King Khan's sojourn
He came, he saw and he conquered the world, he is none other than our very own King Khan of Bollywood- Shahrukh Khan. The man certainly needs no introduction as his every move becomes breaking news. Besides his magnetic presence on screen, his personal life too has been equally appealing to his fans. Mr and Mrs Khan"s immortal love-story is the Rome Juliet of modern age, albeit with a happy ending. His love-filled real life is probably the secret of the eternal love stories that he creates on reel.
Deewana:
Made
us
Deewana
After
his
tele-stints
he
happened
to
Bollywood
with
the
film
Deewana.
His
un-groomed
personality
with
lanky
body
and
weird
hairdo
though
were
uncool,
but
his
unconventional
acting
charmed
the
audience.
Barring
the
lumberjack
dancing
moves
of
Badshah
Khan,
the
song
Aisi
Deewangi…
sure
struck
a
chord
with
the
audience.
Though
the
stardom
was
unforeseen
the
then
promising
actor
with
his
circussomersaults
was
certainly
'different".
Raju
Ban
Gaya
Gentleman:
Made
Shahrukh
a
gentleman
As
Raju,
Shahrukh
became
the
most
empathized
actor
on
celluloid.
He
was
no
larger
than
life
hero
in
the
film
who
jumps
off
the
cliff
and
brushes
off
10-15
goons
at
once
with
his
muscular
arms.
In
fact
he
showed
up
as
a
very
ordinary
guy
who
is
battling
within
himself
to
make
choices
in
life.
The
youth
of
90s
could
identify
with
Raju
who
becomes
'Gentleman" at
the
cost
of
love
and
relations.
Dil
hai
mera
Deewana
showcased
the
innocent
charms
of
a
young
boy
with
big
ambitions.
He
gave
a
whole
new
meaning
to
the
heroism
in
the
Hindi
cinema
with
this
film,
not
to
say
a
new
disease
Loveria
too!
Baazigar:
Baazigar
Badshah
Romancing
two
heroines
on
the
screen
only
to
ruin
them
later...
An
impossible
idea
of
anti-love
clicked
big
time
for
SRK.
The
audience
showered
their
love
on
him,
that"s
the
magic
of
being
Mr.
Khan.
Apparently
audience
loved
Shahrukh
above
everything,
so
much
so,
that
pushing
innocent
Shilpa
from
the
building
terrace
was
excusable
as
after
all
he
was
the
prince
charming
on
a
white
horse
for
Kajol,
as
she
sways
singing
Baazigar.
Darr:
Charismatic
K…K…King
Khan
Love
him,
or
hate
him,
you
just
can"t
ignore
him,
the
acceptance
of
SRK
as
a
bad-boy
in
the
film
Darr
confirms
the
very
fact.
He
became
an
obsession
of
Bollywood
after
his
obsessed
lover
act
in
the
film.
His
fond-style
of
addressing
his
lady
love
K…K…Kiran
became
a
rage.
Jaadu
Teri
Nazar
became
a
cult
classic
with
the
innocent
Juhi
being
led
on
by
her
silent
admirer.
Wishes
are
fulfilled
in
Tu
Mere
Samnewhich
sees
Shahrukh
not
believing
his
luck
that
he
is
actually
with
his
love.
Dilwale
Dulhania
Le
Jayenge:
Raj
is
still
ruling!
The
magic
of
'Raj" on
celluloid
is
still
running
high.
The
love
story
of
Raj
and
Simran
is
among
the
few
immortal
stories
of
Hindi
cinema
that
will
liven
up
the
silver
screen
and
several
hearts
for
many
decades
to
come.
Raj-
a
directionless
brat
of
Indian
origin
on
foreign
land,
when
comes
to
India
following
his
love,
imparts
all
the
desi-morals
so
convincingly
that
not
only
several
Simran"s,
but
also
their
mother
across
the
globe
fell
in
love
with
him.
There
are
generations
of
Simrans
awaiting
Raj
humming
the
romantic
track
'Tujhe
Dekha
Toh
Yeh
Jana
Sanam…"
SRK
with
his
naughty
smile,
strumming
mandolin
made
many
a
heart
say
Ruk
Ja
O
Dil.
Pardes:
Issi
Desh
Mein
Hai
Mera
Dil
Every
time
he
loved
his
women,
he
loved
them
unconditionally
but
portrayed
them
differently
onscreen.
In
Pardes
he
falls
in
love
with
Ganga"s
simplicity
at
the
very
first
sight
but
contained
himself
till
the
end.
His
love-filled
eyes
peeping
through
the
arc
of
guitar
conveyed
his
unspoken
state
so
strongly
that
Ganga
ultimately
finds
solace
in
his
arm.
His
rage
at
not
being
able
to
express
his
love
is
eloquently
expressed
in
Yeh
Dil
Deewana.
Thus
he
etched
out
yet
another
definition
to
love
–
If
you
love
her
so
dearly
no
matter
where
she
is,
she
will
come
back
to
you.
Yes
Boss:
Bas
Itna
Sa
Kwaab
Hai
In
the
song
Chand
tara....undeniably
SRK
was
very
much
in
his
element.
It
looked
like
he
is
once
again
living
the
time
when
his
dreams
sounded
hazy
to
others.
He
was
all
raring
to
go
and
catch
the
stars
above,
meant
only
for
him.
The
madness
he
portrays
makes
it
evident
that
he
could
go
to
any
length
to
achieve
his
treasured
dream.
Whereas
in
Main
Koi
Aisa
Geet
he
returns
to
his
sweet
lover
boy
image
and
woos
a
confused
Juhi
with
his
darling
antics
and
brings
the
magic
out
of
the
hat!
Dil
Se…
The
unbeatable
groovy
number
Chhaiyya
Chhaiyya
rocked
the
music
charts
that
very
year.
The
song
became
popular
for
its
unconventionality
-
SRK
and
Malaika
Arora
Khan
danced
full-throttle
on
the
top
of
a
moving
train.
Apart
from
SRK"s
adventurous
performance
on
this
Sufi
number,
he
also
stupendously
performed
a
formation
dance
with
Manisha
Koirala
on
Satrangi
Re…his
every
expression
conveyed
that
a
selfless
love
is
to
get
destroyed
with
her!
Kuch
Kuch
Hota
Hai:
Kuch
Kuch
happened
all
over
He
won
million
hearts
when
he
sheepishly
lost
the
basketball
match
against
Anjali
or
when
he
failed
to
realize
his
underlying
love
for
her
in
the
presence
of
the
glazing
beauty
of
sensuous
Tina.
We
all
experienced
the
strange
'Kuch
Kuch" feeling
watching
Anjali
and
Rahul
accidentally
realizing
their
long
buried
feelings
for
each
other
while
dancing
under
umbrella
all
drenched
in
rain.
As
Rahul,
he
distinctly
re-defined
friendship
and
love
in
the
film.
Asoka:
King
as
King
King
Khan
in
his
late
30s
pushed
all
his
hair
back,
put
the
raj-tilak
on
his
bare
forehead
and
donned
the
attire
of
the
brave
emperor
Asoka.
The
most
reminiscing
song
sequence
Chhuke
Bole
Chhunana
Mujhe…a
love
making
duet
with
the
very
young
and
lovely
Kareena
Kapoor
exemplifies
the
most
elegant
period-romance
in
the
history
of
Hindi
cinema.
Kabhi
Khushi
Kabhi
Ghum:
All
in
the
family
SRK
played
the
elder
son
in
the
star
studded
family
in
the
film
K3G
where
the
Shehanshan
and
the
Badshah
of
Bollywood
shared
screen
space
as
father
and
son.
Besides
the
film
being
heavy
duty
emotional
drama
SRK-Kajol
romantic
pair
did
its
share
of
magic.
Their
dream
sequence
in
the
song
Sooraj
Hua
Madham…
manifested
the
beauty
of
their
onscreen
togetherness
once
again.
Veer-Zaara:
Old
is
still
gold
Veer
and
his
captivating
poetry
in
the
end
of
the
film
left
us
awed
for
the
perspective
that
he
gave
towards
love
-
for
that
we
all
have
to
rise
far
above
the
regional
boundaries.
In
the
court
when
he
recites
the
poetry,
his
voice
certainly
conveyed
the
ignorance
that
one
develops
towards
the
material
world
when
in
love.
Giving
solace,
Shahrukh
convinces
Preity
Main
Yahaan
Hoon
and
makes
her
realize
he
is
only
for
her
in
Tere
Liye.
Kabhi
Alvida
Naa
Kehna:
SRK
glorifying
act
We
have
only
looked
down
upon
the
extramarital
relations,
considering
it
scurrilous
but
watching
SRK
falling
for
a
married
woman
in
the
song
Mitwa
looked
very
convincing.
May
be
only
because
he
is
SRK!
His
open
arm
act
in
the
middle
of
the
stadium
manifests
the
sheer
incompleteness
in
his
life
without
his
'soul" mate.
Though
the
film
faced
flaks
on
moral
grounds,
but
SRK"s
unfolding
dilemma
in
the
film
exposed
several
facets
that
were
previously
overlooked.
Don
-
The
Chase
Begins
Again
Who
else
could
have
matched
the
demure
of
Big
B,
in
the
remake
version
of
the
Amitabh
Bachchan
starrer
cult
classic
'Don"!
Matching
the
steps
of
Big
B,
Shahrukh
effortlessly
steeped
into
his
shoes
and
song
in
Khaike
Paan
Banaraswala.
Shahrukh
Khan
gave
his
panache
to
the
stylish
track
Main
Hoon
Don
and
made
bad
boys
look
tasteful
like
never
before,
he
gave
a
class
to
Bollywood
mafia.
Om
Shanti
Om
Only
King
Khan
could
have
done
this,
rehashing
a
70ish
concept
to
multiplex
audience
was
a
Herculean
task,
but
Shahrukh
can!
He
made
the
audience
of
realistic-cinema
believe
in
the
tale
of
re-births.
Audience
who
were
scoffing
at
SRK"s
retro-side,
dropped
jaws
with
the
drop
of
his
shirt,
to
all
our
surprise
his
'Dard-e-disco"
six-packs
baring
act
was
a
killer
rage.
It
made
girls
drool
over
his
bare
cuts
and
made
men
go
green
with
envy.
Ahem!
A
lot
of
Bollywood
biggies
reworked
their
fitness
regime
to
match
up
to
the
king
and
his
abs.
Rab
Ne
Bana
Di
Jodi
SRK
played
a
recluse
officer
in
the
film
but
disguises
himself
to
keep
his
high
flier
wife
happy.
Juggling
between
the
geek
and
the
hunk
act
he
made
the
audience
and
finally
his
onscreen
wife
fall
for
him.
His
geeky
look
may
not
have
appealed
to
his
wife,
but
the
audience
Haule
Haule
fell
in
love
with
him,
and
found
his
dorky
look
'cute"!
It
was
a
delight
for
them
to
see
him
in
a
changed
avatar
-
simple
trouser
and
shirt
with
curt
moustache.
Whereas
Dance
Pe
Chance
was
a
faint
revisit
to
the
Rahul
days
of
Kuch
Kuch!
