Sanjay, Farah - calls - SRK fly's in

The one actor who has been quite particular about his gang of friends is always ready to treat friends special. So when Sanjay Leela Bhansaali and Farah Khan invited Shah Rukh Khan for the audio and poster release of 'Shirin Farhad Ki To Nikal Padi', SRK was more than happy to fly in for the event.

SRK's bonding with Sanjay Leela Bhansaali started with his movie 'Devdas' the one which was ranked among top 10 movies of the millenium (news here). The friendship was marked as quite unnatural as one was the King of romance and other was the same of classics. But the duo has kept the relationship warm and although SRK did not get to work again with Sanjay their friendship still continued through the years. So when Sanjay's sister Bela is making a directorial debut with SFKTNP, Sanjay decided to call in SRK for the audio and poster launch.

There were more reasons for SRK to come in as his best buddy Farah Khan was making her debut into acting with the movie and for this occasion, SRK was insisting to be there, and it is said that SRK had cancelled all his commitments to be part of the event.

This is the best launch a newcomer could have ever gotten.”

Shah Rukh along with Boman and Farah performed a jig on stage, where the megastar played Raj of DDLJ, Farah played Simran and Boman played Amrish Puri.

"I think love can happen at any age. There is no right time and right place for love. It can happen any time," said Shah Rukh Khan.

"We have seen love stories made with young teenagers but this one is different. I have seen the posters and promo of this film and I really loved it. It is a marvellous love story. I am sure this film will rock. I am sure people will connect with this film," he added.

Talking further about Farah, he says "She is one of the most finest and talented director we have with us. I thank Farah for giving me some nicest moment in her films."

In midst of all these celebrations, Sanjay Leela Bhansali was not present, and the reason for that was ... (read more here )
