Shahrukh Khan to celebrate every win of KKR team in IPL 4

Finally all is going well for Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) owner and actor Shahrukh Khan in the IPL 4 season. The actor is so impressed with the performance of the team that he has planned to celebrate every win of the team in the IPL matches. To make this happen SRK has taken break from acting for next 3 months. This is contrast to IPL 2 when he returned from South Africa after his team was loosing every other match.

Shahrukh is very happy with both senior and junior players in the team. After the win of KKR over RR, SRK said, "It really feels great that the senior guys are holding together the entire team. I have just come back from Ajmer sharif. I am praying more and more for the team."
With SRK team leading the points table in IPL 4 and team has scored its 3rd consecutive victory, even the fans in Eden Garden, Kolkata who have remained absent in initial matches have started coming to cheer the team. This is despite Sourav Ganguly not in the team and his fans highly disappointed.

This is first time when KKR team has suddenly become hot favourite of many people and fans are quite optimistic for the team reaching into semi final. In all the previous IPL seasons, the team has been out of the contest before semi finals. In his usual sense of humour, team owner Shahrukh said that he will remove his shirt and show his six pack abs if the team makes it to final.

Shahrukh sings ‘Bheege Hont Tere’ for KKR

The Baadshah of Bollywood and celebrity co-owner of Kolkata Knight Riders, Shahrukh Khan was on cloud nine when his IPL team won the match against Rajasthan Royals on Sunday, at Eden Gardens.
To celebrate the victory of his team, King Khan organized a bash for KKR in Kolkata. Opportunely, crooner Kunal Ganjawala was also in Kolkata on the D-day and he too was invited by SRK for the party.
Known for his magnetic persona and exceptional ways of entertaining, Shahrukh bowled over everyone at the party by singing ‘Bheege Hont Tere’, the moment singer Kunal turned up at the party venue.
In a conversation with the media, a source said, "Kunal was in Kolkata when SRK threw the party and he invited him. But little did Kunal know that a surprise awaits him. Kunal's song Bheege Hoth Tere is one of his most popular numbers and as soon as he entered the party, SRK greeted him by singing the song himself".
Shahrukh was so elated about his team’s success that he didn’t mind turning a singer for KKR during the celebrations.
The source said, "SRK is not a great singer. But when he is around his people, he doesn't care. He sung almost the entire song and also got his team members to join him. It was a treat for KKR and also for Kunal. Having SRK croon one of the songs he has sung thrilled him".

Another Buddy Adds to the Exclusive List of Shahrukh Khan’s Best Friends!

Shah Rukh Khan, the ruling Khan of Bollywood and a globally famous superstar considers Sachiin Joshi, as his lucky mascot
Shah Rukh Khan adds one more for his encouragement. Whereas his usual actor friends go together with him to all the Indian Premier League matches his IPL team of the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) play, entrepreneur-turned-actor Sachiin Joshi now adheres to that elite list of SRK buddies.
The existing list of Shahrukh’s best friends includes the worldwide famous director Karan Johar who always been there for Shahrukh and has lended a hand in an unmatchable success of Shahrukh. Juhi Chawla who played as a co-star in many of Shahrukh’s movie and since then they considered each other as best friends. Kajol, a superstar herself and wife of an immensely popular actor Ajay Devgan also a best buddy of Shahrukh Khan and they have also done several movies together and the pair is considered to be the top duo for a romantic blockbuster movie. Rani Mukherjee, Farah Khan, Hritik Roshan and Madhuri Dixit also shares the exclusive list.
A source says that Shahrukh and Sachiin have been close friends now. He was in attendance at all the matches KKR played previous year.
But this year, shooting obligations put him away. When Sachiin stepped into the energy drink market, it was Shah Rukh who facilitated him launching it. The juvenile man is all set to his Bollywood acting debut with a thriller termed as Aazaan in which Shahrukh has been an immense support.
Sachiin says, “I know Shah Rukh through common friends. He has been supporting my brand as a friend though we have no official contract with him as brand ambassador. It was generous of him to launch the product. I am fortunate to get an invite from him to attend his KKR matches. He is a great man to know!”
The film debuts Sachiin Joshi as an army man who has to go undercover away from enemy lines to save the country from the danger of biological warfare. The film is being directed by Prashant Chaddha.

SRK, Juhi Chawla to build a cricket stadium

Proposed stadium will be built in Gujarat's Porbander

As far as the close buddies Juhi and SRK are concerned, the collaboration does not end with owning KKR and that of Dreamz Unlimited: a production house jointly owned by Shahrukh, Juhi Chawla and the producer Aziz Mirza. The friendship between the two has taken on another productive dimension with SRK joining hands with Juhi and her better half Jai Mehta to erect a cricket stadium. The proposed stadium will be built in Porbander. Apart from its association with Mahatma Gandhi, Porbandar is also the native place of Jay Mehta.
Consequently, the collaborating partners decided on it. The stadium to take after the name of Jay Mehta’s grandfather as Nanji Kalidas stadium will be centered on the existing Duleep cricket ground.
Regarding the construction of the proposed structure SRK in collaboration with the Mehtas have struck a deal with the local cricket association. In the initial phases of construction, batting pitches will be put to shape followed by those of stands and players’ dressing rooms. The expertise of a U.K based company will be taken into account for the construction of outfield and stands. The total expense is estimated at Rs. twelve crore.
SRK and Juhi Chawla’s love for the game together with Jai Mehta’s business acumen make them perfectly deserving to pursue the given venture.

Shahrukh Khan stopped Tweeting as people have agenda with their words

As we all know that Shahrukh Khan has been avoiding the Twitter like a plague after a lot of things went wrong in his personal life and apparently relationships also soured over a few comments. Thus he decided to swear off the networking site for good. However, when recently he was asked about it in an interview, he said that since people always have agenda to their words he decide to walk away.
Shahrukh Khan is also happy with the way things have turned up for Kolkata Knight Riders and he hopes that this time his team would surely take the coveted cup Home. In the interview to Times of India, when asked as to why controversies have been a part of the franchise SRK was very diplomatic. He said that given the profile of the Franchise this is bound to happen and that he remains unfazed by the controversies.
The actor was however upset regarding the fact that things did not work out between the team and Sourav Ganguly and he was happy with the way that the team is working this Season. He is also happy that the people of Kolkata has forgiven him and everyone is thronging Eden Gardens again.  

Talking about his Twitter Account he said that since he works he feels that he has to be vocal with his fans but somehow that is not working at all. Further adding he said, “I am somebody who leads life the most natural way. When I work I need to connect with people, so I come out and talk. I was using twitter to make myself vocal. But people kept saying things. The world has become such now that everything has an agenda to it. So I walked away.”
