Books on SRK

Over the years, numerous books have been written about Shah Rukh. Therefore, this post seems to be mandatory! If you have read any of these, feel free to leave a comment about it or review it on Amazon! Also, I will try to update this list as often as possible because books keep on rolling out.

MNIK California Locations

Being shot in California, especially Bay Area, I thought I'd do some research on the locations where MNIK was shot. Here is my report!


  1. Tarun Mansukhani's electronics' shop in Downtown LA
  2. Karma Salon in SF (Mason/Pacific) Now restaurant Lalola Bar De Tapas
  3. American Autistic Society, is actually Autistic Society of America (San Carlos)
  4. Banville home, Westover Ct/Westover Dr (Pleasant Hill)
  5. diPietro Todd Salon (2239 Filmore St. SF)
  6. North Bay Movers, shown during move to Banville. (Sonoma County co. Santa Rosa)
  7. Rizwan’s ATM machine (Los Angeles, The Plaza Fire House)
  8. Hair By Mandira Khan, supposed to be in Banville (originally is called Spunk Salon in San Francisco, 4147 19th St)
  9. I-5 (not sure about which bound)
  10. Rizwan's "repair almost anything" sign scene (Rosamond, CA)
  11. The Mosque's exterior is actually different than its interior. The Mosque shown is called Masjid Abu Bakr Siddiq (29414 Mission Blvd. Hayward, CA)
  12. Mandira lets go of balloons in the field (Morgan Hill, CA) Will find details on which field.
  13. Rizwan's sudden affection for Mandira -deleted scene- (Dolores Park, SF)
Misc. locations, reported by media (I need to verify which scenes :P )
Novato, CA
Wave Organ near Crissy Field
Pierce and Hayes
CBS5 studio
Children's Discovery Museum in San Jose
State Capitol, Sacramento *Atlanta capitol in film*
Livermore
Healdsburg  (Greens Drive near Tayman Park golf course) (Healdsburg Plaza) [The unassuming and somewhat ordinary house on Greens Drive, where the film crew is shooting most of the backyard scenes, is owned by former Healdsburg Mayor Lisa Schaffner. Interior scenes are being shot next door.]
Sonoma 



And it's no longer a secret that there is no such city of Banville. The real name is Danville where I don't think the movie was even shot at. Danville is a city in Contra Costa county.
The rest you can figure out. It's funny that Karan put San Francisco and Los Angeles only in the end credits although he shot it all around California. Only wish he'd have shot at my home lol

How do I know all these? I'm a local!
