Looks like. But the biggies - the Aamir Khans and the Aishwarya Bachchans are yet to get there. Aamir's website has a message from the actor saying that he is in the process of putting the website together.

SRK's business manager Karuna also says that, "He is keen on launching his official website and we are in the process of developing it."

Preity Zinta and Rani Mukerji have numerous fan sites but no official sites of their own. Aishwarya Bachchan, used to have an elaborate website, which is non-operational now. Her business manager Hari Singh says, "Aishwarya's website was discontinued five months back, since she wanted to upgrade it. Soon she got busy in her personal life, the website will soon be operational."
