Karan, Adi are 'lallu': SRK (Movie Snippets)

New Delhi, Oct 11 Shah Rukh Khan says he had approached his friends Karan Johar and Aditya Chopra to direct his mega-budget 'RA.One' but they chickened out.

'I went to all directors to make this film ('Ra.One') and even my own friends like Karan or Aditya. They all are 'lallu' (idiots) I say. I wanted to do something more than a romantic comedy,' Shah Rukh told his friend, actress Preity Zinta on UTV Stars' 'Up Close and Personal with PZ'.

The 45-year-old, who plays a superhero in the film which is releasing Oct 26, is hoping for positive things for the project. It is directed by Anubhav Sinha.

'I have been informed that I am officially broke and 'Ra.One' has turned out to be one of the most expensive films. If this film does well, it will go down the history and will be remembered. I am glad I have bought something to India which has never been seen before... I am very inspired by 'Krish' and 'Drona',' he said.

'RA.One' also features Arjun Rampal and Kareena Kapoor, with a cameo by superstar Rajinikanth and a special voiceover by Amitabh Bachchan.

When Saba lost her long tresses!

'Mujhse Fraaandship Karoge' actress Saba Azad, who plays a strong girl in the movie, isn't as strong in real life. The youngster shed a bucket full of tears when her hair was required to be cut for the role.

The actress had knee-length hair originally and the role demanded her to cut them. She was petrified when she heard about it and began crying when her locks were being chopped, said a source from production house Yash Raj Films.

But when she opened her eyes, she was pleasantly surprised and was really happy with her makeover.

The movie will release Friday.
