Shahrukh says "he's not good for Hollywood"

Bollywood superstar SHAHRUKH KHAN is not surprised he has failed to land a part in a blockbuster movie - because he doubts his acting abilities. The actor - who is currently in London promoting new movie Go For It India - will never land a megabucks movie deal because he does not boast the skills of his Hollywood counterparts. He says, "If there is a (Hollywood) role which is interesting enough, I would do it. But so far I have never been offered a big role or a good role from Hollywood - actually, for that matter, never a role from Hollywood, big or small. "I don't think I am a specifically talented enough 40-year-old actor. I am sure there are a lot of 40-year-old actors there who are more talented, better looking, speak the language better. "And I don't have a USP (unique selling point) of Kung Fu, I can't do something specific. Unless they start doing Hindi film songs in Hollywood, I don't think anybody is going to cast me." And Khan claims Bollywood stars should give up attempting to break into Hollywood, adding "I don't think working down there (Hollywood) is the ultimate aim or should be the ultimate aim of an Indian actor."

Has Akshay Kumar stolen the ‘King of Bollywood’ tag from SRK?

For fans, who have checked out the trailer of Akshay Kumar’s new movie ‘Singh is Kinng’ sure must have noticed that the star is being introduced as the ‘King of Bollywood’ in the flick.

We thought it was interesting as its Shahrukh, who has been tagged as the ‘King in Bollywood’ as he is referred to as ‘King Khan’ in Bollywood. In 2007, if SRK delivered 2 hits ‘Chak De’ and ‘Om Shanti Om’, and Akshay managed to give 4 blockbusters, ‘Namastey London’, ‘Heyy Babyy’, ‘Bhool Bhulaiya’ and ‘Welcome’.

So talking about the success ratio, Akshay is sure ahead of SRK in the game; the star is already receiving rave reviews for his role of ‘Bachchan Pande’ in Yashraj’s ‘Tashan’. Besides, ‘Singh is Kinng’ and ‘China to Chandni Chowk’ are on the way to soon create magic at the box-office as well.

With such an impressive pipeline, it looks like year 2008 sure belongs to Akshay and it is no surprise that the star wants to upgrade himself from being the ‘Khiladi’ to being called the ‘King of Bollywood’.

So fans, who truly deserves the ‘King of Bollywood’ title; is it Akshay or Shahrukh?
