The Charisma of Shahrukh Khan - I
I love Shahrukh Khan so much and I fantasize him as my real life hero. To me he is like Spiderman. He came to work as an actor in Hindi movies with hope. People must have told him that he is very ordinary looking, and that he has no control on his vocal chords and that he can not act well. But despite all this, he didn’t let the hope fade away and worked hard to achieve success as one of the most popular Indians ever.
It never stops surprising me that how things change for a person when he becomes successful. The same voice of Shahrukh Khan became his plus point, the fudge colored, big nose, fat lips, boyish body and bad hair became his plus point and he was hailed as the sexiest man in Asia.
It is not easy being Shahrukh Khan you know. He has worked really hard. This charisma that surrounds him didn’t came to him naturally. He learnt it on the way. His sense of humour improved with the time. His clothings, residence, office, hairstyles and body has changed. He has learnt the secret to remain in the hearts of people, he knows the secret to be loved. He wont tell you his secret because he knows that you will never believe him.
People love him and it is not that people are always kind towards him. They sometimes say harsh things about him, and sometimes label his performance as trash too. But the fact remains that people like to talk about him. Being one of the most successful Hindi movie actor, he is still easily available to the press for interviews and PR campaigns for the projects he is associated with. These interviews are his chance to touch his fans as the Shahrukh Khan, a person that any one can idealize. He knows that well and when talking to the media he tries his best to be genuine and honest. Or at least he makes it look like that.
In the next few posts I will be talking about Shahrukh Khan and would be linking to the interviews, blog posts, articles and every thing that talks about Just how great Shahrukh Khan really is. Meanwhile, you can watch a video I found on YouTube. It is a scene from Shahrukh Khan’s first movie ‘In Which Annie Gives it Those Ones’ released in 1988, thats 19 years ago and Shahrukh Khan looks so young and ordinary. But if you truly love him like me then you would see just how out of this ordinary world he looked at that time.

What is it about SRK that is so appealing? For me I would say first off that is his very expressive face. You can just see every emotion flash across his face when he acts……it’s mostly because of his eyes and smile. He has the greatest smile with those dimples and the slight lopsidedness when he’s really grinning. He’s a wonderful dancer. He just moves very smoothly and naturally even in his older films.
