When Shah Rukh Khan invited Amitabh Bachchan to play video game

Megastar Amitabh Bachchan and superstar Shah Rukh Khan are on top of the Bollywood scene, but they aren’t as competent when it comes to competing with their grandchildren and children at video games and adventure sports.

Amitabh, who is busy spending the New Year with his family, shared his experience of a Jet Ski adventure with his grandchildren. The 71-year old actor has three grandchildren – Agastya, Navya Naveli and Aaradhya.

“The Panama…the sea…and after getting beat on Jet Ski by grandchildren,” Amitabh posted on the microblogging site on Tuesday (December 31, 2013).

Shah Rukh Khan, who enjoys playing a video game version of FIFA invited Amitabh for a friendly game as he is tired of being ‘beaten at all games’ by his kids.

“Sir, take out time tomorrow (January 1)…let’s do a little FIFA…I am also tired of being beaten at all games by kids since last few days,” SRK posted on Twitter on Tuesday (December 31, 2013).

SRK, who is married to Gauri Khan, has son Aryan, daughter Suhana and surrogate son AbRam.

Shah Rukh Khan to share screen space with Farhan Akhtar in Raees

Superstar Shah Rukh Khan will be playing a bootlegger and actor-turned-filmmaker Farhan Akhtar a cop in Rahul Dholakia’s next movie, Raees. “Shooting for this film will begin from mid next year. Shahrukh will be playing a bootlegger and Farhan a policeman. It is an interesting story,” Dholakia said. 

This is the very first time that these 2 actors will be sharing the screen space. They had worked together for the remake version of Don and its sequel Don 2, where Farhan was involved in the project as a producer while SRK played the main lead. Raees will be produced by Excel Entertainment.

“We all have decided to release this film on Eid in 2015,” Rahul added.

3 Releases In 12 Months!

For someone who is usually only seen in 1 movie per year (and very rarely 2), Shah Rukh Khan would have quite a few surprises for his fans to bring in 2014-2015. In 12 months he would be bringing “Happy New Year”, ”Fan” and ”Raees”. 

“That’s true”, confirms a source. “While ‘Happy New Year’ is being planned for Diwali 2014 release (October), ‘Raees’ has picked Eid 2015 (September) as its arrival. In the interim period, his ‘Fan’ would release as well. Rumours of a Christmas 2014 release have already started floating around”. 

This is a very rare scenario as it was way back in 2006-2007 when something like this had occurred.

“At that time, Shah Rukh Khan was seen in four films in 15 months time period, what with ‘Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna’, ‘Don’, ‘Chak De! India’ and ‘Om Shanti Om’ arriving in quick succession between August 2007 and November 2007. Ever since then, he has slowed down,” an insider adds. 

While he was consumed with the making of ‘Ra.One’ for the longest duration, his last biggie ‘Chennai Express’ too was in the making for long. However, Shahrukh is pretty much making for the lost time by giving a go ahead to multiple films.
