Bollywood Badshah Shah Rukh Khan has been bestowed with many titles like ‘King of Romance’ citing his famous on-screen image as a romantic hero. He has risen to the peak of his career with the success of romantic films like ‘Kuch Kuch Hota Hai’, ‘Dil Toh Pagal Hai’ and ‘Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge’.
However he has also done pathbreaking performances in films like ‘Darr’ and ‘Don’ where he has successfully portrayed a negative character with panache. And recently Shah Rukh also claimed that on the contrary to his romantic image he is extremely shy in real life. He says that when it comes to women he is extremely introvert and doesn’t open up easily.
“I know the characters I have played of Raj and Rahul are a hit with the women, but I am not a romantic person at all. I am shy with women” declared SRK. He further claims that he always craved to play negative characters, “I've always wanted to play the 'bad guy' roles. I did play them in ‘Baazigar’ and ‘Darr’. I want to do it more and 'Don' has come along at the right time. I am not at all like 'Don' in real life but it's fun to play characters that are not at all like you. As an actor that thrills you.”
He says that any guy would love to play the character of ‘Don’ and he had ample of reasons to justify his statement. “Don is everything every guy wants to be but never gets to be. He has fast cars, faster women. In the second installment of 'Don' says Shah Rukh Khan he will be seen in a lean, mean and sexy avatar.
