Karan Johar to ditch Shahrukh for My Name Is Khan

When Shah Rukh Khan gave the dates he had reserved for Karan Johar’s Khan to Aditya Chopra for Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, fellow actor Aamir Khan came into the picture.

It has been reported in an Indian daily that Karan Johar wasn’t happy when his good friend Shah Rukh delayed his film for Aditya and resorted to dump him altogether… replacing him with fellow actor and big time rival Aamir Khan. The idea of approaching Aamir for the centrepiece role in Khan came to Karan after hot actress Kajol suggested it to him. Apparently, Kajol was also upset that Shah Rukh had gone to the Yash Raj camp to rescue them from the doldrums of consecutive flops.

However, Karan decided not to take this desperate measure and admitted a Dharma defeat. He will now work with Shah Rukh and Kajol towards the end of the year.

What are your thoughts on this huge revelation… do you feel that Shah Rukh was wrong to ditch a good friend like Karan Johar, who has never made a movie without him, for Aditya Chopra… or do you think Shah Rukh made the right decision? Would you have loved to see Aamir working with Karan or not? Please use the comments section below for your feedback.

Rs100 Crores For Rights Of "My Name Is Khan"

The cinema revenue approaching again billion, the music sales bring an increasing number of foreign market booms, the satellite rights explode - so it is really no wonder why the total is so high that Eros Entertainment now Karan Johar for the rights of his new film "My name is Khan" will pay: Rich 100 crores (Rs. 1 billion). Actually, a reason for Karan, this tempting offer - the other 75 crores for the Abhi produced by him / Priyanka / John film includes - to assume there is not the tradition in Yashraj, since the beginning of Dharma Productions distributes its films.

However seem Yash Chopra and Aditya after a weak 2007 No 175 crores for Karan Johars films ready to have. The Eros-offer seems almost unausschlagbar - unless Karan Johar sets out on his friendship with the Chopras worth more than the 1.75 billion of Eros. The shortfalls are likely, however, they celebrated with "Om Shanti Om" but just the world's most successful Bollywood film. With "OSO" the film brought home a net import of nearly 1.25 billion rupees.

The filming of "My Name is Khan" with Shahrukh Khan in the lead role has not yet begun, but the struggle for the rights billion is already erupted.
