The Baadshah of Bollywood, Shah Rukh Khan, is reigning our hearts since the last 22 years. His crackling intensity and unrestrained enthusiasm has made him the King of Bollywood.
A self-made man, Shah Rukh Khan has won over countless hearts with his endearing charm and dimpled smile.
In an exclusive interview, the heart throb of millions reveals neverheard- before facts about how he met his better half, wife Gauri Khan and decided she was the one for him.
SRK states, “I like to believe that I can essay some roles better than the others and its not necessary that I am like that in real life.
I met Gauri at a school party. I could never ask a girl for a dance. There was a lady who was dancing with my friend and I asked him if he could ask her to dance with me. I danced with her and asked her for her telephone number.
It has never happened to me before or after that a girl has danced with me and given me her telephone number, so I decided to marry her.”
He believes in having long lasting relationships. The actor belong to the middle class thought of school.
“Gauri has been my first and last girlfriend,” says SRK adding, “SRK says, “ My journey has been very positive and dream-like. I am thankful to have Gauri and my children in my life.” Wanted to be Mr Bachchan “Hum jahaan pe khade ho jaate hai line wahin se shuru hoti hai..” goes a dialogue from one of Amitabh Bachchan’s biggest films, Kalia.
It’s incredible to note how after more than three decades, the dialogue still holds relevance in describing the persona of Amitabh Bachchan.
Such is the charisma of Mr. Bachchan that even at the age of 70, some of the biggest stars of Bollywood wish they could emulate his enigma.
Shah Rukh reveals, “The greatness of Mr Amitabh Bachchan is that you can describe your life span with Bachchan films.
You have to see it from the point of view of a guy who has grown up wanting to be Amitabh Bachchan.
There’s your parents that teach you about life and your school that teaches you stuff, and then there’s Mr Amitabh Bachchan, who you just want to be.
I’m not saying I wanted to be an actor like him or a star like him. I just wanted to be Mr. Amitabh Bachchan.”
