drama, this is the skeleton of the movie and Dilwale had a straight backbone that's Calcium rich. Shah Rukh khan, what to say you are not only an eye candy but a soul healer, with all your tiny details how you handle your character. Kaali charmed me and Raj took me by storm. i am blown away with this powerful depiction of the vulnerable lover and the devoted son and protective brother. the struggle you quietly held in your eyes, trapped tears and jaw line grins, this is another level of acting that should be named after you SRK. so many twists in the story that rendered it rather coherent and impressive another bonus to flavor this dishy course of art. Your veins bursting when angry, furious features and the epic response to the fights sequences, i mean you can't be 50 man! come on! how much fit and really over the top in form and action is unbelievable! Knowing he suffered from knee injury shortly before shooting Dilwale and how it never even affected not one scene of his especially the action ones makes me wonder is G.one was truly fictional? for this kind of pain demands only supernatural powers to bear it and yet not even a muscle shivered to show. and i know also, This G.One has it all in His big HART.
Driving chases, cars flying, bulgaria was stunningly portrayed in every shot. That brings me to Kajol, the timeless beauty, the monster of acting, how natural she is! effortlessly reaching my mind and heart with efficiency. I hated and loved Meera! as a woman it touched me, that intensity of her love and mischievousness in the same time. Her most beautiful eyes meet Shah Rukh's deep wells of secrets and both create magic spells on us their thirsty audience who truly missed that kind of waterfall. She rolls just like a dais, a full raw diamond. Facial Expressions, body language all of her being is into Her Meera. i salute you from here Queen and please never be late for delivering such epic performances again (at least one film a year ) All the cast and crew gave their best. varun dhavan was awesome, too energetic, dedicated and absolutely meeting up his role. Dynamic presence and his comic timings with varun sharma was remarkably entertaining and sanjay mishra is a blast..i mean all of them did great! Kriti was my surprise in this film, first time i see her act but felt like she's been doing it for long! so confident and carrying herself well before giants like SRK and Kajol i mean that counts much to the young beauty! she's on the right path. humble and doing her best. i like a lot. The window scene is my favorite of her. Johnny lever the tycoon of laughter! i cracked up at his every scene. hilarious takes and he grows only younger this man, so full of life and ageless experience. a source of smile with the rest of this lovely Dilwale.
All cast, the stunts team the decor units, the generous production is another anonymous soldier that must be noticed. every detail was elegantly represented, the car shaped furniture the colorful ambiance of the whole movie gives you a feel of love, beauty and excitement. That tv scene took the loudest cheers and i laughed my heart out, it's a hit! Dilwale is a labor of love in every sense of the word. Superlatives lose their meaning if i have to talk about how extraordinary this performance of SRK was. some tiny elements he handled masterfully, slow but steady moves, fire in his eyes with love and fury, muscles screaming of desire and pain. every frame with kajol was a volcano erupting in supremacy. Iceland has global warming issues for sure after the flaming Gerua and this sequence of Janam Janam is beyond this world. took me to my dreams but that i can only elaborate about in poetry i guess. Daayre captured me since i heard it, but now that i saw it, i get tears in my eyes recalling the scenes. perfect music i must say, not one song is imposed or out of context. Dilwale is well brewed, fitting in. blending well each element falls into place so much harmony between this artists shown in constant smiles, whistles and cheers of the Arabic audience that i watched with. regardless of all cultural variations, love is the universal language that reached everyone tonight and will touch all the rest of the world post tomorrow. It's not a professional review but my humble opinion as a viewer who enjoys good cinema and particularly Shah Rukh Khan's level of Greatness. I strongly recommend Dilwale for the holidays watch, it's fun and heart warming, well made and respects the mind. So beautiful people! Go watch Dilwale and Get "Dilwalified"
"Our religion cannot be defined or showed respect to by our meat-eating
habits. How banal and silly is that," said Shah Rukh Khan in a
hard-hitting and outspoken interview to NDTV. Speaking on the occasion
of his 50th birthday, the actor said that there was nothing worse than
religious intolerance and that it would take India to the Dark Ages. He
came out in support of the artistes and writers who have returned awards
to defend creative freedom, but said he wouldn't do it, rather would
choose a different form of protest, like a march or a strike. To twitter
abusers who tell him to go to Pakistan, he said, "this is a country
where my father fought for freedom and he gave me a piece of it. So I am
very proud of it and I am not giving away what my father gave (me) to
anyone or leaving any which way. So please shut up."
It took me a while to control my rage and anger towards all this unnecessary nuisance raised after this interviews he did with Barkha Dutt on the occasion of celebrating His 50th Birthday. To think deeply what is the reason behind all this mess of misinterpreting his words and turn it into disgraceful headlines. He is used to being targeted all over his 25 years of only bringing joy and excellence to the world, not only his people because as a foreigner i can easily say watching him and following his mind simply saved my life. i know i'm not the only one, millions around the globe share this inspiration and owe him lots of what they are now, being productive elements in their societies and families after he touched their lives without knowing with his magical wand of hope and belief. This angel who literally does fly, wants a better world for all of us, for his children and he doesn't only use words, but he proves it. He works 20 hours a day, through injuries and tough conditions to bring a ray of happiness to everyone, he is fearless, he dares to live not just survive. He speaks his mind the way most of us sometimes wish we can. He knows he will not be spared, why? this is the million dollars Question! is it because he made it on his own without having a family name to rest upon or a heritage of fame to claim? because all he had was a spark of madness and a ragging grief that took him to challenge all the norms and break through to the universe of hearts beating only his love. is it because he doesn't need anything from anyone? that he makes them feel powerless before his huge stardom, that they will never be able to touch even in their wildest dreams? or is it because He Khan, and he is different ? yes i think that hits the jackpot! "His name is Khan and He is different" now i have a title for my article if i may call it so. Yes he is different, just like each and every one of us. different in his own familiarity, different in being abnormal in a world who rejects change. Thing is, we don't have the commodity of acceptance to the other, no matter how different he is to us and our views. And i don't exclude anyone here. We find it hard to believe someone can be better or worked harder to step further, and we didn't. they can't reach out to his highest level of consciousness and awareness of his status and dedication towards his nation so they use the easiest stick in the yard and throw fits at his well spoken mind just because they can't reach this level of selflessness and clarity. they can't understand he got his courage from a different bank of votes, He has the highest stock of hearts loving him around the sphere and i'm including roses on the moon and rocks on Mars. He planted love and beauty, his charisma shakes mountains of solid traditional brains and brings rain to their arid deserts. He doesn't know how much ahead his being takes us, Solely He lead million Fans to live better and saved more orphan disabled minded souls and finally free from this age Cancer depression. That's why they can't take it, He is like a pure gem in a world of glass pickers who think they should rule the masses just because they want to. but no, He leads because he walks behind and takes the hand of anyone who falls. So before you condemn him for holding the fire torch of freedom, look at yourself first and think that as much as you don't find the tolerance in yourself to accept any difference, you will not be accepted also! it's a mutual treat. and we need to exchange that. I find it ridiculous and disgusting that he after raising the flag of his country highest, has to explain himself every time he has a release coming and jealous parties just want an easy piece of the cake.

"Duniya mein bas do kism ke log hote hain..winners n losers! N life wil

It is how it all started. The woman who made her way to life from early rough beginnings into the world's most renowned Director of all times. I am no critic or for the least Indian but i am a Big fan, A die hard Fan of Shah Rukh khan as they say, his craziest lover and i would love to believe his friend too ( He says my fans are my friends that's why i do feel this way) Again these two took me in a mad ride after Main hoon na and Om Shanti Om the lethal combo got larger than life itself in Happy New Year. It's not only about the Mega Production, the very sparkling locales and the Lavish A-Class Entertainment but its more about the Team spirit of power, about how to turn from losers to winners just by working hard and believing you can! which you definitely will after you watch this movie! you walk out of the movie theater feeling like "I am the king of the world" Literally! So, Here i am an Egyptian movie buff who moved out to kuwait 2 years ago just to be able to watch Shah Rukh khan movies first day first show because politics plays football in my country and Instability scores so i wouldn't take any chances. Booked my ticket on Wednesday night and barely slept ever since. After a big large Morning Black coffee i took off to the mall surfing around the cinescape hall with more hopes and coffee. when it was almost 5 i went in, preceded with my heartbeats drum roll, took my seat and set all my wildest fantasies free in the dark ceiling, now i am going to watch Happy new year! after that marathon promotions and anticipating wait my excitement had no end! I won't spoil the story for those who didn't watch it yet but i have to admit the heist is perfectly presented here with such craft that i admired! every person fits in his role like a glove. Great momentum, the film wouldn't ve made it without each and every one in place. Starting from the Ravishing dazzling Heart smashing Chandramohan manohar as an under ground fighter who loses for money, in the mouth watering fight sequence. we all died and got resurructed watching its bits and workout. it drops your jaw way beyond your capabilities of drooling, almost 49 the man looks fittest, sexiest and most magnificently ripped and chiseled! a peak into his own personality perfection, he goes the extra mile for his own worth. the pearls of sweat dripping on his bare torso splash your mind and drown your senses in an ocean of awe. How can one man be so full of wonders that he fills you up in a mud rising skin pose ? well, that's Shah Rukh Khan we are talking about so it makes perfect sense! again the word perfect seems to pop up all over my vocabulary , no other word suits this phenomenal human being more. His suave look, the beard and that subtle confidence in every shot is brilliant! the cinematography of this movie is way outstanding, Hollywood giants should learn from this one. How to glue a viewer 3 hours long to a seat that even pee can't dare to call upon you at intermission.
The characters introductions are hilariously smacking, Jag the ex-army bomb squad soldier Aspiring to be a director, Partly deaf but a complete Jackpot, jumps in the wagon of heart stealers, i honestly didn't know sonu sood before this film but i know now i will be following his every step ahead. He did his role every justice, so sonu yes, will you Call me too ;) The Parsi Stud Boman irani is flawlessly funny in a very nice way, i saw some bits of Sheren Farhad with his cute mommy and rosy window set. but i like how he professionally gets into his Tammy posture with so much ease and strength. Then the geeky nephew vivan hops in as the nerd of the gang, first time for me to watch vivan also, at 24 he so wanted to run as fast as the whole team and he did on same pace. It was intriguing since all of them are more engined but he has his pure will to shine and he used it well. Cute smile too! That brings us to Nandu Jackass..the Sharabi who has a special power of puking, and yeah at some point it became handy as cheesy as it sounds ! Farah always praised Abishceck Bachchan and i thought he is good but why all that fuss? then i know now, He was like never seen before! i first knew him as a struggler in the shadows of the Shahenshah, the emperor of Bollywood who is his legendary father but after Happy New Year, another very well self made star is born. An Abishchek who is out of himself for his role, totally funny, rich in expressions and comfortable at exploring himself. a double role that for us, a double Masa gaya Mohini, The Loveliest "Lovely" my personal most favorite song after Manwa laage her best intro in a film till date. After OSO , Deepika took all kinds of turns, but she has it in her that credibility of reaching out with her eyes, the comedy with straight face, like that *slip* bit cracked me up when it was so serious! she is a born to be on top girl. Deepika is so natural, lavishing moves and super dancing skills the way she burns in her silent love for Charlie touched me most (For all related reasons of course) only she is luckier! getting that dark hearted melting without uttering a word mastermind at her own right Mohini 's Arrt hai Arrt touched me so much i wanted to hug her everytime Charlie talks and never looks around him first. The group of losers are after a hand full of diamonds through a world dance championship in Dubai so, the colors, costumes, Music and locations take your breath away! the twist of actually mattering to someone, that sometimes its more about what you can do if you want it enough. the bunch of emotional fools take you to an exciting ride way beyond your expectations. Jackie made justice to the villain role with his eyes and violent moves. i like his contribution to the squad. The action Sequences on the roof top are exceptionally wild. scared the hell out of me though! My personal favorite is the VFX work i think the seventh Superhero in this film. Bollywood should be so proud having that kinda well advanced techniques in the most efficient VFX departement so far Red Chillies. Absolutely amazing VFX work! Dazzling is an understatement. Farah Khan again, "we always go back to where we started from no?" Kismet played fair with you this time. It's right you love SRK and its his aura all over the place but your skillful touches triggers his bullets of excellence and Charm. You make Him look as beautiful as he is inside out. It takes a real woman to perfectly Expose a Man's Soul in Bare 10Ab's Shot with Mud and Water looking this insanely Khantastic! And that end credit song is such a beautiful special trade mark of you. Bringing all your Little love bundles in front of the camera especially AbRam was the ultimate awesomness of this experience, HE IS WAY TOO CUTE TO BEGIN ANY KINDA DESCRIPTION! After papa, the Youngest Khan is A Charmer of his own. The film is a total paise vasool as they say, A full on entertainment in class and Epic sense of humor! that first half left me Laughing my ass out till my eyes teared! and the comedy of the situation (farce) is the hardest of all, yet its flawlessly obtained here. It's a RollerCoster of Madness that only keeps rising and you don't wanna get off. Happy New year will definitely Rock you Solid Happy new year is that one experience that will move you and will stay with you forever. Not an out of cadre shot or misplaced expression, every move made sense. Happy New Year Respects my mind and Earned my Respect. Hats off Indiawaale, you made me laugh, cheer, whistle and tear of emotion with you! In Happy New Year Everyone is a Superhero, They all have superpowers to
recreate you, make you feel powerful! to make you a winner.
Now My Charlie Hangover takes me places that i must take to my other blog for censorship reasons but Seriously Shah, you always say my best one is the next one, A tough task i would say, unless we are looking out for a backless back and frontless front inside out Soul Abs flaunting.

Some moments are nice, some are nicer and some are even worth writing about. ~ Charles Bukowski.
So this was one that is definitely worth a write. a detailed loving one. It was actually a very fine Monday afternoon as i was having my regular strong Coffee and logged in to twitter to check on him like everyday, reading a little bit of here and there he still wasn't around though i had a strong feeling he was silently but sticking to actual facts i just tweeted him that historical tweet i will forever be grateful for. Not expecting any reaction as usual but BANG..my notification board started blasting, i didn't notice at the beginning what was happening for i went to get more coffee when i came back the whole world was different! zillion Retweets&Favorits and people congratulating me..ohh what happened, could it be what in my wildest dreams i never thought it would happen? yeahhhhhhhhhhh freakin YESSS..ShahRukh Khan Retweeted Me!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Million OMGs came out of my screaming voice, of course i turned to my original nature of birth jumping around and dancing those african dances one does after his toe gets banged to a door only it was my heart that got kissed by a strike of love. How to describe that moment? i don't know. it was just like i stepped out of my skin for a while, like i was literally outta this noisy world. like i only see beauty, roses, laughs and everything seemed at its most pleasant state(considering the fact that i was standing in my winnie the pooh pajamas in the middle of my challenging to spot anything right away room, the whole universe fell into place at that second. And of course i cried, a lot. tears tasted sweet. i hugged my arms(nobody was there to hug, so i managed) kept spinning like a 7 years old then sit again, then stood firmly running around in my chaotic mind alleys humming, no fuckin way this is real! so i reloaded the page to see if i am mistaken..but no i was not. SHAH RUKH KHAN RETWEETED ME. oh lalalalaaaaaa after 4 years of constantly posing to his beautiful mind he did noticed i exist! ahhh so much for my little poor bruised heart that at once it got mended with the most perfect surgeant. and the fact that he doesn't know how much amazing his simple click was thrilled the hell outta my freaking senses. still in tears roll i kept staring at my handle beaming between his tweets, with his body hanging between the ring ropes as if hugging my calling eye. i was shaking and shivered, for a long while. The idea is, it wasn't the fact that he is the megasuperstar of all times he is, nor that he has this 7million and counting fan follow but what thrilled me the most was that his eyes had layed onto my name, he actually read it to smile then pressed the Retweet icon. it felt like we hugged for a moment. like i met him and shook eyes. in a minute he managed to cross the million miles separating us and held my being into his space. May be to some i am over reacting or exaggerating but i feel out of proper words to be able to describe how special his act of kindness made me feel. Those who know me well will understand how much it meant to me to pass by his mind, to ride on his thoughts for a second to dive into his mysterious head and intrigue his senses that too with a smile! i am the luckiest girl who ever existed. i feel most beautiful and it suddenly as if i have no more room for any pain. nor i will ever have, this moment i will save forever for when it gets darker on me and life shows off. i will always have this moment to lean on. this is how magical Shah Rukh Khan can get. He is not only the brilliant superstar and the extremely sexiest person on earth but he also holds the kindest heart. the warmest presence and he can make miracles come true with a smile and in my case he used a Retweet.
Dear ShahRukh, for 10 Fine years of my life i have been living with you in my mind every single moment. searching your news, watching your films as difficult as it was before you joined twitter i never tiered it was getting stronger every day this bond we share. its not love, i believe its far beyond the mere barriers of any language vocabulary. something words fall short to describe. something i hold on to be able to live. when you are happy i feel my heart dancing between my ribs, i smile like a kid and enjoy the question marks in the eyes of everyone around me when you are sad not only my eyes tear but my soul bleeds, i curse time&distance and wish i can crash them up and just be where you are to hug you, to hold your head and kiss your tears away those you trap behind a smile or a shy gaze. i feel how great you are when you don't even see it. i am one of billions who adore you, may be to some you are the superstar who make them happy within a shot and a song but to me you are the life i find myself most living. you are what a blessing of God means to me.
and before i get more emotional, i hope you know by now you are never alone and that there is someone across the borders would be more than happy to give you her life, serve you her own yummiest cooking recipes and write you every night a poem about how beautiful you make her feel.
P.S. I don't know if you will resume writing for dna, but please i am impatiently waiting for your article about Cancerians. Make my year Santa Rukh, July borns will forever be grateful and they are deliciously enchanting as you must have noticed. And of course we can always keep our hopes highest and dream of how can your bodyguards will manage peeling me off you as my friend said when we meet, i suggest a self control course i will not be an easy chip :P
and since we still have to get more creative to invent a more appropriate word to express how i feel about you, will settle with love for now and only keep it stronger, deeper and most overwhelming. take care of your precious self Hotstuff, love, Abeer Mohamed The Dreamer you Retweeted on Monday, 5.5.2014 and made her Happy for the rest of her life.
