‘Fifty percent of my films have flopped’ says Shahrukh Khan

Bollywood superstar Shahrukh Khan says, even though 50 percent of his films have flopped at the box office, his failures are still close to his heart and he is happy to still be a star.

“It has been an amazing journey till now. It is fantastic time to be here. I have done around 70-80 films out of which 50 percent are flops, still I am star.. and those films are close to me” the actor said, while talking to the media about his journey in the film industry.

When asked about his favourite films, Khan said “My favourite film is Paheli (2005), Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani (2000). The film that goes a little wrong that should be your favourite and you should be proud of these films.”

Shahrukh also credited all the filmmakers and actors from the industry for taking the industry forward.

“There are so many wonderful filmmakers and actors who are edgy and want to take risk, chances and take Indian cinema forward, the extent to which Indian cinema has shifted from just being a trend and fad internationally to becoming part and parcel” he said.

  • hu hu hu hu hu,haters are thinking what SRK said that is true from words to words,sorry guyz HE IS A SO DOWN TO EARTH PERSON that he want to give inspiration to other flop stars but unfortunately other stars took this into wrong meaning,he said he did 70-80 films,while in lead roles he did 55 films,among which 17-18 are flops,rest are average/hits/bbs.because if said so then also no one could show how he gave 50% flops,and it is true he gave least flops to industry that’s why we are proud of him.even his flops are more better than other star’s hits.JUST A SALUTE TO KING KHAN.haters just try to learn from this person as much as you can.

    @babaji ka thullu,no need to cry for these,lol.

    @hrithik,@sky,please don’t cry.look I’m here and you still couldn’t identify what is joke and seriousness,if SRK gave 50% flops,then amir and salman gave 65% and 78% flops respectively and no comments for akshay kumar,lol.

  • Being bakra is better than being 50% flops.Don’t forget to watch sharukh as bakra & his autobiography on screen
    this April 25.

  • What should I say? SRK being honest?? Yes, he is honest. Still I see arrogance in his statement. He attached ‘I am still a star.’ SRK, you are not just a star of Indian cinema, but a mega star. But you needn’t say it by yourself. We know it.

    As per my analysis, SRK’s failure ratio is 41%, while Salman’s is 51%. (Considering Below Averages, Flops and Disasters in one category). Hence, SRK’s success ratio is 59%, whereas Salman’s is 49%. (Considering ATBB, BB, Super Hits, Hits, Semi-Hit, Above Average, Average in one category).

    Indicine should change its domain name to srkfanclub dot com..

    Yo! SRK has done it again. Non-SRK fans, no need to wait for Happy New Year. Because it is an unofficial remake or adaption of 1960 Hollywood film, Lewis Milestones’ Ocean’s 11. (Let’s say for example, in Ocean’s 11, the story was narrated as 6+5=11, Farah will narrate it as 5+6=11). She will just change narration of the stroy a little. That is Farah at her best!!

    @nipun, to me, Laila and Aldyz (like Romance_new-yr and Vera) are two different IDs of the same person. Besides, she seems to be an Indonesian. That’s why she sometimes mispell Hrithik’s name.

    Final word, Being Bakra is better Being Human…..I am fan of neither Being Bakra nor Being Human. I dislike both. Being Human is a non-actor.

  • Hahaha! SRK fans, now admit that every actor has a fair share of failure ratio. Or prove your great icon to be wrong.
    @Indicine, you said you don’t allow different Name-Callings. But you have allowed an abusive comment against Salman by @ashwin. Or you don’t allow different Name-Callings only against SRK???? Why double standard?? Please answer…
    @ashwin, mind your language if you don’t want your icon be abused or insulted!

    And waiting for the movie, Yeh Hai Bakrapur…

  • @,nipun, Am I?
    @sky,most of the time I donot visit but I never said I don’t visit salman related post,I said I never write unnecessarily rubbish on his post .anyway, Have u seen me so occasionally comment on his post?
    @yeh hai bakrapur,u go and take all bakras with u it only can provide entertainment to the goats.

  • @laila : You all srk fans are biggest hypocrites n double standards cheapos. I am sure if Salman or Aamir had said same then srk fans would have been chanting flop actors slogan. Suddenly, down to earth, simplicity n being humble are being chanted by srk fans.

    @sss : Read my above lines you STML patient !!!!!!

  • @indicine, where are the news of Rajshri productions movie signing sonam kapoor, giving satellite rights to Salman and other happening news in bollywood?

    it seems you are simply paid to put an article everyday on every mundane issues regarding srk.

    pathetic.

    we know all needs money, but this site is becoming more of a starstruck fan website than bollywood entertainment news.

  • @nipun
    Looking at choice of movies you liked … i am damn sure you will love Kal Ho Naa Hoo … Its is vry nice movie and some of the scences were superbly executed by SRK especially the emotional ones

  • really impressed and amazed to see a king with highest success ratio saying that his 50% films r flop….. hatssssssssofffffff king khan…sooooooo down 2 earth
    take a bow shah

  • the films which didn’t do well for shahrukh and were “average” or not some hit films, which I liked and considered as his best was Dil Se.. that’s his best.. I loved Paheli, but not Phir bi Dil Hai Hindustani ( I loved the song as title, PbDhH and till today.. I listen to this song and I got it in my I Pod)

    aamir has 16 flops(42%) out of 38 films (lead roles) in 25 years.

    SRK has 18 flops out(32%) of 55 films (lead roles) in 22 years.

    salman has 32 flops(50%) out of 64 films(lead roles) in 24 years.

    so again I am requesting to find out losers considering all bb,super hits,hits,but main thing is no. of flops in total career.also requesting to find out domestic,overseas,worldwide stars.

    NOTE:according to old boi:CE,ghajini,dabang showed atbb which are bb now.salman’s films partner showed bb but now it is super hit.no entry(sa),hssh showed superhits while hssh showed bb and ne remains unchanged.similarly SRK’s VZ,MB,CDI showed bb which are now super hits.so all are according to old boi.above average movies are semi-hits.
