Shah Rukh or Salman may perform at Ekta's show

Ekta Kapoor's television awards event, to be held in December in the United Arab Emirates, is getting bigger by the day. The latest buzz is that either Salman Khan or Shah Rukh Khan may perform at the function. What's more, either Gautami Gadgil of Tulsi fame or Sakshi Talwar, better known as Parvati, will also be on stage at the Balaji Global Indian TV Honours 2007."Right from the start Ekta was sure of one thing - that her television awards show should be as big as the film awards," said Harsha Chugh Khanna, business head of Ekta's Balaji Telefilms."For that she has been working towards getting the biggest of Bollywood stars to perform at the show. However, there's only one pre-condition, each of these Bollywood icons has to be in some way associated with television."So is it going to be Shah Rukh or Salman for the main performance?"We're currently in negotiations with Shah Rukh and are hopeful that he'll agree. He's a source of inspiration not only in cinema but also on television. If you recall, he started his career on television with 'Fauji' and recently made a spectacular impact with 'Kaun Banega Crorepati'. So it would be wonderful to have him perform," says Khanna.Ekta added: "When I decided to have the awards I wanted television to get the recognition it deserves. Today I feel apart from a few filmmakers, television is able to deliver more glamour, grandeur and density than the average 'multiplex' film. The home medium has certainly come a long way. And that's what we'll be celebrating at our awards."Ekta's buddy and filmmaker Karan Johar will be felicitated at the awards and he will also host a segment of the awards.
