In a first of sorts, Shah Rukh will wear his own wedding ring and an antique watch lent by the brand he endorses, in My Name Is Khan
Shah Rukh Khan, who normally doesn't like flaunting his accessories, will be seen sporting twou00a0-- an antique Tag Heuer watch and his own wedding ring (gifted to him by wife Gauri)u00a0-- for the first time in My Name Is Khan (see pics below).
Producer-director Karan Johar says, "Normally, Shah Rukh doesn't wear accessories but since the watch and wedding ring is part of the narrative and his character in the film, he agreed to wear both. It's his own wedding ring that he's wearing for a certain period of time."
Luckiest charm?
Stars normally wear accessories given to them by designers. About wearing the ring in the film, SRK says, "It's just a plain wedding band I wear in daily life. Shiraz (Khan's costume designer) and Karan wanted Rizwan's to be the same as mine so I wore my own." Says Karan, "The ring represents the luckiest part of Shah Rukh's existenceu00a0-- the time when Gauri came into his life and his life since that time. We wanted that luck to also rub off a bit on My Name Is Khan."
The watch, an extremely costly 1925 limited edition masterpiece, was apparently lent to Karan only after SRK made a special request for it. Khan concludes, "And I do wear accessories in films when designers tell me tou00a0-- but only if it's absolutely necessary. Otherwise, meri acting hi mera gehna hai... Ha! ha!"

"It's one thing that is so sacred to him and kind of depicts his love, marriage and relationships." says Karan Johar, noting, "SRK is paranoid about the ring and gets hysterical if anything happens to it. Once we thought we'd lost it the studio was in chaos trying to find it." |
