SRK,Jackman dance to Dhak Dhak

Thanking the actress,who slipped out of the room soon after,he said,“When I was told that I’ll be introduced by the most beautiful actress in the world,I thought they meant my wife.” After receiving the reaction he expected,Jackman added,“I say this because I’m a smart man,and also because my wife’s seated in the front row.”

As Johar,Khan and Jackman sat down for a chat,the Australian actor who is also an ardent cricket fan,started his note referring to the quarter final game on Thursday that Australia lost to India. “At the gym this morning,I was given a strip with a thought for the day. It said,‘A man’s worst failures are followed by big successes’. After the game we lost yesterday,I knew that today’s going to be a great day. And now that we have cricket out of the way,let’s get chatting.”

The two stars then spoke about playing superheroes on screen — Jackman is known for his character Wolverine in the X-Men movies and Khan will be seen as one in Ra.One this year — talking about the discomforts that they’ve had to go through with their respective costumes. The camaraderie between the two actors had the audience clinging to very word they said. Playing the perfect guest,the Hollywood star stole the show with his witty lines and nonchalance.

Jackman admitted to having watched quite a few Bollywood films. He added that in Baz Luhrmann’s historical romance,Australia,his kissing scene with Nicole Kidman in the rain followed by a dance sequence,was inspired by Bollywood. Khan then took the opportunity to teach the star a few Bollywood dance moves as he sang Dhak Dhak,which Jackman sportingly performed on stage. As Jackman promised to return,he told Khan that his next visit will be when Johar signs him on for My Name Is Khan’s sequel: “And then I’ll say,‘My name is Jackman,and I’m not a tourist’.”
