Ra One Theatrical Poster
Here’s a preview from Shahrukh Khan’s next home production Ra. One – a Hindi science fiction movie set to be released in 3D (and 2D). Sci-fi in Bollywood is oh-so-rare; remember the last one ? Ra.One stars SRK as Shekhar Subramaniam/G.One a superhero, with what looks like, from the Theatrical Release Poster, an energy source in his chest. Courtesy Wikipedia, here’s what Sharukh had to say about this superhero flick :
“Ra.One is the modern, new age technology version of our mythological “Raavan”, who was a mixture of ten different evil characters. I am essaying the role of G.One or better say Jeevan, a superhero who saves mankind from Ra.One’s torment. Through this film, I want to prove that Indian superheroes can also be as cool as the international ones.”
I don’t really care whether G.One is cooler than other super-heroes; all I want is for this film to be the full-on entertaining blockbuster of 2011 (yes, we haven’t had one yet!). Well, we’ll see, come October 26th. Meanwhile here’s a song “Chammak Challo” from the film, featuring Akon’s music. Notice the southie influences in the dance movements. Also hard to tell that the lyrics are in English in the beginning, unless you listen carefully.
