When Shah Rukh and director Santosh Sivan went to the US in order to screen their latest film `Asoka` at a film festival, they had no idea that reel life would become real. In fact, when the Shah looked out of his hotel room, he was astounded to see smoke bellowing from the World Trade Center. And when he realized what was happening, he at once wanted to call home and assure everybody that he was okay, but all lines were down
When they were reconnected, SRK found himself actually relating the news to all his friends, making him feel like a news reporter - the role he actually played in `Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani`. Now that`s another case of reel life turning real!
