Shahrukh Khan

In “My Name is Khan”, SRK is playing the character of Rizvan Khan. This person suffers from Asperger’s Syndrome, which is an autism disorder and is characterised by difficulties in social interaction and behaviour. Half of the film is a true story based on a couple’s life in LA. Karan bought the rights of the story from them.

For the role, Shah Rukh has to gain weight, and that is what he is doing currently. “The role requires me to have a fuller look,” said the actor who has plunged into his character already and is doing research on autism to see how complex these individuals are. “I am reading, watching documentaries, meeting people who are affected by autism and doctors who deal with it. It’s very unnerving and I salute parents who bring up children with any disorders,” said SRK.

Shibani Bhatija, the screenplay writer of the My Name Is Khan, has SRK detained in LA as a suspected terrorist because he is a Muslim and his impairment makes his behaviour suspicious.

Jimmy Shergill

Aamir Bashir, one of the cast members of Karan Johar’s latest venture ‘My Name Is Khan’ was denied US Visa recently. Due to this, he is unable to join the crew in USA.

Now he has been replaced by Jimmy Shergil. Jimmy Shergil has already worked with Shahrukh Khan in ‘Mohabbatein’.

Aamir Bashir was to play the role of Shah Rukh Khan’s younger brother in the film. Shahrukh Khan and Karan Johar are presently in Los Angeles and busy in shooting.

Now Jimmy Shergil is going to USA and will do the shooting in Los Angeles.

Actress Sonya Jehan, the grand daughter of singer-actress late Noor Jehan, will be seen playing the second lead in Karan Johar`s upcoming flick ‘My Name is Khan’.

The actress, who marked her debut with Akbar Khan`s ‘Taj Mahal’ was last seen in ‘Khoya Khoya Chaand’, is highly excited about working under a big banner.

She is reportedly playing an integral character, while Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol will be playing the main lead. SRK is apparently portraying an autistic character in the film which is being shot in Los Angeles.

Kajol is on a weight losing spree for her latest project with Karan Johar!.

“She couldn’t say no as she plays an NRI woman in the film and as per the look of her character she has to look thin. Hence she had to forego her binging habit and start with a special diet. She is currently in Los Angeles shooting for the film with her two good friends, Karan Johar and Shah Rukh Khan, ” says a unit hand.

Apart from keeping a tab on the calorie intake, Kajol is sweating it out at the gym too to cut that extra flab. Interestingly, SRK had stopped working out as his six pack abs look was not required in Aditya Chopra’s Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi. As far as his look in My Name Is Khan is concerned, he plays an NRI Muslim man here and is required to look lean.

Niranjan Iyenger – the dialogue writer of films like Madhur Bhandarkar’s FASHION, Karan Johar’s KABHI ALVIDA NA KEHNA and KAL HO NA HO, has turned lyricist with Karan Johar’s latest My Name is Khan.

He has written two outstanding ’sufi’ based compositions for the most awaited movie of 2009. The lyrics have already been put to tunes and as per a very reliable film personality who has had the privilege of listening to them, they are simply awesome. Both the songs will be used in the background.

Well, we are sure that the talented and now versatile Niranjan Iyenger, who has proved himself as an able dialogue writer, will surely hit it off as a lyricist too. And he has got the perfect launch vehicle, a Karan Johar film starring Bollywood’s global super star, Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol!

Following the terrorist attacks in Mumbai, some Muslim members from the cast and crew of the film have been denied US visas.

This includes SRK’s personal staff and also actor Aamir Bashir who has acted in ‘A Wednesday’.

The buzz is that post the Mumbai terror attacks the US consulate has become extremely cautious about issuing visas and apparently despite making them understand that the people concerned were leaving for a shoot, the authorities didn’t budge.

The rejected members have been left with no choice but to submit fresh applications and praying for better luck this time around.
