- A question that Shahrukh is going to ask, but not answer.
  
  Shahrukh is coming back on Star Plus to host the new realty TV game show named Kya Aap Paanchvi Pass Se Tez Hain? (Are You smarter than a 5th grader?). The show will have adult contestants testing their IQs with 10 year old smarties. The prize money for the new show is 5 crores ($1.25 million), much more than the prize money (2 crores) in Shahrukh's last show Kaun Banega Crorepati.
  
  This will be a mega show and Shahrukh is claiming to achieve something good hosting the show.
  
  This year I have pledged to do something for children. Hosting 'Kya Aap Paanchvi Pass Se Tez Hain' is an effort in this direction. The aim is to do something that is not only enetrtaining but also educative.
  
  Good luck SRK!

- No place for Shahrukh in Hollywood

- Mr Khan, currently in Germany for the Berlin Film Festival, believes he belongs in Bollywood...and nowhere else.
  
  "There is no place for me in Hollywood or in European cinema. I would like to continue to work in India and to take the Indian cinema to the outside world," said Khan at a press conference.
  
  Attending the festival for the world premier of 'Om Shanti Om' (which, by the way, received much applause and praise at the festival), Shahrukh reckons he could bridge the gap between eastern and western films. "I may be someone to bind Europe and India through films," he says.
  
  Well, Shahrukh, we hope you're right because we at Bollywood Chutney love Indian films and want Bollywood-ignorant folks to know what they've been missing out on all this time!

    - Bollywood stars setting a bad example to millions of children by smoking on screen
    - Shahrukh Khan
- Shahrukh Khan and Amitabh Bachchan have been encouraged to stub it out by India's Health Minister. Ramadoss, is campaigning to ban smoking on screen, is worried about the number of young Indians becoming addicted to tabacco......... (Not to worry about all the other issues affecting Young Indians!!!) Apparently statistic showing 52 per cent of children have their first puff of cigarettes because of movie celebrities. Do we think it's the same in Hollywood?
  
  Khan states “As film-makers we should have creative liberties because cinema is all about make believe. It is an attempt to curb our creative freedom and amounted to censorship"
  
  In India around 250 million people smoke or chew tobacco, and 2,200 people die daily from tobacco related diseases.
  
  As part of the crackdown, the Government has outlawed smoking in public places and banned advertising for a series of tobacco products!! Hmmm so how long with that go on for?
  
  What do you guys think?

  Shah Rukh Khan is the hottest rather sexiest Asian man in the world according to the list published by a British weekly newspaper, ‘Eastern Eye’. Last year, Abhishek Bachchan had topped the list.
  
  The poll was based on a public voting system where people decide as to who they think is the sexiest Asian Man from a list of 100 names published in the Eastern Eye newspaper and website.

Ha! The smoker:

I respect him for doing that - it's so easy to get tempted by big bucks and try to look cool out in Hollywood. He knows he's the hottest property in bollywood, so why bother trying something else? Plus like you say - he knows that hollywood is shaking because bollywood is gonna go mainstream in the next few years!

'tis a good point doods - it's part and parcel of the image too - can't for example see someone not smoking in a Tarantino movie! Some things are just cool left without people babbling about influences - it's an artists' license after all.

doodler said:

I dunno, I agree with the no advertising for smoking and of course there are problems with youngsters being influenced, but banning smoking on screen? I am on Khan's side for this one, the notion that film and television influences kids is an ongoing argument and once you take the view that it is an unavoidable and overriding fact, you have to start taking every 'bad' thing off the screen. And where would that leave us?!
