Shah Rukh Khan is a self-made man, and he does inspire with what he does. It is foolish to think that one can try and imitate or modify what he does. I have been original in my performances so far.
Shah Rukh Khan's stardom always inspires me. His sensibilities, way of life and the way he does business, I love him for that.
I don't think there has been a huge shift. Most of the films still focus on Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, Aamir Khan, Akshay Kumar, etc. The percentage of films that have someone like a Kangana Ranaut shining in it is really low.
In India, multiplex ticket prices are high; therefore people are a bit hesitant. The ticket price for a newcomer's film is the same as a Shah Rukh Khan or a Salman Khan film. Why would people pay, say Rs 400, for a newcomer's film when they can watch a Shah Rukh Khan film at the same price?
All said, even an Aishwarya Rai and Shah Rukh Khan could not reproduce the magic of the original 'Devdas.'
The stars that I've worked with started their careers almost at the same time as me. Whether it is Shah Rukh Khan or Aamir Khan or Salman Khan.
I would love to work with Shah Rukh Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Aamir Khan, Salman Khan, Abishek Bachchan and a lot more... even Imran Khan, Hrithik Roshan and Ranbir Kapoor are damn good with their acting.
I always say that I am so fortunate to be with Shah Rukh Khan, the man.
If I was offered a Salman Khan or a Shah Rukh Khan film, I would have signed it. No one says no to that.
I think all girls are Shah Rukh Khan fans.
I'm not an actor like Shah Rukh Khan, Amitji or Salman Khan. My magic lies in my music.
I would love to do a film with Shah Rukh Khan or Salman Khan where I also have a great role.
I am more popular than many politicians, and even superstars like Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan.
I think there is no difference between the language of Shah Rukh Khan and Hafiz Saeed.
My role model has been Shah Rukh Khan. There is something or the other for one to learn from his career.
Bollywood looks only at the box office numbers. If the film earns money, it is usually because of the hero and the director. It is about Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan.
I'm a very big Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan fan. I've grown up seeing them, and they're larger-than-life in the true sense for me.
