Make Sure to Go Watch My Name is Khan – Feb 12
// February 1st, 2010 // Desi-Indian
Shahrukh Khan and Kajol–two of the biggest Bollywood celebrities–made history when they rang the bell to open up NASDAQ on Monday.
I am not sure what promoting capitalism has to do with the film. Does Shahrukh Khan’s character (Rizwan Khan) in the movie also ring the NASDAQ ‘ghanti’ to reunite with his loved one? But anyway, it seems part of the heavy marketing scheme for a movie that promises entertainment value as well as progressive thought.
Watch the NASDAQ event here:
