Oct 16: SRK is in Cannes for a couple of days. He went there to attend a fat destination wedding. Shahrukh Khan represented Indian cinema in 2002 with his movie ‘Devdas’ in Cannes. While in Cannes, the actor got nostalgic about his earlier visits, especially during the time when he represented India with his movie ‘Devdas’.
On Sunday night, SRK tweeted, “At Cannes after years... Memories come flooding back of 'Devdas'. Insha Allah will come here to represent India with more beautiful films.”
In 2002, at the Cannes International film festival, ‘Devdas’ was screened at a special screening. The movie was not part of the competition. Every year during May, Cannes film festival is conducted. Over the years, Indian cinema has spread its presence at this international film festival.
Shahrukh went to Cannes to attend wedding of Kunal Grover, son of British socialite Pamela Grover. He married Ria Dubash.
Other than Shahrukh, many other celebrities also went to attend the wedding of Kunal Grover. It was Tushar’s first visit to Cannes. He tweeted, “In Cannes now for a big fat Indian destination wedding, both for the first time! Still getting used to all the paraphernalia! (spelt correct?).”
Socialite Pamela Grower is friends with Bollywood celebrities like Gauri Khan, Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Chandra among others.
Shahrukh Khan is currently busy with the filming of upcoming movie ‘Happy New Year’. The movie is directed by Farah Khan and will release next year. SRK is paired opposite Deepika Padukone in this movie.
SRK’s last movie ‘Chennai Express’ was a super duper hit movie. It bagged a business of more than 200 crores. The actor confesses making more enemies post his movie ‘Chennai Express’. He said, “I am scared of losing. I am scared of coming second. I am scared of not making it big. So, I have such a fear of failure that I work harder when even I don't need to. I work longer when I don't have to.”
He also said, “I never rest on my laurels because I feel that this will be taken away one day. I have this fear that if I don't work hard enough I will lose what I have attained and not be able to continue to do so. I don't have blood pressure neither I am a heart victim but I need to just work hard.”
Of late SRK has been facing certain health issues.
