Year 2009 seems to have begun on a good note for Baadshah of Bollywood- Shah Rukh Khan.

SRK, who is busy shooting for My Name Is Khan with Karan Johar and Kajol, was in for a pleasant surprise when he received a call from the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA) to present an award at the prestigious Golden Globes.

Shah Rukh would be announcing the winner and presenting the award in the Best Drama category.

The Golden Globes are the second most prestigious film awards after the Oscars and it is for the first time that an Indian actor has been invited to the Golden Globes.

SRK would be attending the event on Sunday 11th January along with good friend Karan Johar. Other international big names expected to attend the event include Hollywood stars such as Drew Barrymore, Cameron Diaz, Aaron Eckhart, Laurence Fishburne, Chris Rock and Jennifer Lopez.

Apart from SRK, another Indian artiste A.R.Rahman would be gracing the event.

The music maestro has been nominated for his musical score in Danny Boyle's much talked about film Slumdog Millionaire and if Rahman manages to pull it off, this would be indeed by a special moment for Indians across the globe.
