Shah Rukh plans a grand Bollywood tribute for Michael Jackson




He might have had a rotten experience in the US owing to the humiliation he faced at the American airport, but Shah Rukh Khan has got over with it and now has eleborate plans to pay the American legend and the King of Pop Michael Jackson a big fat tribute. Set for Jackson’s birthday on August 29, the tribute will be marked by an album that will have Bollywood’s biggest names record their heartfelt honour for the legend.

News has it that when SRK’s production Red Chilles creative heads conceived the idea to the actor he loved it. Being a huge fan of the icon, Shah Rukh immediately started planning to pay a fitting tribute to Jackson. Confirming the news a daily quoted a source as saying, " Shah Rukh had cried when he learnt about MJ’s death. He was also supposed to attend one of the London concerts, which never happened. So, the idea was finalised and they decided to make a music video as a tribute. The best talent for the song was Vishal of the Vishal-Shekhar duo. Vishal is a huge fan too and he was in shock for days when he learnt about MJ’s death."

Vishal Dadlani too confirmed the story and said, “The song is titled, ‘We lived in his world’.”

Besides SRK, the album will also feature singers Kay Kay, Shaan, Sunidhi Chauhan and Shreya Goshal besides celebs like Hrithik Roshan, Shahid Kapur, Harman Baweja, Yuvraj Singh, Katrina Kaif, Kangna Ranaut and Priyanka Chopra, among others. The video, currently being shot, is directed by Samar Khan.

What’s even more endearing about this goodwill gesture, is the fact that none of the people associated with the video have charged a penny for this act. It’s been shot in low lighting and has a unique mood. The video will go on air on all the leading channels on August 29, MJ’s birthday.
