With Diwali knocking at our doorsteps, there’s just one thing that people have been stressing on, more than the festival itself and that is firecrackers. People are visibly divided between bursting crackers and supporting the ban by the Supreme Court. Now, while we are busy taking sides and arguing about it, our beloved celebrities have already started their celebrations and we are now ‘crackling’ with jealousy.

King Khan aka Shah Rukh Khan chose to play host for his friends at his residence ‘Mannat’. His best friend Farah Khan’s pictures gave us a glimpse of what can be called the most epic Diwali party of the year.

How can we forget Karan Johar’s style statement who shared his #OOTD (as they say) on Instagram. He wore a fabulous outfit designed by Manish Malhotra.

Before SRK’s party, Bollywood celebrities got together under one roof, for Salman Khan’s sister Arpita Khan Sharma’s grand pre-diwali bash. Well, Diwali scenes of Bollywood actors look lit, so it’s time for you to gear up to make this Diwali a memorable one.

Having said that, now that we have seen these pictures and cried a little over our woebegone plans, let’s continue with our standard tradition: dream of awesome parties while gorging on the sweets we got as Diwali presents and watch our favourite shows and chill. (Some of us plan to hide under the bed due to the explosions outside!)

There is no dearth of reality shows in India, yet every other day a new show is introduced that blows our minds away and gives us another reason to stay hooked to our TV sets. The latest one to join this bandwagon is ‘Lip Sing Battle’, which will mark the comeback of Bollywood director, producer, and choreographer Farah Khan, on the small screen. Even before its premiere, the show has been making quite some headlines. Earlier, Farah Khan posted a picture of actor Shah Rukh Khan giving him a surprise visit on the sets, which escalated our excitement to a pinnacle.  

Some surprises are so emotional @iamsrk thank u for bringing such positive energy on our set of #lipsingbattle

Well, now Farah Khan has posted pictures from the shoot of an episode and the lineup of celebrities – Karan Johar, Parineeti Chopra and Priety Zinta – who will appear on the show is sure to make this (in Farah’s words) the ‘maddest episode’ of this reality show.

This episode is going to be a really interesting one, partly because actress Parineeti Chopra is going to don a new avatar. She will appear in the getup of Raja Babu, a character that was made immortal by actor Govinda.

Maaaddddd episode of #lipsingbattle shot today!! With @karanjohar giving a run to lady raja babu @parineetichopra !! Cant wait for this to air!!

While, Parineeti stunned us with her Raja Babu avatar, actress Preity Zinta too wasn’t far behind in rocking the show with her sass. She posted a short video of her making her way to the shoot and we are falling in love with her all over again.

The show is the Indian version of ‘Lip Sync Battle’ and will see our beloved celebrities fighting each other and lip syncing to the Bollywood songs. This is a first of its kind reality show and it will be interesting to see the celebrities battle each other in this ultimate Bollywood face off ever. In fact, Farah reportedly even invited the makers of the Ameircan version ‘Lip Sync Battle’ on the first day of Hindi version’s shoot.

It feels as if it was only yesterday that Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘Om Shanti Om’ was released, which made us realize of the importance of “ek chutki sindoor” in a woman’s life. It also helped some hopeless romantics muster courage to go to their crushes and propose with ‘shiddat’ so that the whole universe conspires to bring them together. This movie taught us how to soothe our souring hearts by reminding ourselves that if nothing is going right, then “Picture abhi baaki hai mere dost.” While, we fans took home some of those kickass words of wisdom, Japan too took something from this movie and that was…inspiration to create a Broadway style musical play.

This movie was actress Deepika Padukone’s debut movie and has already completed 10 years now. Anyone who doesn’t feel old yet? Well, the Japanese version is titled ‘Oomu Shanti Oomu’ and kicked-off in Osaka yesterday and Farah Khan, like a proud mother, was present at the opening. She even tweeted about this play that was directed by Koyanagi Naoko and staged by the Takarazuka Revue theatre group. Farah also wrote that this is Bollywood’s first film to get its own international musical adaptation.  

1st Bollywood film ever to get its own international musical adaptation!! #oso opening night! Picture abhi baaki hain.. pic.twitter.com/OA0OjGcVN7

While, we fans were getting pumped up about this play and were cheering for Om and Shanti in our hearts, there was one particular tweet that took away both the limelight and our breath at the same time. The tweet was from none other than our Om Kapoor aka King Khan who teased us with a sequel of the movie.  

Arre yaar. Let’s do it in part 2 now. Last nite kids telling me how much they love OSO https://t.co/g0tL0b78zt

— Shah Rukh Khan (@iamsrk) 21 July 2017

Their interaction continued and with each tweet, our excitement gradually rose and has now reached to a pinnacle, which won’t come down until and unless their words come true.

Wish you were here to see how much love our film gets even in its 10 th year.. @iamsrk ??????arrigato https://t.co/pcXguAtmFW

— Farah Khan (@TheFarahKhan) 21 July 2017

Farah further posted a picture of an ubercool jacket with Om written on it and like her caption we too feel that SRK would have looked killer and dapper wearing that jacket. Well, maybe they can make a sequel just to include that jacket and SRK in one frame.

V should hav made this awesome jacket 4 @iamsrk .. OSO musical dress rehearsal was awesome..japan truly celebrating the film ??
