Shah Rukh Khan and Katrina Kaif set off a mini frenzy at Mumbai's Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport when they arrived from London at 1.20 am on March 28, 2011.
The two superstars returned to India after completing a 35-day schedule for Yash Chopra's yet-untitled film, which is slated to be Bollywood's big Diwali release this year. Stepping out of the airport building, SRK gave a few quick bites to the press but Katrina chose to walk straight into her car.
"We had a great time shooting," Shah Rukh said. Asked if rumours that the film had been titled London Ishq were true, he replied: "It's not true. The name isn't London Ishq." He also talked about Ra.One animator Charu Khandal, who is currently battling for life at Mumbai's Kokilaben Ambani Hospital after a road accident on March 25.
"It's very unfortunate. I've been in touch with my office. I'll go and visit her. I pray Allah makes her all right soon," SRK told the media at the airport.
Though the flight landed in the early hours, the buzz that gained ground from March 27, 2011 about the King Khan and Kat's arrival had ensured a mini mob outside the airport.
"Shah Rukh and Katrina chose to leave from the main exit gate" an eyewitness said.
Incidentally, a recent report suggested that the two stars, along with friends, had taken out time to catch Agent Vinod together at a London multiplex. Katrina looked gorgeous despite the long flight. She was casually dressed in loose black lowers teamed with a pale seagreen summer jacket and a sleeveless black tee. SRK wore a black leather jacket, white T-shirt and denims. Both stars chose to keep their shades on despite the late hour.
While Katrina left in her electric blue Audi, SRK set off for home in a white BMW. The London stint of the film began on February 22 and included filming at Borough Market, Jubilee Walk, the Tower Bridge and Canary Warf. A key action scene was filmed at Shepherd's Bush for which four streets were shut down..
