Fauji
(1988)
"It
was
the
first
time
I
saw
the
smiles
I
could
bring
to
the
faces
of
people
I
met
on
the
streets..." reminisces
SRK
who
set
hearts
aflutter
and
became
an
"almost
celebrity"
playing
Abhimanyu
Roy
in
Colonel
Kapoor's
true-to-life
serial
on
our
armed
forces.
Deewana
(1992)
"I
liked
the
characters
in
Deewana
and
Chamatkar
a
lot
because
they
were
essentially
simple
folk..." maintains
SRK
as
he
rewinds
to
the
Rishi
Kapoor-Divya
Bharati
starrer
that
earned
him
his
first
award-for
Best
Debut.
Baazigar
(1993),
Darr-A
Love
Story
(1993)Anjaam
(1994)
"The
Vicky
of
Baazigar
was
a
psychopath-irrational,
illogical
and
abnormal.
He
doesn't
kill
for
his
country
or
a
system
gone
wrong.
He
doesn't
kill
for
love
or
even
revenge
but
for
himself.
He
was
completely
insane
and
inhuman.
The
killer
in
Darr
was
a
loser
who
took
his
loss
personally
and
turned
vicious.
You
pity
him,
sympathise,
even
empathise
with
him.
Anjaam,
the
first
negative
role
I'd
signed,
was
a
very
morbid
film
but
the
killer
I
played
was
more
human
than
Vicky.
A
spoilt,
jealous,
slightly
demented
rich
boy.
Rahul
Rawali
wanted
the
character
to
come
as
a
surprise
but
after
Baazigar
and
Darr
there
was
nothing
new
to
him..."
SRK
analyses
his
trend-setting
troika
of
'bad
man' roles.
Baazigar
fetched
him
his
first
Best
Actor
Award
Kabhi
Haan
Kabhi
Naa
(1994)
"People
say
I
had
negative
roles
in
Baazigar,
Darr
and
Anjaam
but
I
think
KHKN
was
my
first
anti
hero
film.
Sunil
was
a
failure...
He
flunked
exams,
cheated
and
even
lost
the
girl.
Yet,
I
felt
close
to
him.
I
could
identify
with
almost
every
shot,
every
emotion,
which
wasn't
a
good
thing
because
the
scene
where
I
see
Deepak
Tijori
kissing
Suchitra
Krishnamoorthy
shook
me
so
much
(because
I
kept
seeing
Gauri's
face
in
Anna)
that
I
just
ran
away.
It
was
a
close-up
and
just
ran
away
from
the
camera..." confesses
SRK
who
liked
that
film
so
badly
he
even
distributed
it.
He
bagged
the
Critics
Choice
Award
for
a
straight-from-the-heart
performance.
Dilwale
Dulhania
Le
Jayenge
(1995)
"Raj
and
Simran's
love
story
reminded
me
of
the
time
I
was
courting
Gauri.
We
had
our
share
of
family
problems
too.
But
eventually
I
was
able
to
take
my
dulhania
with
her
family's
blessings.
Raj
was
a
dilwala
with
a
heart
and
I
can
see
him
and
Simran
growing
old
together.
Still
very
much
in
love...Still
having
a
lot
of
fun." Muses
SRK
as
he
reflects
on
Aditya
Chopra's
directorial
debut
and
another
award-wining
act
that
changed
his
image
form
killer
to
a
lover.
DDLJ
also
made
him
and
Kajol
Hindi
cinema's
Jodi
No.

Dil
To
Pagal
Hai
(1997)
"In
this
film
I
have
to
confess
that
my
co-artistes,
Madhuri
Dixit
and
Karisma
Kapoor
were
much
better
than
I
was
and
it
was
their
love
that
made
Rahul
memorable..."
says
Shah
Rukh
of
another
Best
Actor
performance.
Kuch
Kuch
Hota
Hai
(1998)
"This
was
the
first
time
I
was
playing
daddy
and
I
know
Rahul
is
the
kind
of
daddy
I
want
to
be
to
Aryan
because
he
reminded
me
of
my
dad.
The
first
day
I
was
shooting
for
the
film
at
Mehboob
Studio.
I
got
the
news
that
Gauri
was
pregnant.
I
was
still
shooting
for
the
film
when
Aryan
was
born.
So
I've
gone
through
the
process
of
becoming
a
father
myself
during
the
making
of
KKHH..."
SRK
on
Karan
Johan's
directorial
debut
for
which
he
was
once
again
adjudged
Best
Actor.

"My
home
productions
have
all
been
different
from
the
norm
in
their
own
way.
At
the
same
time
they
have
been
enjoyable
films.
Our
aim
is
to
make
the
kind
of
cinema
we
like." SRK
talks
of
his
experiences
as
a
producer.
Devdas
(2002)
"Devdas
is
a
very
special
film
in
the
history
of
Indian
cinema
and
the
chance
to
interpret
it
as
a
person
of
today's
generation
was
irresistible..."
SRK
says
of
Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali's
award-winning
film
brought
remakes
back
into
vogue.
Swades
(2004)
"Swades
was
a
film
that
needed
to
be
made.
It
was
a
film
about
today...
A
film
about
'Indianness'...
A
film
about
how
the
educated
middle
class
could
help
the
country..." SRK
elaborates
on
the
eye-opening
social.
Veer-Zaara
(2004)
"I'd
had
enough
of
Indian
films
deriding
and
decimating
Pakistan.
I
knew
in
my
heart
that
this
was
not
a
reflection
of
true
sentiment.
We
have
a
shared
history
that
is
hard
to
ignore.
Veer-Zaara
cut
across
borders
and
man-made
boundaries.
It
was
about
the
goodness
of
love..."
SRK
waxes
eloquent
about
the
film
that
brought
Yash
Chopra
out
of
self-imposed
hibernation
and
challenged
SRK
with
the
role
of
a
much
older
man
who
was
a
prisoner-of-war.
Kabhi
Alvida
Naa
Kehna
(2006)
"From
the
outside
Gauri
and
I
may
seem
like
a
happily-married
couple
but
like
any
two
people
working
or
living
together,
we
also
have
our
share
of
issues.
It's
just
that
we
have
resolved
most
of
these
issues
completely,"
SRK
points
explaining
how
KANK
is
in
no
way
close
to
life.
Don
(2006)
"Don
is
a
dream
come
true.
It
is
my
tribute
to
Amitabh
Bachchan.
Don
is
the
king
of
film
I
grew
up
on,
and
today,
I
feel
blessed
that
I
can
mouth
lines
that
have
become
a
part
of
Hindi
film
folklore
like,
'Don
ko
pakadna
mushkil
nahin,
namumkin
hai..." SRK
on
the
year's
blockbuster.
