Bollywood
actor
Shahrukh
Khan
has
made
a
wish.
He
wants
to
be
the
most
popular
Indian
on
micro-blogging
site
Twitter
and
overtake
Minister
of
State
for
External
Affairs
Shashi
Tharoor.
Shahrukh
who
had
taken
to
Twitter
ahead
of
the
release
of
his
movie
My
Name
Is
Khan
has
close
to
170000
followers
compared
to
that
of
Tharoor
who
has
more
than
660000
followers
and
has
landed
in
many
controversies
due
to
his
tweets.
Speaking
at
NDTV
Indian
of
the
Year
Awards,
Shahrukh
said
"In
few
months
I
am
going
to
overtake
Shahi
Tharoor
(on
twitter).
I
am
going
for
him.
He
is
our
god." Tharoor
was
generous
enough
to
Shahrukh's
statement
and
replied
"I
had
predicted
this
the
day
Shahrukh
joined
twitter.
I
will
be
happy
rather
than
regret
it,"
the
politician
said.
Well
seems
like
from
being
the
Baadshah
of
Bollywood,
Shahrukh
wants
to
be
Baadshah
of
the
internet.
