Bollywood News : Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan today celebrated his 43rd birthday along with his family and close friends at his suburban bungalow 'Mannat.'

The actor is presently busy with the post production of his home production 'Billo Barber', which is to be released next year, Aditya Chopra's 'Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi' to be released next month and preparation of the second season of the Indian Premiere League (IPL).

The actor has not had a single release since last Diwali. His films 'Om Shanti Om' and 'Chak De India' were huge box office sucesses and had swept all film awards.

His foray into IPL as the owner of Kolkata Knight Riders team did not have a dream run in the T-20 league while his television show 'Kya Aap Panchvi Pass Se Tez Hai' also faired poorly.

The actor, however, took these failures in a positive stride and said that each failure energises him to achieve greater success.

During his absence from the silver screen his 'King' status was virtually challenged by actor Akshay Kumar whose 'Singh is Kinng' got a bigger opening than 'Om Shanti Om'.

Shah Rukh Khan's spat with Salman Khan at Katrina Kaif's birthday bash also hit the headlines recently.

Salman spoke extensively about the fight ruling out patch up. Khan has however said that if Salman was not his friend he was not his enemy either.

Swedish director Robert Nylund, who was roped in to direct Aamir Khan's next production Delhi Belly, is no more at the helm of affairs.

The actor has hired ad filmmaker Abinay Deo, who directed Hrithik Roshan's Cinthol commercial, to wield the megaphone for the film, which will probably be made in English.

"Robert Nylund has been replaced by Abinay, who is well known character actors Ramesh and Seema Deo's younger son (the elder one Ajinkya Deo is a recognised Marathi and Hindi actor) and the film was originally going to be in Hindi. It's now in English," a source close to the project said.

This is a big bright bustling break for the young ad maker who has directed Shah Rukh Khan, Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone for a high-budget Pepsi ad.

"In an instant replay of what happened between Aamir and Amole Gupte during Taare Zameen Par, Aamir couldn't see eye to eye with the Swedish director. After Delhi Belly was without a director, Aamir was very impressed by Abhinay's ads. When they met, he found Abhinay to be bright and full of ideas," the source added.

Apparently, Abhinay has been asked to direct Delhi Belly on the lines of Guy Ritchie's heist caper Snatch.

"It would be a very naughty and sexy comedy unlike anything one would expect from Aamir. And yes, he's likely to play a part in it," the source said.

Preity Zinta shared her birthday on January 31 with Amrita Arora. Preity was also the surprise guest at Amrita's theme party on the night of Jan 30. The two Aquarian girls even cut a cake together.

Says Preity, "Amrita is a really sweet girl and she has been inviting me every year in order to celebrate our birthday together. This year I said I had to go. Besides it was a theme party…wigs and hats. And I love hats. I am a very hat person. So I went in one of my favourite hats. Thank God I didn't wear the big blonde wig as I was planning to. Because the whole industry was there. How would I've looked?"

The fun-loving Aquarian side to Preity remains predominant. "All us Aquarians are gregarious and hassle-free. Maybe Abhishek, Urmila, Amrita, and I can have a collective birthday party next year. We are all chatterboxes. But I'm now learning to listen more carefully." Preity remains intact although she's now, in her own words, a better listener. "I have to be. I'm in all these board meetings for my cricket deal. And there I better shut up and listen. There's so much to learn."


Preity was in fact in a series of meetings on the eve of her birthday. "But on my birthday I've just decided to chill out. I'm at home watching a DVD, relaxing sleeping. Last year was a sad birthday for me. My dog had died. This year I've lots to look forward to. And I'm happy. The only thing that irritates me is the constant reference to my age from media persons."

E Niwas is on cloud nine! The talented director, whose new film My Name Is Anthony Gonsalves will hit the screens next week, seems to have caught the attention of none other than Shah Rukh Khan.

Reportedly, King Khan has assigned the directorial reins of his forthcoming film to Niwas.

"That's true," Niwas confirms, "He has offered a film to me, which I have gladly accepted. His company Red Chillies will be producing the film, but let me clarify, it wouldn’t be starring him."

Meanwhile, the principal cast of My Name Is Anthony Gonsalves is touring various cities to promote the film. They’ve already visited Ahmedabad and will be visiting Delhi, Lucknow, Jaipur and Hyderabad in the next few days
