The Indian superstar and Bollywood icon Shahrukh Khan (Shah Rukh Khan) has taken leave from Berlin and has now back in Mumbai. Thus, the shooting of the new Bollywood sequels "Don 2 - The Chase Continues" completed in Berlin and probably lasted not very long.
The second part of the excellent film "Don" is titled "Don 2 - The Chase Continues" Starting in December of next year in the Indian cinema, said it was 'Don 2' with Shahrukh Khan and Priyanka Chopra not have any German movie star appointment is - unfortunately.
After the shooting of 'Don 2' in Berlin went back to the Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan to Mumbai and was photographed at the airport including Mumbai from some fans, and of course, paparazzi were staying at the airport upon arrival or return of Shahrukh Khan.
Besides the beautiful Priyanka Chopra and Shahrukh Khan is known to be in the sequel to the film 'Don' directed by Farhan Akhtar have known actor Boman Irani, Kunal Kapoor Lara Dutta to do, of course, may not. Shahrukh Khan is of course the role of 'Don' take, while one may see Priyanka Chopra in her role of "Gypsy." Boman Irani plays the character Vardhaan and Om Puri will come as Mallik to the canvas.
The actor Arjun Rampal is the sequel, Don 2 - The Chase Continues "not be of the party, but he wanted Shahrukh Khan, Farhan Akhtar and all other actors, success and fun with" Don 2 "which is a shame some fans of course found that not Arjun Rampal is the sequel.
Don 2 is the sequel to the box-office His "Don - The Chase Begins Again", which has been this film in 2006 were, a sort of remake of the classic "Don" in 1978. The second part of modern 'Don 2 - The Chase Continues "with Priyanka Chopra, Lara Dutta and Shah Rukh Khan is likely to be a blockbuster, because after" Don "look forward to taking many Bollywood fans to this sequel.
Per Twitter.com could hear from Shahrukh Khan yet that he is happy to be back in Mumbai and his family, while Shah Rukh Khan still - likeable as ever - mentioned that the image of the faces of his sleeping children of a the most beautiful events in life would be.
On 23 December 2011 Launches "Don 2 - The Chase Continues" in the Indian cinema and one can only hope that Lara Dutta, Priyanka Chopra and Shah Rukh Khan will soon be allowed to see in German cinemas. Shah Rukh Khan is back as Don and this should be missed at the end of next year, barely.
"Shah Rukh generously helped me financially" - Shailja Gupta
a much larger project 
How did you so much of Bollywood support. Tell us about it?
I get overwhelmed every time I talk about it. Special thanks to Mr. Shah Rukh Khan. I had worked with him ten years ago and we kept in touch. Last year we met when he was in New York and he saw twenty minutes of the film and immediately offered to help me out. He asked me to come to India and then opened the doors to his production facility (Red Chillies Entertainment & VFX) I completed the film with the help of his team. He also generously helped me financially. Oscar winner Resul Pookuty helped me with the sound design and Vishal & Shekhar, Ram Sampath & Sagar Desai composed five songs. Shree Venkatesh Films (producers of films like Chokher Bali, Raincoat) stepped in and helped me release the film here.
You have music in different languages which have become very popular. How did you decide on that?
Since my characters are from different parts of India and I wanted to use music to showcase the different flavours of the characters. There are 9 songs in the soundtrack; they are in Hindi, English, Marwari, Tamil and French. Fortunately it adds a lot of character to my movie and gives authenticity to my characters. I have a fast road trip number, a jazz piece, a ghazal, romantic songs as well as an authentic Indian wedding dance number.
One of the key takes from the movie is that all 8 characters are fleshed out and the women are not short changed- how did you develop these characters.
They are all based loosely on all my friends. So, when someone sees this movie, they will appreciate the similarities, and empathize, and laugh with them because they are real and deal with issues that my audience has gone through at some point in their life.
Why is the movie in English?
The choice of language was just natural. Since it's a story about Indians who live in New York, in our daily lives we all speak mostly English with a bit of our mother tongue thrown in between. I have tried to emulate the realistic way of communication in the movie. In fact the characters speak English, Hindi, Tamil and a little bit of friend.
What next
I have 2 stories penned down. One is a very dark film and the other is a romantic comedy which can either be made here as another Independent film or as a Bollywood film. But right now I am not thinking about it till Walkaway release. I have been working non stop for 2 years now so I will take a short holiday before I jump into my next project

SRK makes history in China
From Berlin, where he is currently shooting for Farhan Akhtar's Don 2, Shah Rukh Khan will be headed to China for the premiere of My Name Is Khan (MNIK).
And this occasion will go down in history because no Indian film has been released in China in the last 30 years. Intense preparations are on for the premiere, tentatively scheduled for November 30 in Beijing.
Producer Karan Johar says, "It's an honour especially since China allows only the release of 20 foreign films a year. I can't remember when was the last time an Indian film was released there.
We must have done something right this time, no?" Karan is already planning Shah Rukh's clothes for the Beijing premiere. Though he's tightlipped about it, we did get to know that it'll be a fusion of ethinic Indian wear with a typical Chinese style.
Vijay Singh CEO of Fox-Star, whose team has been thrown into a flurry of activities by this sudden Chinese invitation, says, "The Chinese authorities are really hard on foreign films. To be asked to release Khan is an amazing honour."
Considering the limited time available to Karan Johar and Fox-Star, it seems more likely that the film would be subtitled in Chinese. But that shouldn't be an impediment for SRK; after all, his name is Khan.

SRK escapes freak accident in Berlin
King Khan has a penchant for doing his own stunts whether for Ra.One or Don 2. But this time the actor messed up during a car sequence.
Recently the superstar successfully jumped off a high building for a sequence for the movie, but this time luck wasn't on his side. Reportedly the actor smashed his car in a camera while shooting a wild action sequence for Farhan Akhtar's Don 2.
A source told Deccan Chronicle, "It was a car chase sequence where SRK had to drive the car with Priyanka sitting next to him. It was the body double of the actress while SRK was driving. However, the car went out of control and rammed straight into the camera, destroying it completely. Thankfully, no one was injured and a big mishap was averted. But, the broken camera resulted in losses worth lakhs."
"A gracious SRK immediately came out of the car and apologised to everyone around including Farhan. He also volunteered to pay for all the damages incurred. Then he thanked everyone around and God that he was not injured. Farhan called for a break to let everyone's nerves settle down before resuming shooting," added the source.
Well SRK we hope your stunt spirit doesn't get dampened after this incident!

SRK a good-hearted don in ‘Don 2’
The industry is flying with rumors that Shahrukh's character in 'Don 2' is poles apart from the previous film. In 'Don 2 - The Chase Continues', the Bollywood Badshah is essaying the role of the head of an organized crime and drug-dealing family and will not be portrayed negatively.
Speaking of SRK's role in 'Don 2', the producers stated at the press conference on Friday that his character is not of a typical gangster.
Meanwhile, talking about his character in 'Don 2', SRK stated, "Don is very, very beautiful behind the dark, mean exterior and you just have to get to know him."
Incidentally, Farhan Akhtar's 'Don 2' does have elements of style and themes of a Bond film.
Farhan is inspired by Berlin's architecture
It's certainly going to be a tight schedule for the cast and crew of 'Don 2' in Berlin, as Farhan wanted to shoot the entire film for 45 days in the German capital.
Interestingly, at the press conference in Berlin, Farhan spoke that his inspiration to make the film in the German capital was because he is completely in awe with the architecture of the city.
"When I was here, I was very taken by the architecture of the city. It is a city that represented to me a new world," stated the director, who also revealed that his plan to make the film there happened three years ago.
King Khan awestruck with Berlin
It's not only Farhan who is mesmerized by the city, even SRK can't stop singing praises about the city.
The actor, who has a huge fan following in Germany, had openly stated at the press conference that he loves the city.
"I am just happy to be in Berlin. I love it. If you told me to stand up on a tourist bus and dance, I would do it," stated the Badshah of Bollywood.
"It is one of the most beautiful cities I have ever see... I have been here for two weeks and I don't feel I am working," further added the 'Don 2' star.

SRK’s accident on sets of Don 2
Like all heroes, Shah Rukh Khan too likes to do his own stunts. Especially when he is trying to outdo Rajinikanth. Apparently, Shah Rukh, who successfully managed to jump off a high rise, had an accident in Berlin, while shooting a wild action sequence for Farhan Akhtar's Don 2.
Our source from the sets said, "It was a car chase sequence where SRK had to drive the car with Priyanka sitting next to him. It was the body double of the actress while SRK was driving. However, the car went out of control and rammed straight into the camera, destroying it completely. Thankfully, no one was injured and a big mishap was averted. But, the broken camera resulted in losses worth lakhs. A gracious SRK immediately came out of the car and apologised to everyone around including Farhan. He also volunteered to pay for all the damages incurred. Then he thanked everyone around and God that he was not injured. Farhan called for a break to let everyone's nerves settle down before resuming shooting."
It is ironic that this accident should happen because SRK had posted pictures of himself jumping off the high rise a few days ago on Twitter. Shaayad kisiki nazar lag gayi, what say Shah Rukh?

"Every time I come here it's very cold and then I feel the warmth of lovely German bodies against me ... I'm really happy to work in this atmosphere," said the superstar at a press conference in a chilly, drizzly Berlin.
"The city is one of the most beautiful cities I have ever seen ... I have been here for two weeks and I don't feel I'm working," he added.
"I'm just happy to be in Berlin. I love it. If you told me to stand up on a tourist bus and dance, I would do it."
Khan is on location in Berlin to shoot his new film, "DON-2", billed by producers as a "Bollywood version of Bond."
The film features Khan in his old role as Don, the "unbeatable, unstoppable, smartest, smoothest gangster in the Asian drug world." Viewers are promised "an edge-of-the-seat thriller, with a riveting plot and breathtaking action."
"DON-2" is being shot for 50 days in prominent venues in the German capital, including the stadium that hosted the 1936 "Hitler Olympics" and the East Side Gallery, a long, graffiti-strewn section of the Berlin Wall.
Director Farhan Akhtar said he hoped to introduce a German audience to the Bollywood genre.
"We're not holding back as far as the Bollywood punches are concerned. We are throwing them all. There are many films shot in London, Australia, the US. But it's important to showcase new places. Berlin had it all."
The overall budget of the film was 12 million euros (17 million dollars) of which just over half was spent in Berlin. German authorities provided around two million dollars to support the film.
Known as "King Khan", the 44-year-old actor is one of the most popular in Bollywood, with millions of loyal fans. He was once nominated one of the world's 50 most important people in the world by Newsweek magazine.
The city of Berlin, already a magnet for film producers, hopes that Khan's star power will encourage other Bollywood productions to be filmed in the capital, in turn boosting tourism from India's burgeoning middle class.
Recent film stars in Berlin include Brad Pitt in Quentin Tarantino's "Inglourious Basterds", Tom Cruise in "Valkyrie" and Kate Winslet in "The Reader" and the city hopes to cash in on Bollywood's pulling power.
The chief executive of the "visitBerlin" campaign, Burkhard Kieker, said: "DON-2 will be our advertising campaign for India."
"With this film we want to enthuse a multimillion audience for the destination of Berlin and, in this way, secure our breakthrough on the Indian market."
Khan said he was certain the Berlin authorities would get their wish.
"After the film is released, I fully believe that many Indians will come and deservedly so, because Berlin is so wonderful. You guys are going to a big problem getting all the Indians to go back. They will be everywhere."
"You don't know what you have let yourselves in for."
"DON-2" is the sequel to the 2006 "Don: The Chase Begins Again", itself a remake of the Bollywood classic "Don". It is due to premier in cinemas at the end of 2011.

On a break
While Shah Rukh has
requested a three-day break from his producers Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar to visit Rome for the film festival and celebrate his birthday with his family, KJo is taking a short break from shooting his TV show Koffee With Karan 3 to be there. Later, the group will travel back to Berlin together where KJo and Gauri have planned a party with close friends (the cast and crew of Don 2).

SRK's fashion fundas
On men's clothing
'I really believe men don't have much choice. What's there apart from T-shirts, jeans, pants and shoes? Even as far as accessories are concerned, men should only wear a watch, and maybe a ring. Don't adorn yourself. I'm not too metrosexual about dressing up. I don't like the idea of thinking, 'What should I wear at that party tomorrow?'
On his fashion quotient
I'm not a very fashionable person. I believe that fashion isn't about looks, but about being able to look after yourself physically. I'm 45 now, but people tell me that I have the body of a 17-year-old. So if I look after myself, whatever I wear will look kind of nice on me.
Mostly, I don't choose what I wear. I let the designers choose, because they know what suits me better than I do. I don't even do trials. My favourite designer Naresh, who's been designing for me for 20 years now, says he's done only three trials of mine so far. And my designers have always given me the creative freedom to wear clothes the way I want to.
On his comfort clothing
I honestly believe that you can lead your whole life wearing a t-shirt and jeans — you don't need anything more than that. And a black suit with a white shirt. Yes, you should have variation in your wardrobe, but if it were up to me, I'd always choose a black suit with a white shirt! Even in my films, I make it a point to see that the clothes aren't too proper, because I don't choose my clothes at night before sleeping. I just pick something from my wardrobe half-an-hour before I leave home.'
On filmi fashion
For films, my take on style is, 'Don't take me out of the character'. Even when I'm shooting songs, the clothes have to be in sync with who the character is. He can't suddenly change into something else for a song! I tell my designers, 'Don't make me wear something fashionable. Make me wear something that will become fashionable after the film.'
SRK's Fashion Don'ts
I'm not much of a clothes person, despite being the Belmonte model. My designers know that I'm very careless with clothes. I hardly ever see the costumes before I reach the sets. I usually wear what they ask me to, but I still tell them to keep an alternate costume, just in case. For example, if I'm wearing a tuxedo, I'll tell them to keep an option for the shirt.
No drainpipes (skinny trousers or jeans): I have a motto — 'dead before drainpipes'. I'll never wear them.
Mismatched socks and shirts: I get disturbed if I don't have socks that match the colour of my shirt.
Ill-fitting jeans: I only wear one particular denim fit. I have 100 pairs of jeans in that precise fitting. So if someone tells me my character in the movie wears jeans of a different fit, I will not do that movie!
No boots: I personally don't like wearing boots — I prefer sneakers or shoes. But if the character requires boots, I don't mind.
No churidaars: In films, I never wear churidaars. Instead, I wear salwars. But again, if they tell me to wear it, as a last option, I will.
Shahrukh Khan being idolized in Break Ke Baad
Shahrukh Khan, king of romance, is being idolized in Kunal Kohli's "Break Ke Baad". His life has been inspiring to numerous aspiring artists.
