Is Shah Rukh Khan’s injury more serious?

Shah Rukh Khan has once again got injured about which we had reported to you earlier. It is not the first time that SRK is injured. But every time he is virtually ignoring the injury and this time is also no different. There is no doubt that Shah Rukh is putting up a brave face.
Farah Khan has said about Shah Rukh Khan’s injury that he is putting up a face that the injury is a very minor one. There is another reason for SRK to play down his injury. He does not want the shooting schedules to be affected.
Apart from his previous shoulder injury, there is also the knee injury that SRK has to deal with. Speaking about his injury, Farah said that if it weren’t for SRK, any other actor would have wanted to take rest.

However, the shooting of the film with Farah would resume soon and there would only be low passion scenes so that SRK might not have to put in too much of physical energy.

Is the end of the game for Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif?

Would you believe it that Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif aren’t even talking to each other? Looks like the fairy tale is over for the two Bollywood stars. The two were seen returning to India, separately after spending their holidays in the United States.
It looks like the two went through some differences on the trip and things are looking sour for the two at the moment. What’s more, the two are even maintaining some sort of distance even on the sets of the film that they are currently shooting with each other.
Ranbir and Katrina are currently busy with the shooting of Anurag Basu’s Jagga Jasoos. However, the same kind of closeness is missing from the two of them at the moment. But how big the differences are, is still unknown and it may take time to know it.

In the meantime, that will be great for some rumormongers to go around taking the advantage of the situation. But we hope that it’s just a passing difference between Ranbir and Katrina as is common between two love birds.
