Amidst all the controversies that has so far dogged the forthcoming commonwealth games, here is a good news that Shahrukh Khan is to perform in the opening ceremony of the games on October 3.
Sources close to Commonwealth games organising committee says that King Khan would give a dance performance in the presence of jam-packed Jawaharlal Nehru stadium. While it is still not known exactly what kind of performace he would give, it is sure that Shahrukh Khan is going to make his presence felt during theopening ceremony.
It may be recalled that Oscar-winning music composer AR Rahman has composed the theme song for the games-- Swagatham.
Rahman presented his song to a committee of ministers appointed to oversee the progress of the six-billion-dollar Games organization, which has been plagued by charges of corruption. Urban Development Minister Jaipal Reddy heads the group, which includes Sports Minister MS Gill and Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit, among others. Rahman seemed reluctant to reveal much more about the song when journalists asked him to reveal about it.
“It’s kind of Waka Waka?” one journalist asked, referring to the song Colombian pop star Shakira sang for the FIFA World Cup in South Africa this year. “Exactly no,” said Mr Rahman.
