SHAH RUKH KHAN: Living with a Superstar



The Discovery Travel and Living channel has been broadcasting the series 'Living with a Superstar' dedicated to Bollywood hero Shah Rukh Khan for the utmost delight of his huge fan following throughout the world. The lifestyle channel followed the star during an entire year and has launched the show last February, releasing several episodes for which we provide Youtube links. (A very special thanks to the dedicated Italian Cinema Hindi team for these updates). See the 1st part of episode number 1 here as well as a list of subsequent episodes.

Discovery Travel and Living is most certainly the definitive lifestyle channel on TV. The idea of the series format is both exhilarating and unique as it showcases aspects of my life that have seldom been seen in the public domain. I look forward to welcoming you all into my life.” Shah Rukh Khan expressed when asked about the series.
