Covering Bollywood and the Hindi Cinema

While it has not been long since Shahrukh Khan hosted KBC 3, it does feel like an end of a era on TV! Today we will see the finale episode of KBC with SRK's celebrity friends and looks like the King Khan had an emotional day!

"I felt very sad that it was ending. It was difficult bidding farewell to everyone. KBC 3 wasn’t just work but lots of enjoyment too. Almost 200 people were involved.It was exciting meeting new people and waiting for something different to happen. In film shoots, we know the scenes; in KBC 3, there was something new happening every day — some good and some not so good.On the last day, everyone got nostalgic. We had a wrap-up party that went on till 4.30 am. We all sat and chatted and I gave everyone little gifts. It was great."

On Salman Khan:
"Salman knows that I won’t ask him or anybody else personal questions. Shilpa Shetty was to come on the show too. I wanted three couples, and Katrina was to come with Lara, but it didn’t work out. It was only a last minute decision to have Salman and Katrina Kaif together. So I asked Salman if he and Kat would come together, and he consented. It was as simple as that.All four of them — Salman, Kareena (Kapoor), Katrina and Priyanka (Chopra) — were very sweet. Salman knew most of the answers. In fact, he was constantly poking fun at the questions pretending like he didn’t know the answers."

On His Kids and KBC:
"They love it. In fact, my son Aryan was very disturbed when he heard that it is ending. His teacher and friends love the show and he loves to show off how young and cool his father looks on KBC (laughs). He was only satisfied when I said I would be coming back."

"I’ve learnt to be more real, from people who are not as financially gifted as I am. Stars live in ivory towers and get disconnected from reality. So KBC helped me reconnected to reality and to simple and kind people.I will be a better actor after this stint. I’ve discovered that people love to have a good laugh, so sharing my sense of humour with them made me feel happy. "
