Shahrukh Khan flaunts his grey stubble

On Thursday afternoon, actor Shah Rukh Khan, 45 , came to the Capital sporting a grey stubble, among other things. A string of beads dangling loosely from his left hand, the actor sauntered in at the ITC Maurya hotel to cheer for his team Kolkata Knight Riders, who played against the Delhi Dared evils later that evening in the city’s Feroz Shah Kotla stadium. Reported as his newfound lucky charm, the bead-string drew much attention, but not more than his salt-and- pepper look. The actor also wore an emerald green ring on his right hand and a pair of black shades. His signature reading glasses with red hinges rested on his cleave. Shah Rukh had last created ripples with his unkempt long locks, a look he revealed in the capital while shooting for his forthcoming film, Don 2 , in February. Now, though, he seems to have discovered his ‘grey’ streak, which he had sported earlier in the hit 2007 film, Chak De! India.

Shah Rukh mania grips Delhiites at Ferozeshah Kotla

NEW DELHI: Kolkata Knight Riders' owner Shah Rukh Khan on Thursday stole the show as spectators jostled for a glimpse of the Bollywood superstar during his team's IPL match against Delhi Daredevils. Shah Rukh got a rousing reception from the near capacity crowd at the Ferozeshah Kotla stadium as he entered the owner's arena near the team's dugout zone. It was a sultry summer night and the temperature soared with the arrival of Shah Rukh. The actor's presence left the spectators jostling for space to feast their eyes on the superstar. Shah Rukh, in his usual charming manner, blew kisses on the air towards the crowd, and won their hearts. KKR batsman Manoj Tiwary welcomed his team owner with a huge six as he smashed a full toss off Ajit Agarkar over deep square leg. Wearing a black tee and light denims, Shah Rukh was seen with his friend Vivek Khushlani at the owner's pad. Delhi boy but KKR skipper Gautam Gambhir also got a warm welcome from the crowd. Shah Rukh admitted that it has been tough three years for KKR in the IPL and hoped his side will do well this time around. In all the earlier three seasons in the IPL, KKR have failed to reach the semifinals. "It's been tough three years for us. Somehow we could not get the desired results. But we continued to do well and I hope this time we will do well," said Shah Rukh. He said his presence has proved lucky for the team on many occasions. "I am from Delhi and it's wonderful to be back at the Kotla grounds after a gap of 30 years. So I am happy to be here. My presence has been lucky for my team," he said. The Bollywood superstar said that the tournament is still wide open and no one can predict which team is going to win it. "Every team is giving 100 per cent. You can't say much at this stage. I only know that Kolkata are doing good job so far," he added.

'Ra.One' is progressing 24X7

It is a known fact that 'Ra. One' requires extensive post production as it is pretty heavy on VFX. So much so that quite a lot of outsourcing has happened to various companies that are located not just in USA and India but also London, Paris, China and Bangkok. "Though Shahrukh has an in-house VFX division in his production house, he is not relying on that alone to get all the results. In fact when most films would be content to have just one company, whether in India or abroad, to work on the visual effects, 'Ra. One' has gone much beyond", informs a source close to the actor. No wonder, film's director Anubhav Sinha is still trying to adjust himself to an all-day job where he is required to work with technicians from countries spread all across the time zones. "While first half of my day goes onto editing and visuals effects, second half has me working on the background score," says Anubhav, "Then in the night I have online meetings with people in America and Europe. The film's post production is a different challenge by itself. I am pretty much on the job 24 X7. The day I take some rest, it comes on a premium."

Its time to Move On for KolKata

Kolkata is known for its love for sport be it football or be it Cricket or any sport, that is what we have seen so far, and 12 th april night they prove it again by coming in big numbers to watch KKR vs DC ipl4 T20 match, to support their home team KolKata Knight Riders. Of course the numbers of people were less than we have expected but it was around 70 % of capacity. Considering the capacity of the Edan Garden it was quite good. But the absence of the legend Saurabh Ganguly in public was quite visible and it is understandable too but not a bright sign for the future of sports in KolKata, Ganguly has been a legend player & captain of India for long time, he took the command of Indian cricket when Indian cricket was hanging between clouds of fixing and uncertainties, at that time He comes and took Indian cricket from that place to the top at 2003 world cup final. Today India is No.1 team in test, No.1 in ODIs & World Champions, Ganguly & other seniors gave that believe in Indian youngsters that they can become world champion, they have the capablities and talent, Ganguly started the revolution in Indian cricket & Mahendra Singh dhoni is taking it to the top. In this journey Kolkata had been always behind him to support, in this journey for some people Ganguly has been the inspiration to come and watch cricket, be it in Team India or be it later KKR which is quite understandable seeing their love for ganguly but at the same time this section of people forgot that cricket not only cricket but every sports have its hard rules which no one can skip or ignore for so long, there is a limit for everything, one has to stop somewhere around. Ganguly was known as a winning captain throughout his career in Team India and it was expected with KKR too, but things went wrong terribly for KKR and as being the captain of KKR went for Saurabh too rest is history no KKR fans want to remember. Before saying good bye to international cricket everyone knows SG was struggling a lot on the field, He scored lots of runs to support him but that SG was nowhere around which we were use to see, It was SG’s hard working nature which was motivating him to keep hanging there but it was painful to see your fav batsman on the field struggling to play his shots, every time he has to come on the field to prove that he still can play, the indication was clear that was time for SG to sign off to cricket but he took it little far away. After Ganguly joined KKR no doubt he was scoring runs, he has been the top run scorers from KKR in few seasons of IPL, for a class where SG belongs it was no surprising to see him scoring runs, but he was struggling in the same time for scoring these runs which was not a good sign for KKR, SG was playing for KKR in his extended like career which was not good for a legend, in between we can not blame SG for all others were responsible for same. And for a captain no matter how bad or good he has performed in the end result matters which never come in SG’s way. In cricket one day you have to say good bye to it, it’s the reality if someone don’t say, cricket will say itself, be it Kapil Dev, Sunil Gavskar or Anil Kumble. Anil kumble is the best example of what a cricketer should do and how a cricketer should finish his career, today if you bring Anil Kumble on the field he will strike again but he sign off his career at the top of his game. And the same way SG have to accept the fact of cricket. There is a section of people who loves SG have to understand this fact & respect it otherwise they are simply ruining the respect of SG’s in the heart of Indians. On the other side KKR had no option rather than starting from the scratch, the anger of people ( some section) is understandable but not mature to support in any case, People should understand that everything does not end with SG, this attitude of people if it is a big section of total will ruin the future of young players from Kolkata, there are many young players from Kolkata are playing for KKR, they are future of sports, they need your support, if you don’t support them they are not going to make it to the top and it is not a healthy thing. Its not only KKR, everyone else be it any other IPL franchises or BCCI selection committee everyone will think twice before picking any player from Kolkata because of this kind of immatureness, and the result you can think of.   On the positive side which is the bigger section of people will keep supporting their young players, which was clearly shown in the match KKR vs DC. This is the right time for SG to come up & support young players. If he comes up & support them it will be great gesture for young players playing there. If he decides to stay back & lets the things happening around which some immature section of people are calling revenge of Kolkata than it will be like a win where in which you are going to lost everything , the young players will blame you for years to come. We hope SG would not want it to happen and he will come up, if he won’t come up than it will be unfortunate thing. On a positive note let’s hope KKR will do better this time & we know win can change everything in any sports. And Its time to move on for Kolkata to produce another Saurabh Ganguly from KolKata otherwise it will not be good for sports in Kolkata. “Change is the rule of universe those who don’t change, don’t exists”
