King seems too little an epithet anymore as Shah Rukh Khan did the impossible this year.

Then, he laughed hard -- at himself and then all of Bollywood -- with Om Shanti Om, a glorious celebration of the banalities and the insanity of our cinema, the madness that keeps us coming back for more.

Oh, and before all this, he ran a little talkshow called KBC.
One imagines Khan is smiling.
He's had a helluva busy year, but he's shown India who the boss is.
