Shahrukh!! Plz don’t do it!!!
IPL, Om Shanti Om, Zee Cine Awards, Kya aap paanchvi pass se tez hain, TV ads, movie ads, awards, ShahRukh Khan is all over it!!! All dailies and tabloids keep flashing his photographs all over their pages!!I mean, agreed that he is the most charming ambassador any brand can ever get; I too am a bigggg fan of this guy, but……………….Over-exposure can do you in, Mr. Khan!! Just like it did Amitabh Bachchan in!Yes, SRK is the most sought-after name for any event/show; but that’s the beauty of it! If you keep making yourself available, you’ll be taken for granted, and the ’sought-after’ factor shall diminish!!No Amruta SRK is not wrong in being all the shows.Ur Conclusion that he will be taken for granted and sought after thing is totally incorrect.His star appeal and all that blah blah wil only diminish when he stops improvising himself and re-inventing himself!!AB appeal has diminished not becaz he has been over exposed,its becaz he has done nothing new off late.Probably his last good movie was BLACK.In the same way now if SRK does not beat himself after Chak Dee..Then he fails.SRK is right,he is his only competitor!!

Om’s love interest is the country's heart throb and star of the film Dreamy Girl, Shantipriya (Deepika Padukone).
Om gets to meet Shanti on two occasions. The first is at the premiere of Dreamy Girl, where he sneaks in after claiming he is the actor Manoj Kumar. The second is on a film set, where he saves her life after the set catches fire. From then on, Om and Shanti become good friends.
One day, Om overhears Shanti arguing with top producer Mukesh Mehra (Arjun Rampal). Om is shocked when Shanti is revealed to be secretly married to Mukesh, and both Om and Mukesh are surprised to learn that Shanti is pregnant with Mukesh's child. Mukesh is adamant that his relationship with Shanti be kept a secret, and tries to convince her that he cannot accept the pregnancy situation because a rich businessman is financing his upcoming film Om Shanti Om, though the truth is that he is planning on getting married to the businessman's daughter.
