Salmaan Katrina together for 'Ek Tha Tiger' - Pics

Shahrukh wrote & composed item song for 'Always Kabhi Kabhi'

After displaying his vocal skills in the song "Apun Bola Tu MerI Laila" in " Josh", Shah Rukh Khan is once again crooning in his home production "Always Kabhi Kabhi".

Sources in Bollywood say that SRK has also contributed as a music composer and penned down few lines for an item number in his next film. SRK will also feature as an item boy for the same track which was shot at a lavish set in a suburban studio April end.

Red Chilies' film titled, "Always- Kabhi Kabhi" has been by anchor, radio jokey turned ad maker Roshan Abbas and the music is composed by Pritam Chakrobarty.

Sources say, "Both composer and filmmaker were stuck when SRK walked in and within no time the creative enzymes in the actor started following and a melody was conceived.
Shah Rukh also added some punch lines in the song giving it his trademark edginess".
"SRK is so spontaneous and lyrically strong that whenever we were stuck in a tune he instantly contributed with his creative inputs," says music director Pritam who has also worked with the actor during the making of "Billo".

The director Roshan Abbas concludes, "As you are aware SRK is immensely talented and has contributed in the production of the said item song. Pritam and I were hunting for a good track and it was SRK who created magic for us".

Imraan Khan no longer a good boy

When you think about Imran Khan — committed, loyal and 'good boy' are the words that pop into the head. Now after reading this bit of information, Imran's image will never be the same.

The actor has shot for a sex scene in his upcoming film Delhi Belly. For the first time ever in a Hindi film, an actor is shown going under the covers, and down on his girl. So far the intimate scenes usually meant the guy-on-top, but Imran Khan has dared to go 'down.'

No B-Town actor has done this before. A source from the unit confirms, "Yes, Imran has shot for the said scene with his on-screen girlfriend. This is the boldest scene he has done. Obviously, it is all under the covers, but you cannot miss the implication. I think even that is very daring by Bollywood standards." Imran confirms having done the scene but doesn't want to go into the details.

Thankyou showing good trending at boxoffice

Thank You is sustaining well at the box office. The film is strong in the Gujarat/Saurashtra belt as well as Delhi/UP. Even with the release of Dharti it was showing good numbers at some theatres of Punjab.

The third week business of the film was nearly on par with the third week of Yamla Pagla Deewana which has the best third week so far this year.

The fourth week of Thank You should bring in another 1.50 crore nett which will take the film near 45 crore nett business. This would have looked a tough task after less than 5 crore day one.

The film will hang around at the box office until Ready on 3rd June as it looks the best bet for single screens while multiplexes in Gujarat, Delhi/UP, East Punjab, CP Berar, CI and Rajasthan are also likely to keep it on for 1/2 shows daily. Thank You may finish at around 46.50 crore.
