Bollywood star Shahrukh Khan today bought first ticket of K Sera Sera’s Miniplex and opened this new venture at S.G.Highway based Gallops mall.

The central Air condition system was off, hand-to-hand scuffle happened between a lensman and bouncers, echo of public address system was so much that entire speech of Shahrukh was literally inaudible, adding to this the mixture of press and non-press persons inside the cramp porch of the mall made Shahrukh’s appearance and media interaction chaotic.

Shahrukh was dressed in black suit, dark blue shinning shirt(two top buttons open), a black blazer and dark big black goggles with golden frame.

He said his forthcoming film is not about terrorism but it’s a love story with dramatic background. He also said that his original surname and film’s title ‘My Name is Khan’ are just coincidence. “If there was any other star in this film, the film’s name would still remain same,” Shahrukh said.

When asked about whether he wished to accommodate any Pakistani cricketer in his IPL team, Shahrukh replied that there was no slot left in his team to accommodate any cricketer, forget Pakistani one. Shahrukh said, his team had one slot left and as the team was needing a fast bowler they choose Shane Bond of NZ.

When asked whether he had any plan to meet Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi, he replied that he was in Ahmedabad just for his work this time, but in future he would surely like to meet Mr. Modi. Shahrukh also said that he had met Narendra Modi in past(perhaps Shahrukh met Modi in actress Shilpa Shetty’s reception last year).

The mall where Shahrukh inaugurated the new multiplex and also interacted with media was closed for public in the morning to avoid any chaos. Both the roads leading to the mall were closed by organizers and police. Shahrukh recalled he had visited Ahmedabad before 10 years to promote his film Bazigar. He spoke dialogues of Bazigar, Don, Darr and Devdas amidst cheer of fans and greeted the people gathered there with Gujarati word: “Kem Chho”. Shahrukh said he was suffering from cold and therefore he would sound like Himesh Reshammiya while speaking. While speaking Devdas dialogue on liquor Shahrukh praised liquor prohibition policy of Gujarat and replaced a word ‘liquor’ with ‘cold-drink’ in Devdas dialogue.
