13 years Swadesh: Director Reveals Aamir Khan's role in SRK's Swadesh. See pics

-
Shah Rukh Khan-starrer Swades had an Aamir Khan connection. Director Ashutosh Gowariker reveals it after 13 years.

Marking 13 years of his acclaimed film, Swades, filmmaker Ashutosh Gowarikar shared throwback photos from the sets of the movie and they are truly rare for they show Aamir Khan and film’s lead Shah Rukh in the same frame. Aamir and SRK have never worked together.

The photos show Aamir, SRK and Ashutosh on the muhurat of the movie that also starred Gayatri Joshi. Sharing the pictures, Ashutosh wrote, “Thank you for your immense LOVE and REMEMBERING #13YearsOfSwades Here are a couple of really special. UNRELEASED stillls from the Mahurat Day! @aamir_khan @iamsrk #SunitaGowariker Also, my experience of #1YearOfTwitter has been EXCEPTIONAL!!”

Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan pose with Swades director Ashutosh Gowarikar.


Aamir was shooting for Mangal Pandey at that time. In the photos, Aamir can be seen with the clapperboard, which makes it -- tenuously -- the closest the two Khans came to working together in a film.

Swades completed 13 years on Sunday and interestingly, SRK’s youngest son AbRam performed on a song from the film at his school’s annual function on the same day. Dressed as a star, the four-year-old danced to Ye Taara Wo Taara. The entire Khan family – daddy Shah Rukh, mum Gauri, elder brother Aryan and sister Suhana – were among the audience to cheer him on.

Before Swades, Ashuyosh had worked with Aamir on the Oscar nominated Lagaan and Baazi. Shah Rukh and the director had worked together in Circus, a TV show that had both as actors.

Currently, SRK is working on Aanand L Rai’s upcoming film that also stars Anushka Sharma and Aamir is shooting for Vijay Krishna Acharya’s Thugs of Hindostan along with Amitabh Bachchan, Fatima Sana Shaikh and Katrina Kaif.

Salman Khan Issued Supreme Court Notice On Acquittal In Chinkara Poaching Case Actor Salman Khan was today issued notice by the Supreme Court on an appeal by the Rajasthan government challenging his acquittal in two poaching cases. In July, the Rajasthan High Court found the 50-year-old actor not guilty of killing an endangered species of gazelle or chinkara in two separate incidents in 1998 while he was shooting a film in the desert state. The state government challenged his acquittal; it wants him to be imprisoned to serve the rest of his sentence - after being convicted in 2007 for hunting down and killing the chinkaras, he was awarded a one-year prison term and a five-year prison term respectively. He then spent a week in jail in Jodhpur before being granted bail. While finding him not guilty, the High Court had said there was no evidence to prove that the animals who were found dead were shot by Mr Khan's licensed gun. A key witness, the driver of the jeep that was us...

Tees Maar Khan Box Office Report/Review/Collections

Box Office Report of Tees Maar Khan: Tees Maar Khan Takes a Huge Opening at the box office but the reports about the film are negative Tees Maar Khan took a great opening at the box office across the country but the reports are not good. The film is a hit on the strength of its opening but whether it becomes a blockbuster is in doubt as collections in the evening at places could not keep up with its bombastic start in the morning. Saturday is a holiday which could help but Sunday will tell where the film is going. Another plus is two weeks of no competition. The other two releases of the week, Toonpur Ka Superrhero and Isi Life Mein had very dull collections and could not register at the box office due to the Tees Maar Khan wave.

Reaction of Nikunj Malik to Rahul Mahajan's Wedding With Dimpy Ganguly

Here is Nikunj Malik's Interview After the Swayamvar... Nikunj Mallik Mysteriously, Rahul Mahajan seemed like great marriage material to besotted young girls (or they put up a very good act, at any rate) on Rahul Dulhaniya Le Jayega. Nikunj Malik, one of the three finalists, decided to stop looking at him through rose-tinted glasses and is now rather vocal about her dislike. She says, “I feel Dimpy is perfect for Rahul as both have similar habits and lifestyles, which is not very acceptable to me. Though Rahul was quite interested in me, which was quite evident, I realised he’s not the kind of person I’d like to spend my life with.” A man never changes his spots, darling, so what possessed her to go for someone like Rahul? She says, “For the past two years, there has been no negative publicity about him. When at 35, a man wants to settle down and have a family, that worked for me. He is a nice man, but it’s obvious there is no visible improvement. It was the drinking, smoking and C...

Tees Maar Khan Falls Heavily On Monday in Box Office Collections

Tees Maar Khan fell heavily on Monday as it grossed only around 4.50 crore nett which is around 65% lower than its Friday business which was around 13 crore. All circuits fell across the board with Mumbai being worst at around 70% fall while East Punjab and CI recording smallest falls at around 60%. Okay, it's more than evident that TEES MAAR KHAN has emerged a tees maar disappointment. In terms of audience feedback. Also in terms of box-office numbers. The reactions to the film vary from achchi hain [a tiny minority] to theek hain [again, a minority] to mazaa nahin aaya [the majority has given it thumbs down]. The tremendous hype surrounding the film + Christmas period + extensive release strategy [the film was released at a record 2100 screens in India] + escalated ticket rates at most cineplexes should've ensured a bountiful Rs. 45 cr. to Rs. 50 cr. nett opening for the film, but the weekend numbers [Rs. 38.25 cr. nett] clearly indicates that TEES MAAR KHAN hasn't lived ...

Arbaaz Khan Opens Up About His Separation From Wife Malaika Arora Khan Arbaaz Khan and Malaika Arora Khan, who decided to separate last year, have largely remained mum about their split. While many theories of what led to the separation did the rounds (the most cited one being Malaika's affair with Arjun Kapoor) neither of the two said anything about it in the media although Arbaaz did take several digs at his own marriage on Koffee With Karan. Now, in an interview with Deccan Chronicle, Arbaaz had quite a mature take on the impending divorce. He said, "Just because we're separating, doesn't mean we have to be worried about each other's equations. I have a child with her, so we have to have a cordial and a great relationship. We're very amicable with the split we had. I'm close to her side of the family, something that you can all see." He said that his relationship with Malaika's family goes back a long time. "My ass...
