As King Khan has never been a part of biopic, when a leading daily asked him about which iconic personality's life story would he like to bring alive on the big screen, the actor quipped, "I'd love to essay Guru Dutt saab's life."

Well, we believe that it would be quite interesting to watch SRK step into Guru Dutt's shoes! What do you guys think?

In the same interview, Shahrukh also spoke about the variations in his role. He said, "People say I play Shah Rukh Khan on screen. That my roles are a means to an end. Not true. My work defines me. But I have no identity of my own. It's difficult being Shah Rukh Khan. I have been trying to be him for so many years. I'm an actor, yaar, an entertainer. Acting can't be written about or discussed, nor can it be analysed, it's got to be felt. That's what I do."

He further added, "Audiences understand what I tell them. People like a good story. I make films for the stories behind them. But I'm shy of seeing myself on screen. I'm not fond of my face or physique. Maybe I'm an actor, so I can play someone else."

Now, that's quite well said!
