Bollywood super star Shah Rukh Khan completed 31 years in the industry last week. He held an Ask SRK session on Twitter to celebrate the occasion, and as expected, his fans came up with quirky and a few warm questions for their favourite actor. Shah made his acting debut with ‘Deewana’ opposite late actor Divya Bharti in 1992.
Beginning the session, Shah wrote, “Wow just realised it’s 31 yrs to the day when Deewana hit the screens. It’s been quite a ride mostly a good one. Thanks all and we can do 31minutes of #AskSRK ??” A person asked him, “One thing which you will never forget from Deewana's Set?” Shah Rukh replied, “Working with Divyaji and Rajji.” Someone asked him, “Sir how do you feel when you watch this epic entry of yourself. It's been 31 years and it still gives us chills.” He replied, “Should have worn a helmet.”
When asked ‘which is the proudest achievement you had in these 31 years?’ Shah Rukh replied, “Being able to entertain lots of people lots of times. That’s it.” A person asked, “You have been always an inspiration sir, any motivational lines from you for the rest of the year sir.” The actor said, “Focus hard on work….love family even harder!”
A person even asked the actor, “Sath me cigarette pine chaloge kya (let's go smoke a cigarette together) @iamsrk sir ???” He replied, “Main apni buri aadatein akele hi karta hoon (I indulge in my bad habits by myself)!”
Once again, someone asked him to do a film like ‘Swades.’ “After so many successful years in Bollywood and after doing almost every sort of role, now, while picking a movie, do you look at it's commercial aspect or you would also like to do some roles/movies which you may have not done before, or may b more Like Swadesh,” read a tweet. Shah Rukh said, “I now try and do the kind of film the particular director wants to do….not only what I see myself as.”
The actor made his much-awaited comeback after a four-year hiatus, with Siddharth Anand’s blockbuster action-thriller ‘Pathaan.’ He will be seen next in the upcoming action-thriller ‘Jawan,’ which is set to hit the theatres on September 7. Helmed by South filmmaker Atlee, the film also stars Nayanthara and Vijay Sethupathi in lead roles.
He also has director Rajkumar Hirani's next ‘Dunki’ opposite actor Taapsee Pannu. The official release date of the movie is still awaited.
