KJo
and
Gauri
to
join
Shahrukh
in
Rome
and
then
Berlin
for
his
birthday
Shahrukh
Khan
will
be
celebrating
his
20th
wedding
anniversary
October
25
without
his
wife.
The
actor
will
be
working
on
that
day.
He
is
shooting
with
Priyanka
Chopra,
Boman
Irani
and
Lara
Dutta
for
Don
2
in
Berlin,
Germany.
However,
on
his
birthday
November
2
King
Khan
will
have
the
company
of
his
loved
ones.
Two
days
before
his
birthday,
SRK
will
fly
to
Rome
for
a
special
screening
of
My
Name
Is
Khan
(MNIK)
at
the
international
film
festival
being
held
in
the
Italian
capital.
His
wife
Gauri
and
children
Aryan
and
Suhana,
as
well
as
friend
Karan
Johar
will
join
him
there.
On
a
break
While
Shahrukh
has
requested
a
three-day
break
from
his
producers
Ritesh
Sidhwani
and
Farhan
Akhtar
to
visit
Rome
for
the
film
festival
and
celebrate
his
birthday
with
his
family,
KJo
is
taking
a
short
break
from
shooting
his
TV
show
Koffee
With
Karan
3
to
be
there.
Later,
the
group
will
travel
back
to
Berlin
together
where
KJo
and
Gauri
have
planned
a
party
with
close
friends
(the
cast
and
crew
of
Don
2).
Karan
confirms,
"We
are
excited
that
MNIK
will
be
shown
at
the
international
film
festival
in
Rome.
Post-November,
the
film
will
be
released
in
theatres
across
Italy
for
the
first
time.
After
the
screening,
all
of
us
will
fly
down
to
Berlin
to
bring
in
Shahrukh's
birthday.
While
I
will
leave
after
that
to
spend
Diwali
with
my
mom
in
India,
Gauri
and
the
kids
will
stay
back
in
Berlin
to
celebrate
Diwali
with
Shahrukh."
What
gift
has
he
planned
for
SRK?
He
laughs,
"Haven't
decided
as
yet.
What
can
I
give
a
man
like
Shahrukh
barring
unconditional
love?" And
of
course
the
fact
that
MNIK
is
the
Hindi
film
which
has
grossed
the
most
internationally,
till
now.
According
to
trade
circles,
MNIK
has
grossed
over
22
million
US
dollars.
Karan
adds,
"When
I
was
making
it,
I
knew
it
was
a
global
film
which
had
a
humanitarian
message
that
would
penetrate
deep
and
wide
and
prick
many
people's
conscience.
I
am
gratified
that
it
has
achieved
that."
