I have only done 5 romantic films: Shahrukh Khan

Shahrukh Khan

Excerpts from a group interview with Shahrukh Khan last evening.

King of Romance?

  • SRK: Honestly, I think acting is my forte. I think this is oversimplification – five out of the 75 films that I have done have been romantic. They have done well, so have the other ones.

Jab Tak Hai Jaan is a modern take on love

  • SRK: Yashji wanted to make love stories. He said that we have had enough of these fighting films. I believed in him…… (with this film) he said he wanted to make a simple yet complicated film on human relations. It is a very modern interpretation (of love). (But) I think love remains the same

His definition of ‘true love’

  • SRK: You should sit with who you love… you don’t need anything else… beach, candle, a car or anything. When you love someone, you don’t need anything else. The fact that you do need other things means that you don’t love that person,” said the actor who is happily married to Gauri.

On his larger-than-life screen persona

  • SRK: You will only know who I am from the impression you make of me from my films. You will never get to know how I really am because you don’t know me, neither do you spend time with me. And my larger than life image is so big that if I romance well, you will feel that I am a romantic. My image is so big already that whatever you think of me will be based on your perception of me from my films.

More than a brand, just an actor

  • SRK: I feel that more than the brand, I just try to enjoy my acting. I have been enjoying it since 20 years. I don’t think I will stop soon. Till the time I get happiness, I will do it. Very few people get the chance of doing what they want to do, and very few get the chance of doing new things every day. Sometimes I am romantic, sometimes I am dancing, fighting…going to new places….so I cherish these moments. I get excited and this shows on screen. Whatever role you give me, I will make it out to be something. It is like a challenge to me when I can add something.

  • Why is peoples minds here infected with hate against a person who did not do nothing to them. Shahrukh Khan, Aamir Khan, Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar, Hritikh Roshan, Ranbir Kappor, Ajay Devgn, Imran Hashmi are all top class actors. How comes American people do not resort to cheap antics like our own people who blog and comment on websites to negate someone who they can’t reach in terms of huge success. Cheap sayins like ‘SRK GAY, Aamir Midget, Salman Murderer and Joker Kumar’ shows how dumb and stupid some people are. They are movie stars if you hate them don’t go and watch their movies, and if you like them you do not have to idolise them. You must have something better to do in your petty lives then negating others. Anyway the top grossers of the year will be as follows:

    Ek Tha Tiger 186cr BB
    JTHJ – 180-186cr BB
    Dabangg 2 – 165cr BB
    Rowdy Rathore – 136cr BB
    Agneepath – 123cr Super HIT
    Talaash – 118cr Super HIT
    Housefull 2 – 116cr Super HIT
    Khiladi 786 – 115cr Super HIT
    Barfi – 108 cr Super HIT
    Bol Bachchan – 100crs HIT

  • some of shahrukh’s films could not be considered as some romantic films because they were some cocktail films like DDLJ, Mohabbetain, Dil To Paagal Hai. KKHH was a mixed feelings for 2 women, not a pure love for one.
    His romantic roles which he played in some movies, and as I remember, are the following and which based on a (strong love): Devdas, Veer Zarah, Dil Se and Deewana. 4 films and maybe his upcoming film too, so a total of 5 romantic films.

    About his personality: shahrukh himself can’t describe what and how he is in fact: he’s a cocktail person which u can find (everything) in his character.. he’s what we see in his films. And no matter what he is.. we love him.. one Shahrukh in this world and there would never be any copy of him, neither now, nor in future.
