Books and Celebrities

Another Side of Shakhrukh Khan, the King of Bollywood

According to The Times of India (TOI), the largest English selling newspaper in India, SRK is a pure bookworm. He just loves reading any kind of books, fiction and non-fiction. He has a vast collection of books he bought whenever he travel. His personal library will make any other bookworms envious. Considering huge money he accumulate from his ever box office movies, that’s understandable.
 
One might suspect that his love of collecting books is just for the sake of collecting and prestiges without any concern to read them. The assumption, if the TOI journalist who interviewed him to be believed, is wrong. During the interview, he eloquently quote some thought and ideas he took from some books.

Well, I think some Indonesian celebrities needs to have a look at SRK to get some inspiration. Being beautiful and handsome plus extravagant life-style might be the requirement of being a celebrity, so to speak. But brainy and insightful celebrities certainly have a more sustainable beauty and, ofcourse, wider following.
