Watch out for RNBDJ it's next DDLJ in the making



If insiders from Yash Raj Films camp are to be believed, Aditya Chopra and Shah Rukh Khan have yet another DDLJ up their sleeves. They may be keeping a low profile on RNBDJ, especially in the aftermath of the terror attack, but the kind of subject they have in hand, the movie is bound to make waves by the time first weekend comes to a close.

Says an insider, 'RNBDJ is a relatively smaller film, both in grandiose and duration, when compared to films directed by Aditya Chopra or Yash Chopra. However, the film's strength is its subject and script which is going to please everyone. Ladies especially would fall totally for RNBDJ which has a great feel good quotient to it.'

But why a low profile so far?

'YRF has traditionally kept their films low profile. And same was in the case of CHAK DE INDIA too which has been their biggest grosser in the current times. They want audience to explore the film and trust me when I say that the film would invite audiences in hordes', says the insider confidently.

Does it mean a repeat audience is in the offering?

'Pretty much so', says a trade expert who has a fair idea about where the film is headed towards, 'RNBDJ's budget has been set in a medium range but if there is a film that comes with a potential of breaking OM SHANTI OM record of 80 crores odd, it is RNBDJ. It's a matter of the film taking a very good, if not exceptional, opening this weekend. Once that happens, I am sure there is no stopping the film from crossing the 100 crores net mark just from India. The vibes are that great.'

Well, we are waiting to see that happen, especially after SINGH IS KINNG and GOLMAAL RETURNS being the last money spinners that Bollywood witnessed!

ShahRukh Khan is now a 'Datuk'

Wearing a traditional black and gold Malay outfit (Baju Melayu and samping) and headgear, Khan received the title of "Datuk" (equivalent to British Knighthood) from the governor of Malaysia's southern Malacca state.

Bollywood superstar ShahRukh Khan today became the first Indian actor to be conferred on a prestigious Malaysian title.

Wearing a traditional black and gold Malay outfit (Baju Melayu and samping) and headgear, Khan received the title of "Datuk" (equivalent to British Knighthood) from the governor of Malaysia's southern Malacca state.

Baju Melayu is similar to a kurta pajama, while 'samping' is a piece of cloth men tie around the waist and which falls to the length of the long shirt.

The 43-year-old actor, who has a large fan base among the Malays, held the estimated 1,000 guests at the investiture spellbound as he received the Darjah Mulia Seri Melaka (DMSM), conferred on him and 76 others.

The actor kept waving to his fans as he was escorted into the hall. The Bollywood icon was the focus of attention as media and fans clicked away using cameras from their seats.

The actor will be referred to as Datuk Shahrukh Khan in Malaysia and will be addressed as Datuk. Each Malaysian state chooses its own list of people to honour with "Datukship". A majority of the awardees are local Malaysians who would have excelled in some area or are in the government.

Malacca authorities said Khan was given the title because some of his movies had been shot in the the historical state boosting tourism.

Khan shot a song for the movie 'one two ka four' in Malacca which was named as one of the heritage cities by Unesco a few months ago.

However, the decision to award Khan with the Datukship received a fair share of criticism across the country with local artists and public noting that the award could have been given to a local actor or artist.
