SRK has no time for Farah's film! Shah Rukh Khan it seems is preferring to shoot Anubhav Sinha (Dus, Cash) directed action thriller Ra.1 rather than going in for Farah Khan's Happy New Year after he completes My Name Is Khan. Both Ra.1 and Happy New Year are being made under the King Khan's home banner Red Chillies Entertainment. A source reveals, “SRK was earlier in two minds whether to go on floors first with Farah's film or Anubhav Sinha's. But apparently he has made up his mind to do the action adventure movie Ra.1, which has a superhero backdrop. It will begin shooting from early next year and will be extensively shot on foreign locations. Shah Rukh has already begun preparing for the role by working out on his physique and is again aiming to acquire 6-pack abs. He was also recently quoted stating, “I want to put on my tights and my kids blanket on my back. I want to do this film for my children. I've always wanted to make a superhero film, but I never had six-pack abs. Now that I have them, I want to do this. It's not an animation film, as many people believe; I would like to clarify that. It's a live action film.” - Agencies Aishwarya cries over past Bollywood actress Aishwarya Bachchan is very upset these days because her past is coming back to haunt her.

The movie may be out in the market by early 2010. Another song for friend Mishra's yet another movie; Ali is actually composing a song titled Tera Kya Ho Ga Johnny. This is not a song from one of his previous albums but an original out of the new mill – churned out by Ali. Fuzon is widely rumored to be doing a mega ballad song for the same movie, details of which are still a bit fuzzy. The song Lagay Na Jiya from the album Journey will be used in Mumbai 11 or Mumbai Cutting. Congrats to Fuzon if they bag this opportunity at this time.
