Shahrukh is known for being brand ambassador for anything and everything. I’ve listed a few of his ads before, there may be some repeats in here, but here are 8 of the best I’ve been able to find (I make no promises about these being the best in existence, because I haven’t seen every SRK ad ever).
Do you know what they have in common? Well, not a lot. But there is Indian industry news creeping out which makes me sit up and go “Hey! I just heard this in the American industry about Matt Damon!”

Kahaani 2 trailer out today! And Rock On 2 trailer out yesterday, but I’m not as interested in that one.
Once again, rediff comes through with the interesting in depth interview. And we get to learn all sorts of interesting things about the film industry and AR Rahman and SHAHRUKH!
I did top 11 movies a couple days ago, I’m going to go slightly different today, and do top nine performances. Even if the movie as a whole doesn’t hold together, or even if it is so brilliant all around you never noticed what Shahrukh was doing, here are his greatest performances as an actor.
I’m just getting kind of bored with reporting these ADHM updates. And all the other news items aren’t really exciting me either. So I am going to mush them altogether into one huge post that covers everything!

So much more excited about the Dear Zindagi trailer! Partly because it is just the second one, whereas ADHM is now on, what, the 513th trailer? Remember how excited I was back when there were just a couple ADHM trailers? Yeah, that’s worn off by now.
I finally watched Alai Payuthey! After putting it off for years and years and years and years and years. Because I love Saathiya, and I didn’t want to risk having it spoiled. But turns out, they are two distinctly different movies! Although still similar to Saathiya, so this is going to be kind of a combined review. I talked about some of these differences a little already when I reported on the OK Jaanu/OK Kanmani remake thing.
A bit of a tricky one. I feel like I can’t just ignore it, but I’m also not sure I really know him well enough to do a good post. If he were a real life person, he would be one that I just make 2 dozen chocolate chip cookies and a card for his birthday, because everyone likes cookies. Not like a good friend that I actually make something real for (oh! That reminds me, my best friend’s birthday is in a few weeks, I have to get to work!). So I’ll do the blog post equivalent of 2 dozen cookies, and just throw together a dozen reasons I love him.
Hey, it’s Prabhas’ birthday! I’ll have to put up a post about it in a second. But, more importantly, his birthday present is a first look at Baahubali 2! So, let’s see what we can somehow discern from it.
Okay, favorite songs, favorite fanvids, favorite photos, saddest facts, happiest facts, time for a big one! Top 11 movies (was going to be 10, but I couldn’t decide what to drop, so I moved it up a day)!
A few days back I reported that rumor had it Mahira would be replaced in Raees, or at least the producers were investigating finding a different actress. One of the commentators pointed out that this wasn’t a very reliable report, which I agree with, but it was in Bollywoodhungama, which means that if it was wrong, at least they would give a detailed follow-up. Which they now have!
Well, I guess if you give people everything they want, they will give you the one small thing you ask for in return.
For the 16th I did song videos, for the 15th I did fan videos, for the 14th I did photos, and yesterday for the 13th I did unlucky sad facts. Today, to balance that, 12 happy facts!
This ADHM news has me depressed, so I thought I would throw in some nice happy news items. Well, “news” items.
I LOVED this movie! This is going to be my new happy making comfort food film every time I get down. Everyone is happy and good and does good happy things and has good happy things happen to them. And even if something bad does happen, not to worry! You’ll just get another chance in your next life!
Kind of a downer topic, I know. But I felt like there should be some actual content, not just happy videos and pictures!
I was debating whether it was worth it to try to research and summarize everything that happened with the release of My Name is Khan, for reference with the release drama of ADHM. And then I discovered, I could just link to other people who have already done that!

In my last few posts, I’ve mentioned how the ADHM issue isn’t quite the same as My Name is Khan yet, because the government and police haven’t weighed in and picked a side. That is no longer the case.
So, this is the movie that everyone is like “The best movie of all time!”? So far, I’m not seeing it. A good movie certainly, probably a very good movie. I’m just not having my mind BLOWN by what I am seeing.
