The Role Should Be Worthy Of The Status Indian Audience Gave Me: SRK

King Khan Shah Rukh is termed as the last of the superstars in Bollywood. He is the biggest name in India and many international crowds know India through his movies. That is how popular SRK is and he is the second richest actor in the world. He recently appeared at the Locarno Film Festival and he was given the Pardo Alla Carriera Ascona-Locarno Tourism award. He is the only Bollywood hero to deliver to 1000 crore films.

When he was asked about the idea of working in Hollywood, he responded, “I don't want to sound uppity, but it should be a role worthy of the status the Indian audience has given me. It should not let down. I come across as very flippant and happy-go-lucky, but I fully respect and realise the amount of adulation I have, how people adore me. People look up to what I do. People have given me too much respect.”

He added, “People have given me and my family everything that I have, people of India and all around the world, Indians and people from the subcontinent. I don't have an agent there (Hollywood). I've not also gone looking for it, to be honest. My dream is to get that one Indian film to be seen with the kind of audience that a big Hollywood film is seen, whether I'm part of it as an actor, as a light man, as a producer, as a writer, as a presenter.”

He concluded by saying, “I just want an Indian story to be accepted worldwide, and hopefully I can be a small part of it.” After taking a gap of 5 years, SRK arrived in 2023 and delivered blockbusters like Pathaan, Jawaan and Dunki. He is currently working on 'King' where he will share the screen space with his daughter Suhana Khan.
