hmmm....

SRK is a good actor --a bit melodramatic and theatrical if you ask me compared to European actors (but that is prob. the director`s fault not his)--but good looking? Come on! Give me a break. He is short and dark and doesn`t even have very finely structured features. If he wasn`t famous these same ladies like miss sameena wouldn`t even give him the time of day. He looks like someone`s naukar man!

Ms. Sameena Khan:

I congratulate you on the nice article about KBC.

However I wish to point out the following errors in the article.

1. The contestant in question did embrace SRK in the beginning when her name was announced
as the winner among ten contestants.

2. The show in question was on Thursday, February 01, 2007 and not on Wednesday,
January 31, 2007.

3. The Prize money was not 25 lakhs, it was half of that amount.

Hugging is done best when it is done spontaneously.

Thinking “should I or shouldn’t I” messes it up!

I mean, come on, it’s not like Shah Rukh Khan is asking the ladies to take off clothes and jump into a Jacuzzi with him! And Sameena, now that the hubby has put up the challenge – “you will never be able to do it” – hey, it’s all the more reason to do it! Who wants to hear for the rest of the life that “you are so predictable” or “I can read you like a book”! Nothing could be worse than that – certainly not a teeny, weenie, little bit of a hug!

I doubt the mullah would mind – if he does, one can always threaten to send him a hugger for himself – your hubby, of course! That should quiet him – unless, unless, unless,….

Unless he LIKES hugging men! (In which case, scratch this thought. (Your hubby may mind – unless he is a tree-hugger, or something!))

Indians in general need to be more upfront with their emotions unlike the present lot – which usually appears severely constipated in that department.

I love Shah Rukh Khan! What a guy! I think he is definitely on to something here. I think I should write to him and ask him to hug you – show or not!! Come to think of it, we could pay his charity organization a fee for the hugs and even arrange a special discount for chowk ladies (perhaps even the gents! (Hey, if I can get some commissions, I could hug him myself!))

SRK has been doing these things (hugging etc) since last 18 years.....mullahs have said anything till now. Why bring mullahs into this anyway?

There was this interesting girl from Haryana who deflated Shah Rukh`s baloon effectively.
When as usual SRK asked her to say ``kaho mujhay galay lagaa lo``.....she replied,`` No, mujhay tmharay galay lagnay ka koyi shauq nahiN hai, I will only say I quit``
SRK`s face was only to be seen at that time....he then asked girl`s mother to do that and she obliged.
