The two keenly anticipated movies of this year SRK’s ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’ and Aamir’s ‘Ghajini’ now have different challenges to meet.

There are also hopes that both the films will put an end to the lacklustre season in the Hindi film industry (Bollywood).

But the most important thing is that, they’ll lure back film fans who have kept away from cinemas since the Mumbai  attacks.

During the last two weeks, the majority of Mumbai’s 75-plus multiplexes witnessed below 30% occupancy.

Ace Bollywood superstar Shahrukh Khan on Saturday become the first foreign actor to be conferred a Malaysian title, ‘Datuk,’ which is often equated with the British knighthood

Resplendent in a black baju Melayu, samping and songkok, King Khan received the title of ‘Datuk’ from Mohamad Khalil Yaacob, the Governor of Malaysia’s southern Malacca State, during a special ceremony in Malaysia.

Baju Melayu is just like ‘kurta-pajama’, while ‘samping’ is a piece of cloth men folded around the wearer’s waist, falling to the length of the long shirt.

Kuala Lumpur, Dec 7 : Prior to his arrival in Malaysia to receive his Datukship, Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan had sustained an arm injury during a film shoot.

The pain had aggravated so much that a local doctor was called to give him three jabs to reduce the pain.

“My shoulder hurts, but the show must go on,” The Star Online quoted Khan, as saying during an exclusive interview in his luxurious hotel room at the Villa Istana.

Kuala Lumpur, Dec 7 : Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan, who became the first Indian actor to be conferred on a prestigious Malaysian title, has agreed to help Malacca in developing local film industry and scout the state for movie locations.

The 43-year-old said that a team from Mumbai would visit Malacca sometime next August or September to explore locations for movies.

“There is a film I am planning to shoot some time in August and Sep­tember and I will send a team to look around Malacca,” The Star Online quoted him, as saying at a press conference after receiving his Darjah Mulia Seri Melaka (DMSM) from Governor Tun Mohd Khalil Yaakob at a ceremony in Ayer Keroh yesterday.

Aamir’s hindi version of ‘Ghajini’ is the most awaited film of this year, which will be released on December 25, 2008.

Moreover, Aamir’s macho look in the movie has impressed audiences a lot.

Seems like many others, sleek promos of ‘Ghajini’ and Aamir’s look have left an impact on SRK’s mind.

The rumor is that Bollywood Badshah has now zeroed in on Aamir and he is very much excited to do a film with Mr. Perfectionist.

Cinematographer Ravi K Chandran who has shot the actor’s projects ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’ and ‘My Name is Khan’ is said to have recommended Murugadoss.

Kuala Lumpur, Dec 5 : For Indian superstar Shah Rukh Khan, December 6 would be a double treat – he will not only receive Malaysian knighthood but will also wear the official state samping during a special investiture ceremony.

The Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan will be honoured with Darjah Mulia Seri Melaka (DMSM) award.

The ceremony, which will be held in Ayer Keroh, will see the King Khan donning the RM 3,000 specially made black samping adorned with kesidang flower motif.
