 "I'm the luckiest man in the world and I don't want to hide from the faces I'm acting for. So I don't surround myself with guards, I've never given an interview in which I've said I feel bad that I can't go shopping or I can't go to Chowpatty and eat bhelpuri without being mobbed. I'm not the kind of guy who goes out wearing dark glasses (I don't think I'm a big enough star to hide behind them, honest). I go to see movies in the cinema theatres, I go to restaurants with my family and friends even though I know people are going to disturb me there", - Shah Rukh Khan

79. So glad I found out about SRK
Written by Guest on Friday, 15 February 2008
I live in the USA and am not of Indian heritage. I just happened to have listed some Indian films on my Netflix queue to watch as our family does enjoy some foreign films. The first film I saw KHNH and I just was bowled over by SRK and the songs. I thought maybe many Indian films were the same so I got some by some of the other big current Bollywood stars but then I realised that it is only SRK who is so marvelous (although I enjoy some of the songs in some of the non-SRK films). I have spent all my free time the last 3 months acquiring by renting or buying all the SRK films I can get and have seen most now. My favorite is Veer Zaara. All of them have appeal to me though. What is it about SRK that is so damn 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. I've seen every major Hollywood musical ever made and I would rank SRK up there with Gene Kelly as one of the great all time screen dancers. He's has such great range as an actor too. He's a wonderful comedian. He's very scary in his evil roles such as Don or Darr. He's extremely seductive and sensual in his romantic roles. He's very believable as a nice boy next door type too. He has it all. I find him very attractive too...his eyes,smile,full lips, slender build (well now that has changed and gotten even better!) and although his nose looks big from a few angles most of the way they shoot him his nose looks very strong and distinctive and only adds to his appealing features. I think he's a greatest entertainer alive right now in any country! Now when I look at films by Hollywood actors I used to think were so appealing or so talented they pale to almost nothing next to Shahrukh. | 78. Chak Diya again

Written by Caribbean Girl on Saturday, 13 October 2007
The first movie of Shah Rukh's I ever saw was Dil To Pagal Hai. His performance was so good that I decided to watch every movie he made. I couldn't understand why I had been so drawn to an actor. This had never happened before. After much meditation I realised that it was because he was the look-a-like of my first love. This in no way takes away from your ability Mr. Khan. Thank you for keeping him in my life. P.S. He knew how I felt as I was only thirteen years old and unprepared for a boyfriend. | 76. venkatesh

Written by Mukund on Saturday, 11 August 2007
Hi, I am a very very big fan of SRK, as others even for me SRK is my role model. Even I started believing that IF YOU ARE NOT HUNGRY, JUST BE GREEDY!!!, as he says. Earlier I used to think on the negative side of my personality, but now when I see at SRK, I am knowing how he has converted all his negatives into positives,
1. He is not from film background
2. He doesn't have a built-up body (which I personally do not agree is necessary)
3. He is not that extremely handsome.
4. He will not be in any controversies.
5. He wont do great movies (I mean other than normal trend), but whatever he does, becomes GREAT !!!
So like that even I started beleiving that we should work hard to get the things work, and beleive me its working !!! Last year even though it was my first year in my company, I won a Numero Uno Award!!!, this year there are chances that I get promoted, where others are in the same level for 3-4 years...So keep doing hard work...Or just try to become SHAH RUKH KHAN!!!
And it will work.
Thanks a million Shahrukh Khan...oops sorry Shah Rukh Khan. | 72. Likeness

I like to watch your movies with Juhi Chawla. Why you have not acted with her in any romantic films. Both of you are charming and sweet and lovable. Yur acting with Kajol, Rani and Preity is only repetitive. No zing. | 68. shahrukh khan is perfectionist
Written by adeel khan on Thursday, 21 June 2007
WHO IS PERFECTIONIST AMIR OR SRK???
To answer it first of all we should know the meaning of PERFECTION " perfection means totally complete or having all the required characteristics in a whole.
" ACTOR (film actor) what is an actor : a person who expresses the feelings or works out a given task (may be script)
through his actions (which includes body langauge, facial expressions, voice (controle) and mannerism.
Acting, hovever is different from the actions we do in the commen life. we can never be actors or good actors if we act in a movie the same way we do in the daily life. In the personal life you are not going to give an idae of what you are doing but in a movie you are to convey a feeling, for example in general life you may look happy or not saddest for a moment if even there would happen a saddest incidence, but acting this sadness in a movie, you need to be overwhelmed by sadness, all the body and its actions and your sound need to be sad and affected by the sadness, if you looked relaxed even for a shorter moment your acting perishes away. similarly expressing happiness you need to be fully exited and energatic if you are a bit lose you are lose at acting, (in commen life this is not necessary you may get lose here.)
Now perfect actor is no doubt he who knows all the ups and downs of acting he is mastered over all the skills of acting and these descibed actions. he knows which part of his body and how to move to express a certain feeling when to lough and how, when to weap and how , because laughs and weapings are different and situational
a lough when win a race is different than the lough you get your love the cry your mother dies is different than the cry you are not happy with the situations
a perfect actor is not he who gives works on a perfect script but the one who give perfect work on any script (for a perefiotnist the more the work the moer the perfect he is)
AMIR KHAN:
AMIR has worked in so many big movies like LAGAAN, RDB, MANGAL PANDEY all these are considered to be very much unconventional bollywood movies. His BLOCKBUSTER RAJA HINDUSTANI. and his starter QSQT .He is very selective and choosy ofcourse all great actor chose . he has worked even as a co-star or side hero in films i.e ANDAZ APNA APNA , most of which, though do not have weaker roles for him but Amir performed really well almost in all of them. Amir has bravely turned down roles weaker and unsuitable for him, like SRK's role in DARR AMIR had time as he does not make many films like other actors but rejected them only because they did not suit him or were not powerful roles.(SRK though rocked this weaker role in DARR) The basic and unique speciality about Amir is that he beshapes the roles, means he changes his look for suiting the role like he did in Mangal pandey . He made it look as if he is real MANGAL PANDAY. Amir believes in quality rather than in quantity gives only one movie a year and his movies are of fairly high budget which should rock the theater, he is therefore almost always giving hits. he is at the top in the list of SUCCESS ratio with 56.66 % HIT ratio of 28.13% . AMIR has done 32 movies in his carear of 19 years.
MIAN KEY POINTS OF AMIR KHAN:
1. Carefull selection of movies, always prefers a purposefull movie.
2. He makes a lot rsemblence to the role he is acting, by acquiring that required look .
3 Never does many movies a disbeliever in quantity.
SHAHRUKH KHAN:
Shahrukh known is the KING KHAN has also some greatest movies to his name like DEVDAS , SWADES, VEER ZARA and his carear best ALL TIME BLOCKBUSTER DDLJ. DDLJ earn him and Kjol the names ROMEO and JULEUT of Bollywood. He is also called PROFFESSOR of LOVE because in most of his top class movies he appeard as a lover . SWADES an unconventional . He has also rocked ,as villian in ANJAAM and BAZIGAR as comedian in BADSHAH and as a reformer in SWADES, so he is a transcendental lover but the best in all other regards too. He has also been selective but has accepted some weaker roles too in movies like DEEWANA, DARR , (KARAN ARJUN), HAY RAM as a side hero or supporting hero, hoever in all these minor rules he has surpassed even the lead role through his power of acting. He does not believe in little work good work he may believe in work, work and best work , so he, if has turned down movies, is only because of business in other projects. He usually gives 2 or more movies per year and has more 2 hits per year than any other actor. His SUCCESS ratio is 55.56% and HIT ratio 47.50% . He is renowned for his realistic work and is fully capable of making things look so real . MANISAH KOIRELA says " In "DIL SE" when shahrukh was madly after me in love , for a moment I would believe he really loves me." He has worked in some low budgets movies but have reached them to the top like CHAHAT, KHKN. About him is said "SRK can turn anything into gold" SRK has 47 movies in his 15 years carear .
MIAN KEY POINTS OF SHAHRUKH KHAN:
1. A great SEA or an OCION of expresions and feelings.
2. Enormously reputed for realistic acting , it seems as if he is doing them as a REAL .
3. Untiring continuis to work round the clock.
VERDICT / CONCLUSION:
In light of the above informations we can easily decide that both amir and shahrukh are very good actors but as for as the perfctionism is concerned you can clearly judge who is he ? If we rely on acting only, irrespective of story, music, picurization etc. we can have the following points to decide.
1). The one who looks to chose a suitable and powerful roles OR the one who rocked in the rejected roles
2). The one with a message or patriotism in his movie OR the one with solid actions and acting
3). The one who is concentrated on beshaping OR the one who absorbs into the role
4). The one who has worked in high budget (safer) movies only OR t he one who has rocked in lows too.
5). The one who has given MIRACLES on the bases of the stroy OR the one who has it (MIRACLES) only & solely due to his acting
6). The one who has come to the industry as a CLAN OR the one who has come only through his abilities (CLAN = From film rooted family )
So I say both AMIR and SRK are great actors both are PERFECTIONIST in there own way but if one of them than ofcourse it comes out to be SHAHRUKH KHAN , As I think acting is what can make you perfect and careful selection of movie and litlle work and also beshaping the roles, do not and can not make you perfectionist. Beshaping the role through your acting is perfectionism. Shahrukh khan's key points justly prove him perfectionist . | 67. U are the Best!!!! Love you!!

Shahrukh is no doubt the best.
Amitabh Bachchan should retire and should stop spoon feeding his good for nothing son, who had been born with a silver spoon in his mouth and things he is a king. Things are coming to him veru easily that why he doesnot care...

We don't know why the heart favors one to the next only God knows. I am truly happy that he entered this world and I am glad he is a star so that I got to know of his existence.No one is perfect and I appreciate him for who he is and not who i want him to be. He possesses wonderful traits. His devotion to his wife and kids touches my soul.I envy his how fast his brain works,energy,determination and zealous attitude for anything he does.Great sense of humour.To me...he has made the best of his looks, and for his height he maintains a perfect figure.Shahrukh is responsible for many happy days in my life...I enjoy his work and someday I am going to meet him, not as a fan but as someone who likes him as he is. | 60.

Dear Mr Khan,
You are a wonderful actor and a brilliant entertainer a Jewel in the Taj of Bollywood. But please please do not get enticed into making copies of old classics especially if they are of my favourite hero Dilip Kumar. There can only be one Devdas one Salim and one Moti for Tarana.
