ShahRukh Khan in Jail

by Richa on February 13, 2011

Lover boy Shahrukh Khan will be celebrating Valentine’s Day in jail. King Khan will be shooting in a jail during the lover’s day as he thinks there is no point celebrating a particular as lover’s day.

Apart from King Khan, Bollywood celebrities like Priyanka Chopra, Arshad Warsi, Katrina Kaif, Aamir Khan, Kareena Kapoor, Deepika Padukone thinks it is a fashion to celebrate Valentine’s day.

Aamir Khan will be in Berlin on that day. Deepika will be shooting in Bhopal. Katrina will also be busy with her shoot. Bebo(Kareena Kapoor) won’t be with Saiffu(Saif Ali Khan) dear.

Well, it seems Bollywood celebrities are in no mood to celebrate the day.

Saint Valentine’s Day, commonly shortened to Valentine’s Day, is an annual commemoration held on February 14 celebrating love and affection between intimate companions.

In modern times, Hindu and Islamic traditionalists consider the holiday to be cultural contamination from the West, result of the globalization in India. Shiv Sena and the Sangh Parivar have asked their followers to shun the holiday and the “public admission of love” because of them being “alien to Indian culture”. These protests are organized by political elites, but the protesters themselves are middle-class Hindu men who fear that the globalization will destroy the traditions in his society: arranged marriages, hindu joint families, full-time mothers, etc.

Despite these obstacles, valentine’s day is becoming increasingly popular in India.
