Bollywood’s Baadshah Shah Rukh Khan has found place for himself among the 50 Most Powerful People of the World selected by American news magazine, Newsweek!
The magazine says Shah Rukh Khan - who is No. 41 on the list – is the ‘King of Bollywood’.
“It’s not just that his (Khan’s) romantic flicks that make gazillions – it’s where those gazillions come from. Khan is huge in the Muslim world, even in Pakistan and Afghanistan, where the mullahs ban his films. Their main appeal is certainly the song-and-dance numbers, but Khan makes devoutly secular films where love trounces bigotry.”
Other known people who have made it to the list include US President-elect Barack Obama, Congress President Sonia Gandhi, French President Nicolas Sarkozy, American television host Oprah Winfrey and a surprise entry…Osama bin Laden, the global terrorist!

Fabulous. He makes it onto a ‘mainstream’ publication. King Khan rocks….
i dont think is right to call someone a terrorist
america even attacked iran and iraq how cum bush isnt called a terorrist personally i am not in the favour of any one who hurts someone and by that i mean i am not in the favour of osama bin laden
but its not only his fault there are others involved
its mean to call someone a terorist.
