Shah Rukh Khan is in the spotlight due to his upcoming movie King.
Shah Rukh Khan needs no introduction. He is known for his immense popularity worldwide. It was often said that SRK selects actresses for his films. In a throwback interview, the actor busted this rumour. When asked if he chooses his own heroine, Shah Rukh said, “I have never selected a heroine for any film since I entered Bollywood.” He shared his early experiences and said, “When I was new in the industry, top actresses like Divya Bharti and Manisha Koirala never hesitated to work with me. It was then that I decided that I would not say no to working with any artist.” Shah Rukh further emphasised that he never interferes with the director’s decisions, nor does he suggest taking or not taking anyone on board. He said, “I never asked the director to take or not to take anyone. I have always left the final decision to the director when asked for suggestions and still do.”
Currently, Shah Rukh Khan is in the spotlight due to his upcoming movie King, which also marks the theatrical debut of his daughter Suhana Khan. In an interview with Variety, he said that Sujoy Ghosh’s King is going to be a massy, emotional film.
While talking about his next project, SRK said in an interview, “It’s a film called King, which is directed by Sujoy Ghosh Kahaani and creatively produced by Siddharth Anand, who made Pathaan. It is an action drama, it’s a Hindi film. It’ll be interesting. I’ve been wanting to do a film like that for some time, and I really wanted to do a film like this for seven, eight years. We just felt Sujoy would be the right choice, because we wanted it to be very emotionally correct. We are all coming together to make a cool, massy, action, emotional film.”
The Baadshah of Bollywood began his career with appearances in several television series in the late 1980s. Later in 1992, he made his Bollywood debut with the musical romance Deewana. He is known for giving several hits at the box office, like Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995), Dil To Pagal Hai (1997), Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (1998), Mohabbatein (2000), Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham… (2001), Kal Ho Naa Ho (2003), Veer-Zaara (2004), and Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna (2006).
