Shah Rukh Khan - The Social Philosopher Penning his thoughts for a new column for a daily leading news tabloid, Shah Rukh Khan joins the bandwagon of celebrity writers, who with their writing skills (leaving acting behind) have made a lasting impression. From Amitabh Bachchan, Hrithik Roshan, Salman Khan, it is now Shah Rukh Khan’s turn to lend golden words of wisdom to his fans and readers. While these legends have energetically been active on Twitter, Shah Rukh Khan in his very first column for the news daily has drawn a stark connection between social networking, spiritualism, superstition and science. Not that SRK is ranting about Twitter trolls (he did that a long while back!), but he is unhappy with the 140 word limit and also explains the syndrome of ‘#’ hashtags as a source for emotions. Shah Rukh Khan is known to be witty and unapologetically sarcastic when it comes to speaking at events or otherwise. And the star continues his style here quite brilliantly as well. Taking a dig (assume it to be one) on a fellow actor, who underwent a brain surgery, or a dig at the actors considered incompetent in his language, SRK reveals his secret admiration as a writer. Taking a cue from the twelve zodiac signs, Shah Rukh Khan in his twelve columns will be explaining his experiences of the sign’s elements and traits. The actor begins with Libra and writes about life’s balances. Giving funny examples and sharing experiences of his multiple surgeries, SRK quite engagingly keeps readers equipped with doses of humour and some information with ease. Writing about needles being pierced to his crotch, his most painful experience ever, his cervical disc prolapse, SRK quite effectively has tried to blend logics of faith and science. It’s quite surprising in a way, to see a star of SRK’s stature writing about the deepest philosophies of life. Surprising also because, the star is known to be extremely chilled out and funny! One who has seen the star entertain over the years, wouldn’t deny his comic timing. And with this new column SRK, reveals his other side. Quite brilliantly expressing his thoughts. The star also reveals excerpts of a new book that is underway! Now we are as eager as anyone to see Shah Rukh Khan in his new avatar as a writer soon! bit.ly/1aNweC3
