Datuk Shah Rukh Khan

Globalization - it is obvious the intention of the Malaysia Boleh spirit to expand its influence offshore. Riding on the recent Datukship awarding wave, the Datukship awarding spree has even gone overseas.
The Bollywood heart throb Shah Rwill from now be known as, Datuk Shah Rukh Khan.
Nope you don't need to win an Olympic medal from now on to be called a Datuk.
I wonder what's his contribution to have him earned that award?
