While
Shah
Rukh
Khan
is
known
for
his
witty
interviews
and
maintaining
cool
equation
with
journalists
and
interviewers,
there
have
been
times
when
the
actor
was
put
in
a
tough
spot
and
he
refused
to
entertain
journalists
with
wrong
intentions.
Today,
we
bring
to
you
an
old
interview
of
Shah
Rukh,
wherein
he
had
clarified
why
he
refused
to
do
photo
magazines
shoot
before
his
film
release...
In
2012,
while
speaking
to
Filmfare,
Shah
Rukh
had
said
that
he
didn't
want
to
talk
to
any
film
magazine
till
his
film
was
released.
He
wanted
journalists
to
approach
him
only
after
seeing
his
work.
He
said,
"Also,
I
was
put
off
by
certain
journalists
who
are
so
pompous
they
believe
they
can
make
or
break
a
star.
If
publicity
is
everything,
all
those
actors
who
give
fantastic
interviews
would
be
superstars.
But
no,
Mr.
Bachchan,
who
the
press
shunned
for
years,
is
still
the
reigning
no.1."
He
further
added
that
he
truly
believes
there
is
no
substitute
for
good
work,
and
interviews
and
magazine
covers
don't
make
anyone
a
good
actor.
"Does
taking
off
your
clothes
for
photographs
prove
your
virility?
Are
you
a
macho
hero
only
if
you
pose
for
magazine
covers
with
five
girls
clinging
to
you?
If
other
want
to
do
it
they
are
welcome,
I'll
stick
to
my
work
and
keep
my
private
life
as
private
as
possible," said
SRK.
With
respect
to
work,
Shah
Rukh
will
next
be
seen
in
YRF's
Pathaan,
alongside
Deepika
Padukone
and
John
Abraham.
A
couple
of
days
ago,
he
shared
the
teaser
of
the
film,
which
is
slated
to
be
released
in
theatres
on
January
25,
2023.
