Farah Khan has been bold enough in her ventures with Shahrukh Khan till now. Main Hoon Na (2004) was an image makeover for Shahrukh Khan, who is known for his highly emotional and romantic roles. In Main Hoon Na, Shahrukh was portrayed as a brilliant army officer who moves out to fulfil his father’s last wish. Farah Khan again tries to do the same with Om Shanti Om, where she portrays SRK with ‘perfect six abs’ in the video of the song dard-e-disco. Barely a week after the song was released, it is already creating a buzz. The song itself is very peppy and although the settings are primarily western, the tracks have a Persian touch to it. Composer Vishal- Shekhar and lyricist Javed Akhtar tries to make the number a niche for the dance floor.
If we take the public reactions into consideration, this is easily the most awaited movie of 2007. The interesting point is the macho man look of Shahrukh Khan. SRK has never been known for a perfect figure. That’s why people feel that Farah Khan wants to reincarnate SRK in Om Shanti Om.
SRK and Farah Khan had been successful with Main Hoon Na and we hope that the SRK magic continues to mesmerize the audience. Let’s hope that Om Shanti Om does another Chak De for Shahrukh Khan.
