This is the theme song of the high profile team Kolkata Knight Riders owned by the King of Bollywood, Shah Rukh Khan. Juhi Chawla and her husband Jai Mehta are co-owners of the team.

Shahrukh Khan also invests his money in the film production named "Red Chillies entertainment". So users, what do you think, is SRK a better investor or a better actor, have your say...

I think Shahrukh Khan is a good investor, His team Kolkata Knight riders are performing very good these days and also all the movies under red chillies entertainment, namely Main Hoon Na, Kaal, Paheli, Om Shanti Om, Billu, My Name Is Khan, all were superhit.

Mr. Shahrukh Khan has a tremendously sharp business mind. He knows exactly where and how to invest his money and how to make it big; which is why KKR was amongst the highest profit makers in IPL 1 and IPL 2 even after they performed miserably in the series. However, he wouldn't have been "Shahrukh Khan" if he was not an actor. His Brand Power wouldn't have been there if he was not the fabulous actor that he is. He is first and foremost a stupendous actor, who had worked in the film industry for a grand 17 years to give us some marvellous movies like DDLJ, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Devdas, Chak De India, My Name Is Khan and many more to come.

Yes Mr.Namrata Pathak, Shahrukh can be a good investor. He has gained the name, fame, and fortune from the cine field and also a good business man with  acumen. In case he wisely decides he will reach the heights of business.

Since Shahrukh is certainly not a good actor (he is a great hero), he could be a good investor (but that has to be seen in the long-term).

Hi Namrata, Its a coincidence!!! 2 days back I discussed this with my friends.

I perceive SRK as astute business thinker, a sharp person.He has outstanding investing sense. No wonder, his team KKR was highest net income earner in IPL 1 & IPL 2 despite the poor show as cricket team. One main reason of this finanical success is SRK's marketing techniques using his BRAND IMAGE & promotions.

Not only in IPL, but in his production house red chillis entertainment has been able to make profitable ventures.. i.e. films.

SRK as an actor is something which always draws attention, raises questions about his abilities as an "actor" than his "megastardom" All the time, people keep saying that he is media-savvy n whatever is he today, its because of media giving him hype. He is not at all a good actor.

 I would say on this- He is damn capable actor. Better Call him, a trend-setter. He has shown what he is capable of in films like Chak De India, Darr, Swades. U can't buy media all over the world. No one can..
