Bollywood is on it's way in Apollo 11.

BELIEVE it or not, but a crazy Australian fan “buys” Shah Rukh Khan a piece of the moon every year on his birthday.

“Yes, an Australian lady buys a little land on the moon for me every year on my birthday. She has been buying it for a while now and I get these certificates from the Lunar Republic Society,” Shah Rukh Khan told a newspaper.

The Bollywood star who celebrated his 44th birthday on Monday has apparently met his fan and she keeps in touch with him all year through mail.

“She writes me colourful e-mail (in the sense one line is red, one is blue and so on).

“I feel blessed to have the love of so many people worldwide,” he said.

According to one online lunar real estate agency, www.lunarregistry.com , the “Sea of Tranquility” is the most sought-after address on the moon.

Now that's adding insult to injury. I mean. Come on. We all know Earth is relatively small in the Universe and the population is growing at a steady rate. But having a land on the Moon? That's nuts. Not only the moon is much smaller than the small Earth, there's no way for one to live up there!

Why have your own land on the moon? To live there during the summer? To escape from the hustle and bustle of Earth life? To shoot a new Bollywood movie on the moon?

Wait. The third proposal sounds cool. Imagine dancing and singing on the moon. Not just the couple. Don't forget the many back-up dancers. And they're floating around. In colourful sari. Spacesuits sari. Now, that would be an Academy Award winning movie. Would it fall under a Sci-fi play?

Sigh.. Money can indeed by everything. I w0nder what will happen if the moon is fully bought? Will astronauts pay to step on the moon? Probably a good investment.
