I'm gonna shift base

... coz I'm trying to make my SRK blog into something that has less of a 'crazy fangirl' element to it and I thought that if I want to do that, I may as well come up with an entirely new blog altogether.

I'll still keep the ombollywood blog open of course. Once I've finished decorating the new domain for our lovely guy, I'll give a shout and paste the link here.

Watch this space! <3

O God.. I'm bloody boring..

I've written too many longass posts. I think I've bored the skulls off all my accidental visitors, including my own. I want to have a long rest.

From now on, it'll be just pictures and videos and around 140-letter comments! Links will be on twitter minus comments from boring old me. This rule will be in place until whenever I feel like ending it, which will probably take a while.. *mumbles and goes away*

So? What are you waiting for?

Omi's Korner - Much ado about nothing..

Know what? After roaming the net searching for gossips on Shah Rukh.. I've found out a vital thing. There is absolutely NOTHING to be found on him in the big bad cyber world. At least, not the type that usually plagues an actor.. oh, like rumoured scandals with co-stars or anyone of the opposite/same sex, fights in shooting locations, etc. etc. Yeah, yeah.. I know about his alleged off-screen 'practice' with Deepa Sahi to get the sex scene to look real.. or his rumoured affair with Karan Johar.. or...

Ok, that's all. Anyone can contribute anything else?

The only garbage that gets recyled every 3 months is his 'cold wars' with the Bacchans, the other two big Khans (one of which is now true, to the delight of quite a number of reporters suffering from writer's block coz yeay now they have something they can write over and over about ad nauseam and the articles are guaranteed to be read by the bored and unimaginative section of the masses), the new actors on the block, and....

Okkkay.. that's pretty much it. That's all the dirt I got on a man who's supposed to have a life like an open book. Doesn't make sense. But Shah Rukh seldom makes much sense to me. Why do you think I write about him so much?

What do I think about the Deepa Sahi angle? Well, that stuff is over a loooong time ago. Anyway, he walloped the ass off the reporter who wrote that stupid article and got arrested for it too. That's the 'jailed for a day' thing he talked about in his recent MNIK interview. It's also told in Anupama Chopra's King of Bollywood book, if I'm not mistaken. He still remembers you, reporter dude! Maybe he's forgotten your name (altho I honestly think he hasn't.. despite him always protesting that he's bad with names) but I bet he still remembers your face, and your newspaper, and the address of the place where you used to live.. if you've moved elsewhere. Incidentally, that's the first movie of his I watched.. yep, the uncut version coz I watched it on UK tv, don't remember which channel. She's the only woman Shah Rukh has ever kissed on the lips publicly (albeit fictionally), didja gals realise that? Not even Gauri has that over her. Bet it annoys a lot of people that he's so stubborn about getting the no-kissing clause in his contracts after Maya Memsaab, but I think..even that ultimately works in his favour. Coz he can be as erotic as he wants on-screen without getting into trouble later on. Clever guy.

About him supposedly being gay.. hmmm, it's true that the guys in his circle are not the most macho men on the planet: Karan Johar, Mushtaq Sheikh, Manish Malhotra, Shiamak Davar.. well, Arjun Rampal is considerably macho though while Saif has Kareena, so... ahhh, and those love messages to Abhishek in twitter are too casually given, aren't they? *grins* I also notice that guys can't seem to stop themselves from hugging him/holding his hands/grabbing his face/kissing his cheeks/checking him out.. in fact, there have been youtube comments by heterosexual guys admitting that they're turned on by him. See, when I think about it.. it seems that we're focusing on this issue from the wrong angle. I think it's not supposed to be "Is Shah Rukh gay?"... it should be "How much do you (manly men that you all are) want him to be gay?" ..ha!

What's my point in babbling all this? errrr...mmm...oh yes. Despite thriving in the prudishly strict media-policed world of the Bollywood entertainment industry for nearly 2 decades, being a celeb who has had more than 2 biographies written on him, and a life the public supposedly knows everything there is to know about.. that even he wrote in twitter to us fan + reporter followers something like: "You think therefore I am".. he's managed to escape unscathed year after year. Compare that to Tiger Woods who's currently languishing in a sex addiction rehab facility.. la la la la la. Shah Rukh is either THAT good.. or he's really totally squeaky clean *gasp*

I'm in despair of ever continuing my Omi's Korner, unless I change tact. And fast. So I've decided to focus on the controversy angle. It's pretty high-brow.. on the topics of religions, patriotisme, terrorism, sports, trade, yada yada yada.. I mean, seriously.. is this guy an actor or someone who runs for public office? So, I doubt my Omi's Korner is gonna be a popular section in this blog from now on given the discussion topic.. but what can I do? It's a life and death decision. And I chose to live the life of a bore, than to die a jester's death. Since I was born dull, this is not a difficult decision to make.. rather, it suits me just fine.. :P

Need a change..

Must be coz I'm getting old. The tiny letters of that blog format are starting to get on my nerves, so I dumped it for a new one. Now it's very minimal, coz I dunno know how to edit html, and stretches on to forever (or at least up to the limit of your monitor). Can't believe how much everything is emphasized when there's a white background as support.

Shah Rukh promised us some pictures yesterday but he couldn't give them this morning.. so the pictures (picture?) have to wait until tomorrow. The fail whale appeared several times during the course of the chat.. haha. The 'airwave' must be jammed due to our humongous tweeting activity. It's a GIANT CHAT ROOM!! Now the rate has increased to more than 60 tweets/sec. Cool..

I've abandoned the disheartening feeling of never having Shah Rukh read anything I write and just tweet for all its worth. Just do it!! I think the only time he has to actually sit and read whateva's in his twittbox is during these live sessions, so I'll be positive about it. I hope y'all be positive about it too and stop asking him to reply to you every 2 seconds or babbling about how he's never gonna read your tweets..yada yada yada (yes, I have the twitter search page turned on 24-7 and laid side-by-side to his). Don't waste your time with that kinda garbage when it's your (only?) opportunity to communicate with him...ON (almost) A DAILY BASIS.

(I love how he ordered Karan Johar around on twitter :P *ish amused*)

Have to go to school now.. my carriage awaits! (and 'the driver' has been poking me every 2 seconds to get ready ^^;;)

ATTENTION! ATTENTION!

The trailer for My Name Is Khan will be released on 16 December 2009 at 10pm across all Star TV channels. It will then be broadcast throughout other news and media outlets. The theatrical debut of the trailer will appear with James Cameron's Avatar. The film is slated for global release to theaters on 12 February 2010. (wiki)

...that's tomorrow folks!! At last, at last, at last. I'm nervous. Will I like this film? I have never liked any of the films produced by Hollywood or Bollywood with muslims as main characters before (yeah, CDI is okay but not a favourite of mine though I own the DVD. Surprised?). I wonder if MNIK will be an exception for me. Whatever's my reaction to it, I've waited for more than a year to see Shah Rukh acting in a movie again that I think I'm willing to put aside any discomfort I may experience during the viewing and just enjoy the show.

Can't wait for the movie to come out! \(^o^)/

Hi!

When I created this blog, I never thought anyone would bother to look it up or read it, much less to follow it. But with a variety of widgets I realised that this blog does get traffic despite the lack of promotion and dearth of recognizable tags.

My SRK blog was started because my obsession over Shah Rukh needs an outlet, but seeing all the flags nicely lined up on the side of it does make me feel happy that I'm not obsessing alone. Thanks so much for caring about Shah Rukh enough to put up with my nonsensical blab, esp at times when I wax lyrical about HIMSELF like 7 times a day. I want to assure you that my madness is not in any way a reflection on my idol's sanity (lol).

This is just to tell people who visit this blog and feel disappointed when there's no new post some days, that I do update almost everyday. But instead of writing new posts, I paste new links in my WIP posts because whenever I find some interesting ones, I archive them.

I need to watch his clips everyday or I'd die. Well, not immediately. It'd probably be a slow, withering death. Okay, for those who have difficulty in detecting dull humour, that was a joke.

So, check out those links! Who knows to what other fun links they'll lead you to :P

Achtung!

There won't be much update from this blog from this day on coz Shah Rukh is busy filming/preparing for Ra-1/reading/writing his muchly awaited autobiography/spending quality time with his kids/shopping for the latest gadgets/etc. and won't surface unless he's needed for:
  • interviews in talk shows
  • promo activities of his new films (and none of them will be releasing anytime soon so it'll be quite sometime b4 we get to savour this one)
  • new adverts

Or:

  • the journalists manage to catch him with their cameras on during whatever event
  • there're news headlines regarding the Knight Riders, which I think will take about a coupla months to be officially confirmed (and I don't want to paste rumours just to fill up space)
  • there're news on the progress of that producers-multiplexes issue

I'll irregularly just be posting quotes and old interviews/news, which most of you will find quite boring, I guess. So in the meantime, I would suggest you head over to these two wonderful places for your quick update on everything Shah Rukh: Planet SRK forum and SRK the Don.

Newly uploaded clips at youtube...

Just to say I'm updating my bigass video post (Talk Show) and the Idiot Box Projects post (the TV shows) tonight coz I don't want to study (this is the story of my lazy life) and I can't sleep. I think I should prolly put those 'NEW!" tags near new links, but I seriously can't be bothered. Heh... who reads this blog but me anyway XD

And the full video of RNBDJ songs have appeared in Youtube (eh? In January? How come I couldn't find it back then??). Does that mean the DVD's gonna hit our shore soon?
