“Shahrukh Khan is the biggest movie star in the world” crooned people in Germany, and no there were not just Indians who were saying it but white skinned phirangs who gushed and cheered the King Khan as he went to Berlin to promote his recent and biggest blockbuster after Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge, Om Shanti Om. OSO is SRK’s second biggest hit ever, second only to DDLJ.
Reports in NDTV and other news channels shows enthusiastic supporters and PYTs from Germany rooting for Shahrukh Khan. Om Shanti Om has become a huge success story in India as well as abroad. The girls there were singing to the tunes of “Tujhe Dekha Toh Jana Sanam” and “Om Shanti Om” in cute German accent. The mass hysteria that King Khan commanded in Germany bears testimony to the fact that Shahrukh Khan is a national star as well as a huge star in countries like Germany, France, UK, USA and Gulf countries. It is a thing of pride and honor for India as the biggest entertainer of India is also the greatest star in the world. A German journalist stated in media that SRK is as popular as Pope, but sexier! When Shahrukh Khan was quizzed about him being popular than Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt, SRK in his usual trademark wit said, “That is all fine but I am paid much lesser than them. “ Makes sense actually.
