Shahrukh Khan wants Shakira for 'Ra.One'!

Shahrukh Khan wants Shakira for 'Ra.One'!: Big plans for his big-budget film! Shahrukh Khan is leaving no stone unturned for his dream project Ra.One. First, SRK got Akon to shoot a special song for the film, then it was heard he wants Shakira. Now the star has Lady GaGa on his wishlist for Ra.One.

As per recent reports, Shahrukh has especially asked Akon to approach Gaga with the idea of doing a video for Ra.One. Akon is apparently close to Gaga because he is the man who discovered her and helped in launching her music career.

Given the legions of fans Lady Gaga has over the world, her nod to the special song for Ra.One could be a big scoop. Obviously, the publicity that comes along with it is a bonus.

On the other hand, the makers of Ra.One are also trying to rope in Latino pop sensation Shakira. It’s learned that if Akon has been asked to convince Gaga, director Anubhav Sinha and Shahrukh are also sending Shakira feelers for the same.

SRK’s Ra.One is set to release this October.

Shakira proudly play as goddess Kali in Bollywood film?: Latin American pop sensation Shakira is set to play goddess Kali in an Indian film that will be shot in London and another European city.

The buzz has it that the film titled Kali - The Warrior Goddess will be produced by Karan Arora.

Arora reveals that the movie will be made in 3D. It will be a 2-hour long film in Hindi language. He goes on to add that the ‘Waka Waka’ singer has agreed to play goddess Kali in the film, but she still has to sign on the dotted line.

Shakira’s acting fee for the film is apparently being worked out.

If the project indeed materializes, it would be the first time a foreign artist would play an Indian goddess in a Hindi film. Arora said he chose Shakira because she’s dusky and has an international appeal.
