An
inspiration
for
many,
Shahrukh
Khan
says
struggling
actors
should
be
concerned
about
their
craft
rather
worrying
about
looks.
Asked
whether
he
would
like
to
give
any
tips
to
struggling
actors,
he
said,
"You
have
to
work
hard
and
focus
on
acting.
Yes
PR
and
portfolio
are
all
important,
but
acting
is
more
important.
Focus
on
acting."
Now
a
superstar,
Shahrukh
had
entered
the
movies
with
Deewana,
in
which
he
played
a
second
fiddle,
and
worked
his
way
up
to
be
a
superstar.
"Nobody
becomes
an
actor
by
planning
things.
Don't
focus
on
your
clothes
or
make-up.
Focus
on
your
acting," he
said
on
the
sidelines
of
his
birthday
celebrations.

who
turned
49
on
Sunday.
The
actor
rose
so
high
on
the
firmament
that
he
was
given
the
title
of
'Bollywood
Badshah'.
The
49-year-old
says
he
takes
pride
in
being
an
outsider
who
made
it
big
in
filmdom.
Shahrukh
said,
"I
feel
proud
about
the
fact
that
I
am
an
outsider.
This
industry
has
been
harsh
at
times
...
at
times
it
loves
you
and
at
times
it
punishes
you."
"There
are
a
lot
of
people
responsible
for
who
I
am
today.
I
don't
think
I
can
ever
play
character
Shahrukh
Khan
in
any
film
because
I
don't
think
my
personal
life
is
so
important.
I
think
I
am
too
small
a
person
and
have
a
long
way
to
go," added
SRK.
