Adieu - Mr King Khan!

Feroz Khan. The very name effuses panache, style, confidence and and glamour. He was flamboyance personified. His raspy voice tangoed with his swagger.

For the audience, his presence on screen always meant that something different was to be expected. He was the master of bedazzlement. He was one among the bastion of actors who had the charisma and the guts to chart his own niche to become the Cowboy of Bollywood. He stood tall for me in all I could see of him. He was pure fun to watch.

Award shows will miss his larger than life presence. The red carpet is surely in mourning. He always wore a big smile and never failed to surprise his audience by doing something different.

I read that he lived a very lavish life and I hope and pray that he gets to rest in royal style that is only his to claim. I surely will miss his swagger, the warm smile that he always wore and of course, the sunglasses.

Feroz Khan, for me, is the true King Khan! May God bless his soul.

It is sheer entertainment paisa vasool for the general online readers who also need to quite well versed with the cricketing world and its constituents.

Fake or not, it sure is quite riveting. Let the buzz buzz around...
