We have seen and heard about the mega star Salman Khan cycling on the roads of Mumbai, not bothered about the traffic or the traffic jam that gets created in the bargain. Well, this time round, Salman was at it again but all done for a cause that's closer to Salman's heart than anyone and anything else: 'Being Human'.
Yesterday saw Salman Khan leading India's first ever international cycling event, 'Mumbai Cyclothon-Tour De Mumbai'. This event was grander and had more grandeur than all the recent events put together. Many of tinsel town residents had assembled to give the event a star glow. A huge crowd lined up to see the cyclists on the ever-busy Bandra Reclamation grounds. The crowd consisted of many amateur cyclists, working professionals, children, and even housewives! There were a total of 14 professional cycling teams competing with each other. Each world standard team was present along with the Indian national cycling team. Talking on the occasion, Dr. Raghuram, President, TI Cycles said that "We aim to help put Mumbai on the international cycling map as well as contribute to a healthier and greener environment through the BSA Hercules India Cyclothon, Mumbai-2010".
On the Khan household, besides the 'most-Wanted' Salman, one also saw presence of his brother Sohail Khan and also sister Arpita, who seemed to be happy about her brother taking her on a bicycle ride.

The going has been good for Madhavan who would be seen in Teen Patti this week. 2009 started off well with 13 B and ended on a brilliant note with 3 Idiots turning out to be biggest money spinner of all times. Looking at a fresher set of films in the coming months, most notably being Tanu Weds Manu and Freedom, Madhavan also opens up on half a dozen films that were announced at one point of time with his name in the credits. These were Aap Ke Liye Hum, Basra, Sunglass, Game On, Alibaug and Deewana.
Here is a blow by blow account of each of these films, right from the horse's mouth.
Sunglass [Director: Rituparno Ghosh, co-stars: Konkona Sen Sharma, Naseruddin Shah, Jaya Bachchan, Raima Sen]
"Yes, I have completed Sunglass quite some time back but it's up to the producers to release it. Only they can answer the question around the delay.
Basra [Director: Navdeep Singh]
"I was supposed to do Basra with director Navdeep Singh and co-star Akshaye Khanna. However, things didn't materialise between producer and the director. Things changed later and they needed my dates from November-February. That didn't work for me and I had to opt out."
Aap Ke Liye Hum [Director: Revathi, co-stars: Jaya Bachchan, Raveena Tandon, Vidya Malvade]
"I was getting a chance to work with Jayaji (Bachchan) in this film and was quite thrilled about it. In fact I had also shot for a couple of days but then the director fell ill and later there were certain pre-production issues. Again, all the dates were haywire. Now if the film moves ahead, I may continue working in it. So I am a little unsure about it's progress."
Alibaug [Director: Sanjay Dutt]
"I was supposed to work in it at the time when Mr. Sanjay Dutt was the central protagonist. Then there were certain problems between him and Sanjay Gupta and the film was delayed by 8 months. Later when the film started again, I didn't have spare dates myself."
Game On [Director: Nupur Ashtana, co-star - Tabu]
"This film is not happening at all."
Deewana [Director: Not known, co-star Amrita Arora]

Source: NDTV Entertainment News | 22 Feb 2010 | 12:40 am Shah Rukh bonds with Leonardo Di Caprio, Martin Scorsese at Berlin
Shah Rukh Khan doesn't sleep. Or so it seems. He landed in Mumbai on Thursday from Dubai after a show, but shows no sign of strain or jetlag. Just before Dubai the mega-star was in Berlin for the film festival negotiating the attention of hundreds of screaming fans.
What we don't know is that Shah Rukh met and bonded in Berlin with American auteur director Martin Scorsese and his favourite actor Leonardo Di Caprio.
Says Shah Rukh, "Leonardo, Martin and I spent some time together. Martin was gracious enough to remember that he had met me in Cannes way back in 2002 when I was there for Devdas. He wants to watch Devdas and I've promised to send it to him. I'll do so right way."
After the glorious performance in My Name Is Khan as a physically-disabled underdog journeying across America on a whimsical mission, Shah Rukh Khan is all set to play the super-hero flying across the sky to save humanity.
True to its mythological title, Ra.1 which starts shooting next month in Mumbai followed by Goa and London, will have Shah Rukh combating 10 villains. Raavan according to Hindu mythology, was a ten-headed demon whom Ram vanquished single-handedly.
In Ra.1, the modern day Raavan has been turned into ten different villains whom super-hero Shah Rukh, the modern day Ram will annihilate one after another.
Shah Rukh Khan seemed remarkably relaxed in Berlin on the day after his film My Name Is Khan opened in Mumbai accompanied by violent protests by the Shiv Sena.
Said Shah Rukh from Berlin, "I missed the opening in Mumbai. But I believe people have liked the film. I'm being told I'm in character. That's good to hear. Give me a character to be in, and I'm right there."
The SRK brand of humour was intact when told that My Name Is Khan doesn't look like a Karan Johar film. At his deadliest deadpan best SRK retorted, "Yeah, even I felt like that when I first saw it. I told Karan, 'Arrey yaar yeh tum ne kaisi picture banayee hai?' Actually the three ladies in our lives Hiroo Aunty (Karan's mother Hiroo Johar), Kajol and Gauri have made this film."
Getting serious SRK said, "I thought it would take audiences a little time to come to terms with the film. But I am glad it was well-received."
After playing the under-dog in two successive films Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi and My Name Is Khan (we aren't counting his guest appearance in Dulha Mil Gaya) Shah Rukh will be flying across the sky in Ra.1. The estimated budget of the film to be produced by Shah Rukh Khan's Red Chillies, is Rs 100 crores. And no Kareena Kapoor won't be joining him in midair. She plays Shah Rukh's grounded wife and not a super-woman.
Says a source close to Ra.1, "Kareena was keen to attempt the hi-jinks with Shah Rukh, especially since Agent Vinod where she has a lot of stunts has again been postponed But in Ra.1 all the conflict involves Shah Rukh and the ten villains."
Shah Rukh along with the film's director Anubhav Sinha and journalist-writer Mushtaq Sheikh, has co-written Ra.1 and will be credited as one of the writers.
The film will be in Hindi. Says the source, "He was advised to make the film in English. But Shah Rukh decided to make it in Hindi. Why should he pitch his super-hero film to the Western audience when they already have their Superman and Spiderman? Shah Rukh has no aspirations of cracking Hollywood on their terms."
The film requires the star to perform never-before heart-in-the-mouth stunts, which he's gearing up to do.Source: BollywoodHungama.com News | 22 Feb 2010 | 12:38 am Get a new phone, SRK - Times of India
