23 Years Later, Shah Rukh Khan I Still Love You!

To fall in love and to stay out of it! How is that even possible? Such is the case of being in love with Shah Rukh Khan.  23 years ago, a young man with ruffled hair and a not so good looking face came riding on his bike with much style singing,

“Koi na koi chaahiye pyaar karne waala

Koi na koi chaahiye pyaar karne waala

Koi na koi chaahiye.. Hum pe marne waala

Dil-o-jaan lutaayenge

Hum toh usi par

Saath mein bitaayenge

Shyaam-o-saher Shyaam-o-saher o mere yaara”

 Did the director, Raj Kanwar know back then that these lyrics would indeed be the definition and the answer to them for the man who lip-synced them? With the likes of Rishi Kapoor, Amrish Puri and Divya Bharati, Shah Rukh Khan came and conquered with much elaan!

The nation was about to go gaga with his charm.

He left no stone unturned. Instead, he portrayed the various shades of gray that many refused to play. The obsessive lover in him that took the many forms in Baazigar, Anjaam, DDLJ and the subtlety of Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa and the lesser extreme tones that followed the mix continued with Pardes, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Dil Toh Paagal Hai, Devdas and the many films of this King Of Romance that followed.

On various occasions, Shah Rukh confessed that if there was anything consistent about his characters and his way of love, it was the belief that ‘Love is selfish’, contrary to the many who say ‘Love is selfless’.

Believe it or  not, that is how he became the dream lover of millions across the globe! There was no challenging his star power. There still isn’t.

While films today are judged either by the awards they win and the collections they bring in, Shah Rukh Khan has long surpassed the many levels of both. Be it the fact that he holds the maximum national honors (inclusive of Filmfare Awards and the many other awards) or the various international honors, Dr. Shah Rukh Khan stands tall in his shoes.

Not too long ago, he was named the second richest entertainer in the world and it is believed that he has already raked up his ranking to numero uno. There isn’t a second question about his king like lifestyle. Yet, his past has seen him spend sleepless nights on the many benches of Bombay.

While most of believe in the turn of destiny, it is people like him who make their destiny by adding the zen of handwork and dedication. With all those injuries and operations, a man who is on the brink of his 50th birthday carrying so much energy, charm and enigma is a rare occurrence. As rare as the presence of only one Shah Rukh Khan in the world of over 7 billion with every third man wanting to be like him.

There is no questioning the presence of his haters, because with lots of love also comes a lot of envy and criticism. Now only if we learned to deal with the unwanted pricks in our life with the wit like his.

How does one not smile at statements like, “I here people say… Why does he (Shah Rukh) wear dark glasses at night?” I’ll tell you why I wear them. I wear them because the sun doesn’t stop shining on me… even at night!”

Or this one- “Whenever I start feeling too arrogant about myself I take a trip to the U.S. The immigration guys kick the star out of my stardom!”

Even with all the flak he receives for his unmatchable wit, Shah Rukh Khan remains unperturbed. Of course unless his kids tell him that he is wrong. Whoever said that actors don’t make the best of parents gets it in his face with King Khan as he continues to be the coolest dad in this country! There’s no going wrong with King Khan when it comes to his kids (Just in case you have forgotten the Wankhede Controversy).

Not to forget his charity which he does in abundance but likes to keep it pious by not publicizing it or the many achievements and feathers in his hat right from being a heartthrob popular than most Hollywood biggies or simply being one of the richest entertainers in the world. With that energy at 50, this man is unstoppable.

This is not the first time that I write of him, I have written of him before and I shall write again. But I doubt with all my prolific writing and words of love, I’ll ever completely be able to describe the charm, persona, achievements and aura of this man. I see many like me. Their faith unfazed, their love unmoved and their faith unshaken.

Imagine, all of this for a man they have never met, for a man who is unaware of their existence and yet this man lives to entertain them! May be this is what they call love.

He lives for them, not knowing them.

They love him, cuz he lives for them!

Then, when I think of my own love for this man,I am drawn back to the inspiration and positivity he unconsciously  bestows. Let’s just say, I’m a better dreamer and he makes me believe in my dreams.

To each his own, every person I meet has a tale to tell about this man. Some who simply admire him, some who want to be him and some who hate him because they cannot be him. That energy, that passion, that dedication that he inspires is going to create wonders. Be it through the many aspiring to be him or the ones who’d simply follow his lessons!

As for me, I’m happy to be here. Happier to believe that there is some connect being born a year later, on the day his first film released.

Because the words won’t end and the feelings will still remain…

Here’s wishing this phenomenal man a future of good films that compliment his aura! While the rest continue learning the lessons of love from him <3

Because the love shall stay and keep growing, let me say it once again…

SHAH RUKH KHAN, WE LOVE YOU!

And they lived happily ever after!

Before you start reading this, answer this-

“DO YOU THINK HAPPY ENDINGS ARE OVER RATED?”

Cinderella, Snow white, Rapunzel, The Sleeping Beauty…

We all grew up to fairy tales that were used to make believe in the most popular conclusion of all times, “…And they lived happily ever after.”

Nobody knows what happened to Snow white after she met Prince Charming, did Cinderella gain acceptance from the royal household and the people when she met the Prince of her dreams, nobody knows if the Sleeping Beauty was never again troubled by the Dark Fairy! And back then, these questions never bothered us nor did we think beyond the concept of ‘Happy Endings.’

May be we don’t realize the trivial nature of reality unless we come across its harsh exposures.

While there were no more stories being told, we entered another magical illusion, the cinema. Like most people in this country, movies were the quintessential entertainers, stress busters and escape from reality. So whether it was Basanti and Veeru’s chemistry in Sholay or Raj and Simran’s love story, you grew up knowing, goodness would triumph and the film would end on the note ‘… and they lived happily ever after.’

Yes! We did grow up to believe that. Not just in the love stories but in any story. Be it the battle between the good son (Shashi Kapoor) and the villainous son (Amitabh Bachchan) in Deewar or the Don and his look-alike Vijay in the original DON (1975). Not all, but most films until recently believed in ‘happy endings.’

In spite of all that predictability, we have always rooted for everything to end well. To sum it up in a dialogue, “Humare filmon ki tarah, humarai zindagi mein bhi end tak sab kuch theek ho hee jaata hai. Happies endings. Aur agar theek na ho, toh who di end nahi; picture abhi baaki hai mere dost!” (From Om Shanti Om)

We have always been taught moral stories and all the right values. Like I always say, Indian society highly believes in preaching morals and idealism. All of this in the hope, that whenever in life need be, we shall take the right lessons, stick to our morals and ethics and follow the path of goodness hoping for it to end well. And who knows, had it not been for these stories, we would have easily given up for an easy compromise with the convenient ways!

And well, don’t we do that now? While everybody has been busy debating whether cinema influences society or reflects the ways of society, let’s just say it is a combination of both. Our entertainment reflects our culture and introduces innovations in our way of living.

I earlier referred to the triumph of good over evil, portrayed in DON, I get back to the modern remake and sequel of the film, where it s not about goodness, but about being the smarter one. May be earlier, we didn’t live in an exactly ideal society, but today we have learnt to accept and give in to the ‘Dark side’ too in the name of ‘being practical.’ And yes, it is alright to break relationships that don’t work, unlike the olden days when people strived harder to make relationships work when they didn’t. It is fine today to choose your career over everything else. I say this without sarcasm, but with acceptability. This is how, we have learnt to live. And maybe, this too shall change.

Irony is, that over the time we have developed a misconception, ‘To accept a theory, you have to reject another.’ And guess what! People have just begun to discard the idea of happy endings by terming them to be myths! How cynically hopeless can we be to lose hope even without hoping?

No! Let’s keep the faith alive…

It shall all be fine!

“Happiess Endings with a wide eSmileee”

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KING KHAN!

             HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE MAN WHO TAUGHT US TO BELIEVE IN THE ABSTRACTS OF LOVE, HAPPINESS & DREAMS!!!
                                                                                                           


DIL SE...

“Woh Kehta Hain Main Us Jaisa Nahin
Phir Kyun Mujh Jaisa Woh Lagta Hain”

Writing an introduction for a man, whose name, whose look, whose voice, whose work is introductory enough to create a global stir, is quite an uphill task! But to not write about someone who I love, respect, admire and look up to, on a day as special as his birthday would be a big enough sin!

While the Bollywood Baadshah- SHAHRUKH KHAN turns 47 years young today and is all engaged in accepting the love that his family, friends and fans are showering over him from world across, I sit before my laptop writing a few words about him. Today as I sit as an unknown admirant of the Khan, unable to meet or wish him personally, I write this blog in the hope that SRK shall read it on some random day!

47! Or 3 short of 50 and still young! 
20 years and still spreading the bollywood fever!

I wouldn’t anymore talk of his self made career and stardom, but what has earned him all of it is his Warmth and that Enviable Incredible Energy!

Yes!!! Shahrukh is not just young, but redefines energy! Shoots, Ads, Promotions, Matches, Business, Wedding Appearances, he does everything all round the year through to keep one and all entertained!

Undoubtedly, he is media’s favourite child! Through news, rumours, promotions and well controversies, two things sell the best- SEX & SRK! And as the Khan himself claims, “Aren’t they the same thing?”

Yes, at 47 too… when our fathers and uncles are inching closer to retirement, getting their hair greyed and losing out easy on energy, King Khan continues to be “SEXY & DESIRABLE, undoubtedly.”

See him romancing like a 20 year old in Jab Tak Hai Jaan, see him do the cartwheels to entertain the crowd at his team’s IPL matches, see him speak up his witty best in his interviews, see those filmfare award shows that he so effortlessly pulls off, see him come out to thank his fans on his birthday! And well, who can forget the dream of being his Chhammak Chhallo?

With a broken back, shoulder injuries and all the excursion that adds to the efforts, he stands there smiling, uncomplaining, spreading his arms with love to contain the world with goodness!

While some brag of “Him Bragging” about kids, about values, about himself…doesn’t all that he speaks make sense and adds enlightenment!

Whether or not an SRK fan, sit some day, watch any of his interview from the beginning till the end; it’s a promise that you shall end up with a mix of smiles, tears, inspiration, motivation and a lot of learning to carry forward! Its typically an SRK thing!

While most women love him for the cliché`s of Raj and Rahul that they fell in love with, he displayed versatile shades through his films like Darr, Baazigar, Chak De, Swades, Paheli, Ra.One, Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani and many more. His experiments have often been tagged as flops, but the thought and guts behind the experiments, the difference that they carry were none like any other. Shahrukh, a highly intelligent and well read person remembers an important advice from one of his early directors, Lekh Tandon-“When you are out there to act, forget what makes sense and what doesn’t. Script is the God”. Perhaps that’s exactly what Khan has been doing over the years, but his desire to experiment and make better films reflect in the projects that he takes up as a producer with drastically distinct films like Asoka, Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani, Ra.One which were far ahead of their times.

For the famous Bollywood flavor that Shahrukh carries and his famous for worldwide, I’d like to share a recent interaction with a German Film Critic. When asked of the liking for Bollywood in Germany he reverted, “It was Raj Kapoor and now it is Shahrukh Khan. We love the Bollywood culture, the dance, the music, the drama, the dialogues, the color, the culture. When Shahrukh Khan comes to Germany fans are all eager to meet the charmer. They wait outside his hotel even at midnight just to get a glimpse of the superstar. In popularity, Shahrukh beats George Clooney too!

In fact, on his recent visit to India last month, he revisited Maratha Mandir, to watch Shahrukh’s longest running film DDLJ, which he defines to be perfect!

And well! We wouldn’t disagree :) 

“Woh Kehta Hain Main Us Jaisa Nahin
Phir Kyun Mujh Jaisa Woh Lagta Hain”

He denies being a role model, because he believes he hasn’t done anything worthy of being a role model. But Shahrukh- for all the smiles, happiness, love and entertainment, values, goodness, the inspiration, motivation and positivity and all the little things that you add to our lives by your films, your words, your life; you are worth all the respect, love and admiration!

About Shahrukh and his qualities I could probably just go on and on ranting! But probably here is where I end, eagerly waiting to watch more and more of SRK, Yes! Jab Tak Hai Jaan better release soon!

And come sooner the day when I shall work with the King of Hearts himself!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHAHRUKH!!! May that smile get wider, may those eyes always twinkle, may the happiness keep coming, may the hearts keep loving! Wishing you a life of Kingship and a Kingdom of love, happiness, health and successs to you JAB TAK HAI JAAN!

Much, Much, Much love and regards!

Parampara

Loving the King of Hearts!

He came, he charmed and he conquered!

And he continues to reign millions of hearts across the globe effortlessly with that mesmerizing smile, those deep dimples, innocent eyes and all that wit and charm that fits the package!

He spreads his arms wide and the love flows endlessly!

“Tujhe dekha to ye jaana sanam; pyaar hota hai deewana sanam

Ab yaha se kaha jaaye hum, tera baaho mein mar jaaye hum”

These few tactics were enough for any girl to crave to be his Chhammak Chhallo!

He made you fall in love, he made you believe in love, he taught you how to love and he himself passed soooo much love to contain all the niceness and spread happiness to the world!

All that he demanded in return was Love and more Love!

He fought for love! “Tu Hai Meri Kiran”

He stood against beliefs! He said, “My Name Is Khan and I am Not a Terrorist”

He gave the mantra of strength and passion as he said, “Chak De! India!!!”

Eventually for everyone he said, “Haso , Jeeyo, Muskurao! Kya Pata Kal Ho Na”

As Raj, Rahul, Aman, Khan, G.One and Don: SHAHRUKH KHAN was the man who came and won it all!

The positivity with which he says his favorite phrase, “Inshallah” yes! God willing it shall happen! The positivity has already enveloped you by then!

Even as I write this, words fall short! There’s soo much to say I don’t know what to miss out! Pages, Books and Series would not be enough to describe my hero!

He’s Special! That’s obvious and he’ll remain to be!

25^th June 1992 Khan happened to the Indian Film Industry! Ever since it’s all about his charm!

The actor, the producer, the TV host, the media entrepreneur, the cricket team owner, edu-media investor, the football team investor, the life of live events and award ceremonies,  the public figure, the doting father, the visionary, the charmer, the one who spreads happiness!

Deewana, Anjaam, Baazigar, Darr, DDLJ, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Dil To Paagal Hai, Kabhie Khushi Kabhi Gam, Main Hoon Na, Veer Zaara, Om Shanti Om, Swades, Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna, Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, Dil Se, Don, Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani, Chak De, India, Swades, Kal Ho Na Ho, My Name Is Khan, Ra.one, Pardes….

Be it dancing on the train or with Bollywood beauties he can mesmerize almost anyone! Absolutely anyone!

He’s not just an entertainer, he’s an intelligent entertainer! There’s a thinking that goes deep and that the words reflect! There’s a total love for the self that can be termed as Connect! There have been controversies, naysayers, critics and gossipers: But a man who stands by his values and beliefs and well chooses the boundaries of his head and heart

Words can never define him!

What can one say about Shah that probably no-one knows? He’s like an open book with too many hidden secrets! Some learn to decode them some learn to mis-interpret! Some love to love him while other’s love to hate him! But yes! YOU SIMPLY CAN’T IGNORE HIM!

Shah is a global icon, with fans far and wide! He says, “I’m no role model; cuz I don’t do the kind of good things that role models do!” But for us he is a role model, cuz he does the best thing- Makes us Smile!  SRK is not just an actor he is a Phenomenon! He will creep into your mind and capture your heart!

“mein aankhe band karta hun to tumhe dekhta hun
aankhe kholta hun to tumhe dekhna chahta hun
tum paas nahi hoti to tumhe charo taraf mehsoos karta hun
har pal har ghadi har waqt merre naina mere naina ko doondate hain
ise pyar kaho paagalpan ya mere dil ki dhadkan
mere liye ek hi baat hai
pyar to bahut log karte hain
lekin mere jaisa pyar koi nahi kar sakta
kyonki kisi ke paas tum jo nahi ho
mein tumhe bhool nahi sakta naina
mein tumhe bhoolna hi nahi chahta
tum meri ho, mein tumhe zindagi bhar pyar karunga
marte dam tak pyar karunga aur uske baad bhi”

SHAHRUKH WE LOVE YOU!

THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THOSE SMILES AND FILLING OUR LIVES WITH JOY!

MORE POWER TO YOU!

“INSHALLAH”

RA.VIEW.ONE

Allow me to quote Mr. Shekhar Subramaniam and myself, “Burai sang jo mel rachaaya, kabhi na chute uska saaya”

Achhai sang jo film banaye; poore jag mein who chha jaaye!”

RA.ONE is a sincere effort from the entire team to make an important breakthrough in the history of Indian Cinema.

The film starts with dream sequence with subtle humor to incorporate the star studded guest appearances and to introduce the central character of the film Prateek (Armaan Verma) who loves video games and their very cool baddies.

Prateek’s father is the not so cool, normally clumsy video game maker Shekhar Subramaniam (Shahrukh Khan with the curly locks) who eats noodles with curd with the help of his hands and his mother is the glamour girl- chic mom, whose doing a thesis on Indian gaali’s which are women centric, Sonia Subramaniam (Kareena Kapoor)

The story unfolds as Shekhar makes a video game for his son, where the villain is more powerful than the hero. Prateek gets very happy and is excited to play the game first. The gaming champ starts playing the game and reaches the final level and leaves. And RA.ONE- the villain is after Lucifer to finish him and prove his invincibility.

Shekhar and his colleague Aakashi are killed by RA.ONE in the process of setting things right. RA.ONE is now out of the virtual world after Prateek who is now with the support of his mother only after the tragic death of his father. He has to protect himself, his mother and find out his dad’s murderer.

And, to protect him with this impossible mission enters G.ONE (also played by Shah Rukh Khan sans those curls), the cool, powerful superhero from the same video game.

The story travels to India as the Subramaniam family shifts back to their home of memories, along with G.ONE who is protecting them, in order to stay away from the evil intentions of RA.ONE.

But RA.ONE (played by Arjun Rampal in the second half) is ever more powerful in the hunt of Prateek, travels to India- here we get to see the ultimate battle between RA.ONE-the super villain with a H.A.R.T and G.ONE-the superhero with a H.A.R.T.

Chammak Challo and the loads of VFX set it all in tune.

 the writing of the film has much to criticize. Though some dialogues manage to pull attention. Certain language that has been used is not a very comfortable language to be used in front of kids.

Humor is subtle and manages to pull many a light moments.

Shah Rukh’s act as Shekhar Subramaniam looks caricatures, but the entry of G.ONE sets the energy flowing, with the charm and performance King Khan is convincing, adorable and redefines his standards.

Kareena Kapoor is the most gorgeous CHAMMAK CHALLO! Outdoing herself again with a mystique performance. Her train scene, where she’s under the control of the baddie manages to give you goosebumps.

Debutante Armaan Verma could not have asked for anything better! Remains adorable son throughout.

Arjun Rampal- the hottest baddie is very impressive with his short act, well toned body and well written dialogues, who can forget- “raavan ko tum har saal islliye jalate ho, kyonki tum jaante ho who kabhi nahi marta”

Anubhav Sinha’s direction falters at many places and events, but the performances manage to let go.

Not to miss, Rajnikanth’s cameo as CHITTI is worth a ceete!

The VFX are simply outstanding. They put RA.ONE on par with any Hollywood film.

What lacks is the emotional element and grip of writing. More attention is given to the VFX than the story. This can be disappointing for the adults.

But since the Baadshah Khan himself dedicates it to the Kids, they are sure to enjoy it and fall in love with the Game.

RA.ONE IS EVERY CHILD’S GAME THIS SEASON!!!

RA.ONE is a complete entertainer! Paisa Vasool!

RA.ONE’s technical excellence is a breakthrough for Indian Cinema. It shows that Indian Cinema wont be lacking behind. And there will be more of films of this genre!

DON2 has already declared its 3D release. And the game has just begun!

RA.ONE is definitely a hats off to SRK for bringing forth important breakthroughs in Indian Cinema- technologically, marketing, promotions, concepts!!!

The most expensive film is sure to set the Box Office across the globe on fire!

***1/2+1/2 (for the daring to bring up this kind of a film)

WAY TO RA.ONE...

It’s less than countdown time…

A few hours from now efforts of more than 5000 skilled people, 5years of patience and consistency, 5 times the budget of a normal venture, over 5 months of promotions and a dream of one man who thinks with his heart and his brain follows and the his audience of millions across the globe!

He is no small man…

And this is no small a project…

I’m talking about the Baadshah of Bollywood- Shah Rukh Khan and his magnum opus Ra.One!

It was in 2008 where he released his mega projects like Chak De! India and Om Shanti Om after which his last release was My Name is Khan, another bold step to talk about the plight of the Muslims in the USA & across the world post the 9/11 terror attacks. This Aspergers Syndrome Khan went on to win the world with his innocent claim, “My Name Is Khan And I’m not a terrorist”

Wonders it was with Rizwan Khan charming you all over again, with his best paired Simran turned Mandira (Kajol) to recreate magic.

But the question was the ever energetic King Khan who would do 3-4 films a year, a tv show and create lots of buzz with his ever increasing list brand endorsements and a glamorous IPL team to cheer was beginning to disappear!

But where?

Had Khan lost his charm over the Bollywood?

Or was it the ageing factor?

Was he planning to retire?

Or was he scared of the ever competent success of his contemporaries with their films earning over 100 crores???

Had the Khan lost his Kingdom???

And then,

One fine day all the rumours set aside, amidst a commercial break of the Cricket World Cup matches came the trailer of his magnum opus- Ra.One!

It looked grand…and it just got bigger, with the arrival of the Chammak Chhallo! Khan had booked the diwali to burst has mega diwali cracker- and others made way for him by anticipating and post poning their projects.

2months to the release and Ra.One began to spread in the air-brand tie ups, promotions, merchandise, contests, headlines, posters, gossip, magazines, city tours, trailers, games, and everything that could happen began to take shape.

It covered ever mean of social media to reach to the people- facebook, twitter, google plus, youtube, newspapers, grand finale of 3 reality shows at the same time, endless bytes, endless interviews, radio shows, live chat with fans, coverpage of magazines…and the list won’t agree to end there’s such a buzz!

City tours, ad shoots, trips to the edit, allegations and accusations, product launches, brand tie ups- there is so much energy that Khan has spread across the globe!

Truly he’s turned a superhero- more than 25brand tie ups right from mc donalds- where a happy meal can get you your own personal 9” G.One, to tie with the German Car manufacturer-Volkswagen whose cars were blown up in the films shoot, the Ra.One games on playstation, mobile apps and selling double the regular products BRAND SRK has efficiently built brand RA.ONE, which can even boast of a franchise of its own- action figures, notebooks, toys & event a tablet pc! Leaving no stone unturned yet Khan refuses to take the tag of the MARKETING OR THE PR GURU. He’s says that he’s not selling his product but only asking people to come and enjoy an emotional experience, to live a part of him.

RA.ONE IS IN THE AIR!

Where Shah Rukh plays not the title role but G.One , the title character, the evil one is played by Arjun Rampal whose look was unveiled not until less than a month away from release.

Apart from the leading lady Kareena Kapoor, King Khan himself and National Award winner Arjun Rampal, debutant kid Armaan Verma; Sanjay Dutt, Priyanka Chopra, Rajnikanth have done cameo’s for this dreamer. Whereas,  the Big B of Bollywood has also been a part of the film by rendering his baritone voice.

But Shah Rukh has a different trump! It’s his introduction of an extensive VFX technology- the film boasts of 3500 VFX to make it a visual treat and experience magnified! Khan believes that after Ra.One many more film makers will use this wonderous technology to magnify Indian Cinema.

And to give all these efforts a grand culmination, Red Chillies Entertainment and Eros Entertainment have bagged a 95% screening of the film. The film will be screened in 3500 screens in India and 500 screens across the rest of the globe!

Not to miss out the film will not just treat you with 2D motion but will also bring forth the 3^rd dimension!

And so much in a film truly makes it the costliest Indian Film till date with its budget ranging from around 150-200 crores!!!

CHHAMMAK CHHALLO IS GROOVING!

SRK IS EVRYWHERE ON TV, PROMOTIONS, NEWSPAPERS!

RA.ONE IS THE FRANCHISES- GAMES, TOYS, TECHNOLOGY!

Dawning close to release the team ONE- Anubhav Sinha its director, Khan, all technicians, artists, designers and every brand and person are hopeful, with their fingers crossed and hopes high to touch the hearts of the people!

All efforts are visible like the clouds of rain, thick and full.

It’s about to RAIN!

Ra.One as viewer to me has been a journey of inspiration, a motivation to dream and dream big, its flattering, its stunning, it leaves you speechless and it creates magic! Most of all it brings the feeling of reverence!

I stand up and bow to the efforts of TEAM.ONE…there’s a lot more to learn, lot more to say…somewhere I’m spellbound and speechless!!!

This very respect and salute to the efforts of the dreamer and the believer, of the criminal-whose crime is to make you smile and to make you want to be his Chhammak Challo!!!

We go watch films to entertain ourselves, to enjoy, to be happy, to change our mood or even just for time pass. This time go watch a movie to respect the efforts and passion of its makers- who want to keep innovating and keep bring a positive change to keep you entertained! I assure you this wont be a disappointment!

Do watch RA.ONE for your Raj, Rahul, Kabir Khan, Rizwan Khan, Raju, Shahrukh Khan or if anyone around you, close to you has ever smiled thanks to this man!

                                            RA.ONE- U’RE: THE ONE!

                                            GOOD LUCK TEAM ONE!
