Koffee With Karan, Season-3 on Star World Options

[Sharmila-Sweet]

Karan Johar can't imagine kickstarting new Koffee season without Shah Rukh Khan. So the star records a video introduction

PS: AbhiAsh will be the first guests to feature this season

Shah Rukh Khan does not feature in the opening episode oF the third season of Koffee With Karan's (as he did in the earlier two outings). It is Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai who do the honours on November 7 on Star World.

But host Karan Johar cannot imagine kickstarting a new series sans a cuppa with best buddy SRK. As a result, Khan has shot an "introduction" to KWK so he could be a "part" of the show's opening episode.



As KJo puts it, "I cannot do anything without Shah Rukh. Whether it is a film, a fashion show or a chat show. It has to include him. Moreover, the show begins airing during Diwali. I can't be celebrating without including him."

Over the weekend, the producer-director was to shoot for the introductory scenes with SRK in Rome, for the International Film Festival where My Name Is Khan is being screened.

Adds Karan, "I don't need to tell Shah Rukh anything or give him a brief. I just need to give him a mic in hand. He has a way with words."

And King Khan sure knows how to serve the cuppa piping hot. Interestingly, KWK, will have AbhiAsh together on Koffee With Karan for the first time.
