He"s
not
only
the
box-office
King,
but
King
Khan
is
a
thorough
entertainer
when
he"s
got
the
mic
in
hand.
The
witty
Khan
is
known
to
throw
more
than
a
few
pun-ches
at
award
nights
or
other
private
functions.
Such
is
his
aura,
that
perhaps,
he"s
the
only
celebrity
who
pokes
fun
at
cricketers
straight
in
their
faces.
As
always,
our
cricketers
never
seem
to
mind
his
punches.
Shahrukh
Khan
was
at
his
wily
best
during
the
function
organised
by
the
Sahara
group
for
the
visiting
Pakistani
team
and
our
Indian
cricketers
in
2008
at
Lucknow.
Khan,
who
owns
the
IPL
team
Kolkata
Knight
Riders,
had
everyone
in
splits
with
his
whacky
puns
during
the
recently
held
IPL
Awards.
Often,
Harbhajan
Singh
is
at
the
forefront
of
SRK"s
jokes.
At
the
IPL
awards,
Khan
took
a
potshot
at
Bhajji"s
model
girlfriend,
Geeta
Basra.
“Bhajji
apka
ghar
kab
Basra
hai?" quipped
SRK.
While
a
blushing
Bhajji
couldn"t
help
break
in
to
laughter,
before
SRK
bounced
the
next
question
“Gita
ki
kasam
kha
kar
kaho?"
The
attention
turned
towards
SRK"s
KKR
captain
Sourav
Ganguly.
Khan
asked
Ganguly
to
sing
Korbo
Lorbo
Jeetbo"
–
the
official
anthem
of
the
Kolkata
Knight
Riders.
Rahul
Dravid,
who
was
sharing
the
stage
then,
butted
in
and
asked
Ganguly
not
to
use
the
word
Jeetbo
(win).
Through
its
three-year
history,
KKR
haven"t
won
many
matches
in
the
IPL.
The
best
jokes
were
reserved
for
former
Aussie
wicket-keeper
and
Deccan
Chargers
skipper
Adam
Gilchrist.
The
poor
Australian
wicket
keeper
was
the
culprit
of
badly
interpreted
Hindi.
Gilly
was
taught
to
say
“I
love
your
country" in
Hindi
by
none
other
than
SRK
himself.
The
result,
Gilly
proudly
recited
“Main
tumhare
bachche
ki
maa
banne
waali
hu".
This
left
the
audience
in
splits
and
made
Gilly
realize
that
he
has
been
held
the
scapegoat
of
SRK"s
antics!
There"s
plenty
more
to
the
night.
Don"t
miss
SRK"s
antics
at
the
IPL
Awards
on
Sunday,
23
May
at
8.00
pm
on
Colors.
