SRK on a special celeb cruise in Instanbul

By the time you read this, Shah Rukh Khan, with his parivaar would have boarded a celebrity cruise in Istanbul, and will come back only after the 25th. After turning heads and dropping jaws (SRK at Bachchan premiere – where did the hush- hush rivalry disappear and how?) at the Raavan premiere in London, Khan is apparently taking a week’s break travelling on this special celeb cruise.

DELHI DOSTS: Further, the khabar is that since this cruise took off on the 10th, there are many jaane maaney log on board already – Krishna Kapoor (Raj Kapoor’s wife) with Ranbir Kapoor, and Ritu and Natasha Nanda. Before we think the Khans are set to holiday with the Kapoors, the source reveals that they are not a part of the SRK group. So who’s he holidaying with? His Delhi buddies – bro-in-law Vikrant with Namita Chhibba as well as Gauri’s mom Savita, SRK’s close friend Sanjay Passi and his wife Shalini, along with the glam couple’s Mumbai-based friend, socialite Kaajal Anand.

I LUV DITCH STORIES: As if the cruise was not buzzing with enough well-known and well-talked about personalities, we got to know that Karan Johar was initially going to be a part of it, but the director could not make it. Goss is that he ditched them ’coz of work. Remember he’s busy with his upcoming movie? So while mom Hiroo Johar would be there, beta would be away. Well, Karan, we thought that for you, it’s all about loving your family, isn’t it?
