Yesterday's football World Cup finale kept most of Bollywood awake till the wee hours of morning as the match ran into extra time where Germany finally managed to score the lone goal of the match and clinch the title and cup. Among the many who were awake to catch the action live, there were some football illiterates too. Prime among them being Karan Johar who tweeted that he was a wannabe and his mother knew more about the game than him.
Am officially pronouncing myself as wannabe....watching the match only because the world is....

This tweet attracted the attention of none other King Khan Shah Rukh Khan who is himself a big football fanatic having played the game in his school days.
Replied SRK to Karan
@karanjohar it's ok to accept.V all like what's 'happening'. Just so u know Germany in White Argentima in Blue. The round thing is the ball.

With no goals being scored in half time, a drowsy Karan self reflected on whether to sleep or stay awake.
Half time....now either i sleep or continue my role play of a footie fanatic!!! I think the latter...why drop the act now!!!

This tweet was greeted by a witty repartee from SRK who tweeted a glamorous image of a siren playing football.

Wonder if this football bonding between the twosome will translate into a cinematic bonding like the days of yore.
