When Shah Rukh Khan was left overwhelmed 03rd Oct 2007 09.01 IST By Agencies
The gestures of his Bollywood colleagues recently left superstar Shah Rukh Khan overwhelmed.
SRK had personally requested most of the 40 stars (including filmmakers like Subhash Ghai , Rakesh Roshan ) to play themselves in his forthcoming film Om Shanti Om .
Out of the 40 stars, 30 of them, (including Sanjay Dutt , Saif Ali Khan and Salman Khan ) have participated in a song picturisation that’s on the lines of Manmohan Desai’s ‘Naseeb’ (1981) number that showed a Bollywood party with many top actors ( Dharmendra , Rajesh Khanna , Raj Kapoor , etc.) during that time playing themselves as guests at the party.
The King Khan was thrilled by the enthusiastic responses from all those he contacted to be a part of his film.
Since the stars obliged and did not even charge a single penny for their services, a grateful SRK decided to repay them with a special memento.
SRK has presented special gift hampers to them and he personally chose special items to be packed in this gift basket that resembled the gift hamper that Karan Johar gives on his television show, Koffee with Karan.
SRK designed a special basket which included the latest Nokia handset, a Tag Heuer watch, a gold coin, ‘Om Shanti Om’ CDs, T-shirts and a personal letter signed by director Farah Khan and him. He gave them the hampers on the eve of the music launch of his film.
Who said Bollywood is only about competition and rivalries?
