Is Shahrukh Copying Javed Jaffrey ?

Zor Ka Jhatka kick starts with a thematic title track, reminiscent of Thums Up (Taste the thunder), a popular beverage, jingle followed by SRK making an expected superstar entry amidst neon green laser lights and some filmi dialoguebaazi,  ‘Kisi ke paas Katrina, kisi ke paas Kareena hai. Mere paas Khabreena hai.’ He means co-host Saumya Tandon who spends most of her screen time on field where the action is, namely Argentina.
If you’ve caught a glimpse of Takeshi’s Castle on Pogo, bolstered with a rocking commentary in Javed Jaffrey’s booming baritone, you know how it goes — narrow ramps, dizzy spinners, tricky trampolines, icky mud pools and numerous water bodies to cross and combat in varying capacities to claim top spot.
Zor Ka Jhatka works along the same lines with SRK lending a starry hand. Only he’s not as sympathetic as before. The new format requires him to mock, tease and ridicule every time a contestant bobs his/her head or trips clumsily into the pool.  
SRK starts off a tad stiff, trying too hard and hamming his lines but loosens up as the show progresses. Since his job description demands passing taunting remarks at the bumbling contestant in jest, it’s almost like a dress rehearsal of an awards function for the actor who’s done a great deal of this nature along with Saif Ali Khan.
Apart from name-calling, there’s an obvious effort to make naughty jokes that range from coarse ‘Sab ke ‘balls’ ki baat nahi arre arre sabke ‘bas’ ki baat nahi’ or ‘Ande toot gaye’ (after a contestant bangs his sensitive area into a trampoline) to pedestrian ‘GPL yaane Grand Pichwada Laat’ or ‘Mujhe personally gandi ladkiyan bahut achi lagti hain.’ Source
