Om Shanti Om

The SRK magic is back with Om Shanti Om which will be releasing this diwali.

Director Farah Khan said she would be ‘re-introducing’ SRK. If the promos of the movie and the song Dard-E-Disco are anything to go by, she has definitely kept her promise and more!

"Well, full credit to Shah Rukh for attempting something like this which showcases him in an altogether different 'avtaar'", talks Farah fondly for her superstar friend, "The idea was to give him a much leaner look, while refraining from making it all look artificial."


The movie which deals with reincarnation will have the stunning Deepika Padukone starring opposite King Khan.

 Director Farah Khan says that the item number in her forthcoming film Om Shanti Om that stars Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone in the lead roles, is the mother of all item numbers.

Speaking to reporters Deepika said, “Since it is a 70's film I saw older films, my inspirations have been Madhubala, Hema Malini and Helen . I am not here to ape them, but since I was not born then I would like to get a feel of that era. I am very lucky to have got a break with Shah Rukh Khan as I have idolised him, and since 'Farah' is a female director and has been around for 17 years that made things very easy.”

When quizzed about the experience of working with King Khan, Deepika said, “On the first day of the shoot he came and gave me a pat on the shoulder and said we all are with you.”
