शहरूख खान और तीन टाँग वाला बकरा

While driving to work I saw this Circus poster on the crossing. It cracks me up totally. For those of you who can't read Hindi I am going to translate :

See a Three legged Buck (male goat)
Of Shahrukh Khan's Fame
Apollo Circus
Daily Three shows
Noida
Blah Blah



Of course they are referring to Shahrukh Khan's TV show "Circus"; But thats not really the part that cracks me up; It's the order of the content. I think it's really funny that in the first line they are mentioning the Three Legged "Bakara" and that is being followed by Shahrukh Khan (even though in a bigger font). Apparently they know that their major attraction is the poor three legged animal.......why exactly are they using SRK is beyond me......It's OK if you don't find it funny....btw I will go for this..... I have never been to be a circus.....

Ah Akshay, Circus? No way, I hate clowns! But I love Shahrukh Khan. He is totally hot! Guess they used the bigger font cos they know his name is an eye catcher even though he is not the star attraction at the circus.

I guess the circus ppl fall in my category too.. they too may find a three legged bakra funnier and/or interesting than SRK ;)
