Shah Rukh Khan who is shooting for Billoo Barber in Pollachi, a village in Tamil Nadu is drawing crowds of fans and creating a frenzy.
The home production of Shah Rukh Khan directed by Priyadarshan began shooting in this picture postcard village, which is a favorite with Kollywood. Billoo Barber is a remake of Malayalam hit Katha parayumbol, which was recently remade in Tamil as Kuselan and starred another superstar, Rajnikanth.
Shah Rukh Khan’s presence has created an unprecedented frenzy in the spot. People in fancy cars and mini- buses from Kochi, Trichur, Bangalore and Coimbatore have been coming to catch a glimpse of King Khan.
“SRK has been overwhelmed by the kind of reception he has been getting from fans in Pollachi. In Billoo Barber, Irfan Khan is the hero while Shah Rukh makes an appearance only towards the climax and his scenes with Irfan are going to be the highlight of the film,” says a visibly excited Priyadarshan.
At the same time Shah Rukh Khan is also the target of terrorist groups, having received death threats and security has been beefed up around him. Nearly 100 policemen and a dozen of his personal security men are providing him security. The entire top floor of Sakthi hotel, where he is staying, has been converted into his personal suite, with special state-of-the-art security gadgets being used. Twenty bulletproof vehicles have been flown in from Mumbai for the star and his personal entourage.
Shah Rukh Khan also stars in the movie as a super star. To exude the right amount of grandeur, Priyadarshan has flown in a Maybach in which SRK will travel in the movie. A Maybach costs around 5 crores. The car itself is drawing curious crowds.
