Shah Rukh Khan slams Ramez after Ramadan prank

June 4, 2017

Abu Dhabi, Jun 4: Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan slammed Egyptian jokester Ramez Galal on his television show Ramez Undergound on Friday, as he fell victim to one of Galal's infamous pranks.

Galal tricked Khan into thinking he has an interview with Lebanese-Armenian presenter Neshan. But he was then taken into the desert for a safari, only to plummet into a pit of quicksand along with the car that was carrying him. Galal dressed up as a massive lizard and charged toward him before the big reveal.

Khan, 51, appeared furious, calling Galal sick and ugly.
“You got me here all the way from India to do this [expletive]?” he demanded. “Don't talk to me.”

“You're my hero, you're my dream,” Galal said, attempting to assuage Khan's anger as he pulled him out of the quicksand.

But Khan tackled the host to the ground, poised to punch him. “Should I make it funnier?” he asked.

Galal told him that “millions of Egyptian people” were waiting for his episode, but Khan was having none of it, retorting, “I will take your clothes off and bury you here. I promise you.” He also asked to meet with the producers of the show.

Later, however, Galal posted a selfie with a much calmer Khan as well as a video where Khan says, in Arabic, “Wait for me this Ramadan on the programme Ramez Underground on MBC Masr.”
The seasoned actor, known for films such as Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, Kal Ho Naa Ho and Khabi Khushi Khabie Gham, refused to stay for Galal's standard post-prank interview on the show.

Unverified reports that Khan was paid up to $400,000 (Dh1.4 million) to appear on the show have surfaced; MBC was unable to confirm or deny those claims to tabloid!.

Galal is a divisive figure in Arabic television, with some enjoying his sense of humour and others deeming his pranks cruel. Some consider his antics to be staged or fake. He returns every Ramadan with the same programme, but operates under a different theme each year.

Actress Nadia Al Jundi, who appeared in Ramez Underground days prior to Khan, told Galal he needed therapy, while Cheb Khalid, another guest this year, was more jovial about it.

Mumbai, Jan 13: On the ongoing protests against new Citizenship Law, Bollywood actor Zeeshan Ayub said that everyone has been exposed and the common man has understood everything and the right-wing people cannot make a fool out of them by giving vague statements.

Talking to ANI, Zeeshan said, "Law is supposed to give the citizenship but the way in which the criteria have been changed is the trouble here."

Disagreeing to the continuous statements put forward by the BJP government that CAA is not a hindrance to the citizenship, the actor further said, Things are clear now, people have now understood the facts, the people and the intention behind are now exposed,.. they can't make a fool out of common people any more."

Zeeshan said it actually the other way round, those people are the ones who are misleading the general public by fluctuating their own statements. "Home minister said something, the next day something else is being said in the Ram leela..people are getting confused., the 'Ranjahanna' actor added.

He further said, "Earlier it was Hindu-Muslim propaganda, but that didn't work, so now you are making it a case between two political parties.. basically you are changing your own statements." When asked about his take on the ongoing JNU Violence, the actor said the members of the alleged political party itself have come out and explained their part in the case and yet no action has been taken.

The actor finally said that people should develop a sense of humanity.

Los Angeles, May 24: Filmmaker Frank Marshall, one of the producers behind Jurassic World: Dominion, says the forthcoming film is not a conclusion of the franchise.

Colin Trevorrow, who rebooted Steven Spielberg's blockbuster Jurassic Park franchise with 2015's Jurassic World, is back on the director's chair after sitting out on second movie Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018).

Asked about the upcoming movie, Marshall told Collider: "It's the start of a new era."

Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard are coming back for the third film, which will also feature original stars of 1993's Jurassic Park -- Laura Dern, Jeff Goldblum and Sam Neill.

The producer also revealed how he sees the film franchise extending into the future.

"The dinosaurs are now on the mainland amongst us, and they will be for quite some time, I hope," Marshall said.

The film was three weeks into production when it was shut down over coronavirus concerns, but the producer said the team has the sets built in London and will be "back in business" once they have guidelines from the British government.

Dominion is still slated to be released on its scheduled date of June 11, 2021.
