Chennai Express (VIII)- Reviews/BO Updates!

Edited by ....Poojie.... - 10 years ago

Therefore, recently when there was the expected brouhaha about Aamirs my dog is called SRK comment, it hardly surprised me. As have the unpredictable Salman Khans bitter tirade against SRK , Akshay Kumars rather pathetic attempt to live under delusions of grandeur that he is supposedly the new King, and even the great Amitabh Bachchans rather unwarranted sarcastic digs at SRKs quiz show. Even Manoj Kumar , resurrected by a calculated frown on his forehead joined the anti-SRK bandwagon. Bollywood is a dirty rat-house despite the steaming coffee with Karan, and synthetic smiles. Its an insecure world out there, living a paranoid existence.

They may anoint him as King Khan but strangely enough SRK may be a victim of the fact that he will be perpetually perceived as an outsider by the grand old family-networks that still strangulate free enterprise in Bollywood. For many, the short-sized slender cigarette smoking middle-class Delhi-wallah was an alien intrusion . The fact that he usurped the coveted throne, and has steadfastly refused to give an inch for over a decade, has clearly rattled Bollywood rivals. I think no one anticipated such impregnable , enduring dominance from brand SRK. Like Sachin Tendulkar in cricket , the man has been extraordinarily consistent. Box-office success and acting awards , hosting quiz shows and award functions, a slew of commercial ads, jet-setting with corporate honchos, Madame Tussauds , Temptations road show, book -releases, the IPL franchise-ownership , a self-owned production company and an animation studio. Lunch with the Gandhis. He has even made doing his Dard-e-disco at private weddings a revenue stream. Other fellow actors, have quietly followed. With increased corporatisation and free capital inflows, the financial stakes in Bollywood have become astronomically high. SRK has single-handedly created the entertainment industrys financial capital warehouse; both working funds and huge profits. Now everyone seeks a lions share. Its pure financial arithmetic.

But I think what has unnerved most about SRK is the fact that behind that I am the best macho line, he is remained the simple old Delhi wallah. He has not beaten up his sultry wife Gauri, and his sister is not filing a criminal suit against him. He is a protective, indulgent father, and a trustworthy friend. These are all rare commodity traits in our glittery stardust world. Underneath the six-abs pack he remains a small-town boy in a world he knows only essentially worships the last man standing on a Friday opening.

I thin SRKs hidden biggest strength comes from his own internal pain. The fact that his parents died when he was still young. That his mind-numbing success will be forever elusive to them. I think only those who have no parents will understand his emotional-mental construct.. I think he lets his passions overflow , his energies double-up, his character assume new dimensions whenever he gets in front of those whirring cameras. Its a cathartic moment. He lets it go.

Hi 

Feel bad for SRK, While the other actors pretend to be what they are not and conveniently get the "Good" tags. SRK is always misunderstood and is being portrayed as cunning and manipulative.😵
