No surgery for Shah Rukh Khan
Shah Rukh Khan, who was injured in a minor accident on set in Mumbai last week, won't undergo surgery but will need physiotherapy, his doctor says. On January 23, a heavy door fell on the actor while he was filming Farah Khan's Happy New Year. He was taken to hospital for treatment and discharged two hours later, after which he went back to work. "We examined his injuries and we concluded that no surgery was required," his doctor, Ali Irani, told India Today. "We will allow the bruises to heal naturally, along with physiotherapy, which he will have to undergo at least twice a day." – The National staff

I feel there are a lot of great opportunities and exciting projects after Mötley." – AFP
Lorde complains about media attention
The New Zealand pop sensation Lorde complained about the "frightening" price of fame on Wednesday after a media pack jostled her when she returned home following her Grammy success. The 17-year-old, who earlier this week won Grammys for Song of the Year and Best Solo Pop Performance for her chart-topping Royals, said she was saddened at the reception she received after touching down at Auckland airport. "NZ media almost pushed over myself and my family at the airport this morning in order to get their shots. Bit of a sad welcome if I'm honest," she said in a series of tweets which were later deleted. "I know that success comes with a price tag. It just sucks when you see that in your tiny home country where you previously felt safe." – AFP
