In an interview with ‘The Hindu’, Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan has spoken about turning 50 later this year, how social media is a leveller, working with Kajol, his films and a lot more. You can read the full interview here.
Here are some excerpts:
- On the chemistry that he shares with Kajol: “People talk about our romance and chemistry. But between us, we’ve covered different genres, from Baazigar through Karan Arjun, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai and K3G, and My Name is Khan. Each time, we push ourselves to do better and have reached a stage where we can criticise each other when we feel we aren’t up to the mark”
- On producing expensive films under his banner, Red Chillies Entertainment: “A film has to be technically good to draw people to the cinemas. My friends Adi (Aditya Chopra) and Karan (Johar) ask me why I spend so much making a film. I do it because people spend a lot to watch a film. If a project is for a niche audience, it should mentally stimulate the viewer”
- On the impact of social media: “It is a leveller. On twitter, I get appreciation and abuse directly from people. When I entered the industry, movie stars had to be mysterious, enigmatic. I feel the accessibility we see today will make way for regular guys who think of cinema as a regular job”
- Turning 50 early next month: “I will be turning 50 soon. People tell me that 40, 50 and 75 are landmark years. I don’t think so. It’s just another year.”

SRK is easily the most wittiest actor in India. His replies to some of the most awkward questions are fantastically prompt.
All the 3 superstars turn 50 in the same year! Mother of coincidences.
The Biggest Movie star, the biggest b’wood star as well as the most famous Bollywood star ever .
By the way SRK fans, rejoice! Shah Rukh Khan to do 3 films every year !
well , that’s what Shah Rukh Khan’s birthday resolution will be this year !
For over two decades, the magic of SRK’s acting, persona and charm has regaled Bollywood buffs, and the saga continues. Shah Rukh Khan, who turns 50 on November 2, the mega star says he has pledged to do three films in a year on an average as soon as he completes the first half century of his life.
“I want to do as many films as possible before I die, I want to do different roles. So, I decided that from the age of 50-55, I want to do 15 very nice films and that will include popular films, offbeat films, mad films and many more. I will do many different films. I want to do three films a year. Ek film mein mann ke liye karna chahta hu, ek tann ke liye aur ek dhan ke liye (I want to do one film for the mind, one for my physical capability and one for box office/entertainment ),”
The Only Khan who has not used botox (like Salman who uses every year to hide wrinkles ) who has not done plastic surgery (like Salman who does it every year since he is a takla/Ganja .
Actor means acting : so when we talk about acting then there are 3 khans only SRK, Irrfan Khan, Aamir Khan too adding (yeah as he is million times better than Salman when we talk about acting.. 4th should be Saif and then so on. ( the last should be Salman, even he doesn’t deserve even the last spot since he is extremely bad, worst, crappiest actor of B’wood we have ever witnessed ) .
Respect to Shah Rukh Khan . The World is proud of you and we will always be. you’re great Legend & the greatest mega star we have ever seen . thanks for globalizing Hindi Cinema forever .

@Criminal Khan : through your logic criminal Khan looks 100 year old Daddu Ji since he is a takla/ganja khan & is plastic/surgery production .
@sultan BHUSHAN : Ab ghata/kela award winning, non-actor/films wale fans highest award winning film-fare wale actor ko batayenge ke movies kaise banate hai ? ROFL .
First even get proper information about Baahubali budget then open your bhojpuri mouth .
@Asit : ur this wish will not come true, thou should expect such thing from non-actor like as he’s the only non-/bhojpuri actor who’ll start playing father/side roles since he’s talentless, classless.
@Ranveer : using fake names will not help you criminaltard neither word like ‘clash’ suits the king of loser bhojpuri/criminal bhaijaan fans . so you better worry about Sultana whose lungi will be blown once again for the 4th time bec of SRK on next Eid .
@Sxzone : now criminal fans are using fake ids like this by supporting people like Deepika ( who was did debut with SRK & rejected countless films of Criminal Khan as he he is classless & but Zarine was debuted by criminal and now she is doing porn films ) in clash just bec their criminal is too chuha to win clash from anyone. he has been beaten by Ranbeer even so it obvious they will support other against SRK .
@1:40 pm the real Billi : Only Bhojpuri fans can have such type of sense of humour, where they troll themselves instead of trolling to troll others, ROFL .
That’s not true but he surely looks younger than 50 years old Ganja/Takla/Criminal Bhaijaan .
@Azhar : 1:53 pm : Fauji, Deewana etc YRF/DP ki thi? & Akshay has also done films with YRF too why it got flops ? logicless moron. there is one one self-made star who has been remembered as an inspiration that’s SRK . get a life idiot .
@Ajay Rocks 2:25 : you should hard to believe that your takla is going to turn 50 soon but he’s still busy with Sheru being unmarried. all other khans have families, have children whereas criminal khan was and is still busy with his Sheru, he might have child soon but through sheru .
@NVS 3:34 pm : If SRK looks 60 acc to Taklatard’s logic criminal / Takla bhaijaan must be looking 90 years old Daddu ji through the same logic .
Exclusive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Its Rejoice Time for SRKians……
For over two decades, the magic of his acting, persona and charm has regaled Bollywood buffs, and the saga continues. Shah Rukh Khan, who turns 50 on November 2, said that last year he was a little lazy by just doing one film. But now, the superstar says he has pledged to do three films in a year on an average as soon as he completes the first half century of his life.
“I want to do as many films as possible before I die,” the 49-year-old said on a light note to a few invited media representatives on the sets of “Dilwale” at Ramoji Film City here.
“It has been four to five years that I have become producer… we made ‘Chennai Express’, ‘Happy New Year’, ‘Om Shanti Om’ and they took a lot of time. I started feeling that in the last one year, I am not doing much films that I can actually do. I am just doing one film in a year, and I’m feeling lazy.”
“I want to do different roles. So, I decided that from the age of 50-55, I want to do 15 very nice films and that will include popular films, offbeat films, mad films and many more. I will do many different films. I want to do three films a year. Ek film mein mann ke liye karna chahta hu, ek tann ke liye aur ek dhan ke liye (I want to do one film for the mind, one for my physical capability and one for money),” he added.
Directed by Rohit Shetty, “Dilwale”, produced by Red Chillies Entertainment, will see the magical pair of Shah Rukh and Kajol coming together again on the silver screen, and recreating their onscreen chemistry.
A dekko of that was given to the scribes invited to the set, which seemed like it’s being used as SRK’s home in the movie. The walls had photographs of the ‘Badshah’ of Bollywood, with Varun Dhawan, who plays a key character in the film.
Shah Rukh, along with other cast members of the film, offered a sneak peak into the film with a 20-minute video footage.
It created a long-lasting impact with scenes that included a song sequence shot with SRK and Kajol in Iceland; an action sequence of SRK; few comic scenes involving Johnny Lever, Sanjay Mishra and Varun Sharma, and of course, scenes and songs featuring Varun and Kriti Sanon.
@xzone & other SRK fans : This @Ajay Rocks is not ajay devgn’s fan, he is a hit&Run non-actor’s fan, yes pretending to be a Ajay’s fan which i am 100% sure, that’s why i have never seen him on ajay’s posts but always active on Criminal’s fan. so from now kindly consider him as criminal/Bhojpuri fan.
@Indicine : you’ve published all those negative comments about SRK at beginning but my comment is still on awaiting moderation, kindly publish all these recent comments of mine, waiting . thanks!
@james 7:53 pm : Our favorite talented old actors are : Amitabh bachchan, Dilip Kumar etc .
Our favorite talented younger actors are : Shah Rukh Khan, Hrithik Roshan, Irrfan Khan etc .
Our Fav Bhojpuri+talentless+oldest+murderer+2 decades struggler+Botox production is : Salman
Ops mistake, it’s too shameful to be a fan of a such crappiest, award less bhojpuri, non-actor .
@iamAKN, @Ajay Rocks is Salman fan. I have many times seen him on Salman’s articles. Also this @NVS is not actually anyone’s fan but he is just a srk hater.
@ iamAKN I also think Ajay has no fan following @ Ajay rocks is also lallu fan .
@Phenom : Why are you behind @Ajay Rocks ? Dont judge anyone before knowing the truth !!!!! He was commenting mostly on Ajay Devgan articles without abusing any actor. I know him on twitter as well and he is from Middle East. But your lunatics friends like @sss & @I am AKN keep calling Ajay with absurd names. Do you expect respect for your idol after abusing his idol ? Why cant SRK fans understand this ? By doing this you are only creating hatred for you and your idol !!!!
@I am AKN : If you dont know the truth then dont cook Khayali palav. He is a Ajay Devgan fan but likes Salman too !!!!!!!!!!! You are just insecure about Salman and his fans. Accoording to y our blind hatred everyone who writes bad about SRK is a Salman’s fan !!!!! But reality is every SRK fan is abuses every actor and their fans. It will only give you retaliation so be prepared to receive what you give to others !!!!!!!!!!!!
Even SRK fans knows SRK looks more older than Aamir and Salman but they do not want to accept the reality, simply they do not have the courage for it. Instead they abuse Salman and Aamir to use steroids and botox. VFX was used for Salman’s abs during ETT because he was unable to work due to his trigeminal neuralgia disease which is a nerve disease !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@hrithik : Wow. he is such a big Ajay’s fan that he is mostly active on Salman’s post only but can’t be found on Ajay’s related post by searching. U r such a big idiot, I & most of other SRK fans have started bashing Ajay only after seeing his negative comments against SRK on every damn post .
same like every Salman fans know Salman is the oldest but will never accept? SRK looks youngest among all khans, he is the fittest, youngest, can be fit with any actress at this age unlike salman .
SRK fans call Salman as botox produ bec he uses it always unlike SRK, same like they use the word fake abs bec he has used fake abs to fool the public. if it hurts that’s ur bhai’s mistake, not ours .
@I am AKN : You started your garbage again. What if I show a proof that he comments on AJay’s articles ?? Dont be a fanatic in hatred. You dont like some one thats fine but you imagine things and expect everyone to believe in it. Thats ridiculous !!!!!!!!!!!
@I am AKN : Keep burning in hatred and jealous. No matter what you bark nobody gives a damn to it. Keep barking about fake abs and botox but world knows the reality !!!!!!!!!!!! A fragile chain smoker is fit compare to a man who is in body building for 25 years !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a retard logic from a SRK fan !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@hrithik 4:31 pm : if you say garbage doesn’t mean other say it too. The garbage was started by Ajay rock & then later followed by you..
I don’t need, he must have commented once in awhile when neutral does the he must have done too, but neither a bhojpuri like you nor anyone else can ignore that he has been active on salman & SRK’s post more than anyone else understand. Toh Chahe kitna bhi uchal uchal ke bohonko kyu na still the fact and truth will remain always that most of SRKians including me has started bashing AD bec of Ajay Rock & will always bash AD as well as salman if he doesn’t stop, get a life.
Hrithik 4:33 pm : as everyone gives a damn to you and your comment ? Lol.. yes exactly world know the reality of Botox production Khan’s fake abs since media has exposed him badly..
”who is in body building for 25 years ?” haha , Ghanta, that’s why he always needs fake abs to fool everyone including his fans? lol, ya Smoker can undoubtedly be fittest than a Drunkard / Takla .
IamAkn pls stop this rubbish. I stopped commenting here because of many foolish people and vowed never to comment here again!! I just read comments especially that of Ajay Devgan. You have no right to say that okay. I know @ Ajay rocks for 3years now. He is a true Ajay fan. @ajay rocks is a big time Ajay Devgn fan. Salman is his 2nd favourite. He is half indian just like me..He is based in England. Ask @sss and even you know me if you have not forgotten. I remember very well because we were 3 half indians back then always active on Ajays article for a long time. @Sani.d half indian half nigerian, @ajay rocks half indian half Middle east and I half Canadian. Pls stop sppreading negativity towards @ajay. His tweeter account is still active. @hritik quite a while ,thanks for the support you take care.
@I am AKN : You are kid and your mind is not matured enough to know the realities. You live in a Paglapur where only SRK is capable of doing anything if any other actor does it is fake and with support of others !!!!!!!!! Grow up you idiot !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@Shri : Thanks !!! Do comment regularly let the loons chant !!!!!!!!
@Shri : So what if he is a Koyla’s fan? even If he would be a true ajay fan he would not spread negativity towards Ajay and forced SRKians to bash ajay. i don’t even need to say anything against ajay as i don’t hate him but people like ajay rocks is not going to leave us to bash ajay devgn . if you’re really interested in giving advices then advice ajay rocks first to stop bashing SRK ..
@hrithik : bus ho gaya tera? wherever i live it is way better than living in a place like ” Salman face club ” . ab nikal paaka mat zyada.
@iamAKN lol you hate this guy so much. Why lying or changing colours.
