Salman Khan to open Koffee With Karan, is Shah Rukh listening?

It's official. Salman Khan will open the new season of Koffee With Karan. Salman and Shah Rukh's best friend Karan Johar, pictured here from the opening episode, have been spotted together on several recent occasions.

In fact, Shah Rukh's appearance on Koffee With Karan will be rather belated. Kapoor cousins Kareena and Ranbir will appear together on the show after Salman. To make up for SRK's late lateef entry, his fellow guest on the show may be his Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge heroine Kajol - a revelation accidentally made by Juhi Chawla in a recent interview to a magazine.

The new season of Koffee With Karan promises to go "Behind the Scenes. Beneath the Sheets."

The previous editions of the show, which airs on December 1, have featured an all-star guest list including the likes of Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol, Rani Mukherji, Deepika Padukone and Saif Ali Khan. However, will Karan's national television camaraderie with SRK's one-time sworn enemy make the Koffee bittersweet for the Baadshah? Given that there has been a recent thaw in relations with the now-famous iftaar party hug, only time will tell.
