I was against doing love stories, Yashji convinced me: SRK

Shahrukh Khan, Katrina Kaif - Jab Tak Hai JaanHe is considered Bollywood’s king of romance, but superstar Shah Rukh Khan says he was never keen on featuring in romantic sagas until filmmaker Yash Chopra convinced him.

“I was so anti doing love stories because I thought I am not good with them. I remember Yashji (Yash Chopra) tell me, till you love, nobody will love you back. So true” tweeted Shah Rukh who did grey roles in the beginning of his career.

Shahrukh, who started his tryst with showbiz as an army man in TV show “Fauji”, made his Bollywood debut with a romantic movie titled “Deewana” in 1992.

His first movie with Yash Chopra was the 1993 film “Darr”, in which he played an obsessed lover. Thereafter, under the Yash Raj Films banner, Shah Rukh went on to do films like “Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge” (1995), “Dil Toh Pagal Hai” (1997), “Mohabbatein” (2000), “Veer-Zaara” (2004), Chak De India (2007) and “Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi” (2008) — all of which cemented his loverboy image on the big screen.

Now, he has dabbled in romance yet again for “Jab Tak Hai Jaan”, Chopra’s last directorial venture. He has shared screen space with Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma in the movie, set to release on November 13th (Diwali weekend).

  • @ azhar gr8: Hum apke hain kaun ke baad PYAR KIYA TO DARNA KYA, JAB PYAR KISI SE HOTA HAI, BANDHAAN, GARAAV, TERE NAAM, NO ENTRY, WANTED.

  • @blockbuster wanted se pahle salman khan sangita bijlaani, aishwarya rai aur kaitrina se all time dhoka buster kha raha tha isliye govinda akshy aur mithun da se bhi jyada flop movie diya.

  • @Akki
    Boss you’re talking about those movies which didnt got a HIT verdict excluding bandhan,
    And i was talking about a blockbuster movies a not hit.

  • @akki
    And for ur kind info i was a salman’s fan till bodyguard but after watching DON.2 i had become a srk’s fan ,
    If ur a true movie lover then just watch veer-zaara once, might you would also changes to KING KHAN’S fan.

  • @all srk haters
    Srk had given biggest blockbusters like D.D.L.J.,
    kuch kuch hota hai, dil toh pagal hai, kabhi khushi kabhi gham, chak de india, om shanti om, rabne banadi jodi,
    And some of the blockbuster movies might be missing

  • @Azhar : Except DDLJ and KKHH…. All other movies were hits not blockbusters …. First go and learn the difference between a Hit, superhit, Highest grosser and A Blockbuster !!!!! then comment karna …

    Tere Gay ki Veer-zaara bhi dekhi aur Don2 …. Kuch khaas nahi wahi rona dhona, over acting and some faltu action …. :P

  • It seems y’all srk haters dont have a job…someone that really makes himself noticeable with his scrumptious talent God has bestowed him….
