Shah Rukh Khan, a mega star who has been ruling the film arena was a hero in motion launched on this day; 26 years ago with his super hit film Deewana. The film directed by Raj Kanwar starring the late Divya Bharti and Rishi Kapoor went down in history as one of the best performances the actor has offered. Deewana, which released on June 25, 1992, has been celebrated over social media in the recent years. SRK had also mentioned that he has still not seen his first movie in his Twitter post in 2014 stating, “All notions, creations & experiences of decades will end on the day of truth. I tirelessly work to ignore the inevitable. Thx for 22 yrs of O2. I have till date not seen Deewana. I have a notion that I don’t want to see my first or last creation. They r bookends, the story is between” (sic).
SRK then made a bold choice of doing negative roles during that time to prove his versatility that transformed him from a psychopath villain to the king of romance. Along with Deewana, movies such as Darr, Anjaam, and Baazigar were the spark that gave Bollywood an icon the world loves today. He then delivered some blockbusters hits. One such example is 'Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge'. The movie holds a record of running 1009 weeks un-interrupted at the Maratha Mandir cinema in Mumbai. After this, Shah Rukh Khan continued entertaining the audience with performance in movies like 'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai', 'Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham', 'Kal Ho Na Ho', 'Dil Toh Pagal Hai' earning the title of ‘King of Romance’ in Bollywood.
Not just in romantic movies, but Shah Rukh Khan has even nailed with his performance in movies like 'Swades' and 'Chak De India', 'Don' series, 'Fan' making him the 'Badshah of Bollywood'. His performance in these movies reflected that he hails from a background that is more theatre focussed.
The wait is over, here’s presenting the special Motion Poster to celebrate #26GoldenYearsOfSRK. As the reason to celebrate is BIG then the surprise should be BIG right.
