SRK in the list of most powerful people!!

US based magazine 'Newsweek' has named topmost 50 powerful people in the world where US President-elect tops with first rank. Sonia Gandhi has ranked at 17^th position and Shah Rukh Khan holds 41^st rank.

Well, it's not just United States, but the entire globe is surprised to see that nor Will Smith neither Brad Pitt are listed in top 50, but Shah Rukh Khan is. Bollywood calls him 'King Khan' and his inclusion in the top 50 list of the most powerful people has expanded his King Khan’s empire. Getting on him, the magazine states, it's not just that his romantic flicks make gazillions—it's where those gazillions come from. Khan is huge in the Muslim world, even in Pakistan and Afghanistan, where the mullahs ban his films. (The movies thrive on the black market.) Their main appeal is certainly the song-and-dance numbers, but Khan (a Muslim married to a Hindu) makes devoutly secular films where love trounces bigotry. Sonia Gandhi gives Khan's DVDs to visitors, especially Muslim ones.
