The world called him King Khan. Everyone saluted this Badshah Khan.. ..who is affectionatelyaddressed as SRK. Favorites of crores of fans.Shahrukh Khan. Shahrukh Khan was bornon 2nd November, 1965.. ..in New Delhi. Shahrukh Khan spent5 years of his childhood.. ..at his grandpa's in Mangalore. Here his grandpa IftikarAhmed used to work.. ..as a chief engineer. Later Shahrukh grewup in Gautam Nagar, Delhi. He got admitted in Delhi'sfamous school St. Columbus. And continued to study there. Shahrukh was okay in studiesbut he was great in sports. He studied at Hansraj College of.. ..Delhi Universityfor the batch of 1985-88. Here he earned his bachelor'sdegree in economics. He would spend mostof his time there in.. ..the Delhi TheaterAction Group or TAG. At that time Barry Johnwas his theater director. He played a lot ofhockey in Hansraj college. And after graduation he went to.. ..Jamia Miilia Islamia University.. ..where he was doing hiscourse in mass communication. But he left the coursein the middle and started acting. Yes, I have been. Interestingly in his childhoodShahrukh would often.. ..go to the rehearsals happeningat the National School of Drama. Since his father was a vendor for NSD. Shahrukh had a strange childhood. His father passed awayin 1981 because of cancer. And in 1991 even his mother died. And then his sister Shahnaz Lalarukh.. ..went under heavy depression. Shahrukh was sorry that hisparents didn't see his success. Good things will happen. You pray. And even I will pray thateverything is good for this year. Shahrukh Khan played his firstrole in TV serial 'Dil Dariya'. Late Mr. Tondon had made this serial. After that colonel Kapoor'sserial 'Fauzi' came.. ..where he played Abhimanyu Ray. In TV itself everyone surmisedthat this boy is unique. The beginning is very nice. And after that ShahrukhKhan did several TV serials. Like 'Wagle Ki Duniya' and 'Circus'. And nobody has forgotten'Dusra Kewal' yet. We will work harder and go ahead. After that he receiveda call from Hema Malini.. ..who was making film'Dil Aashna Hai' at that time. Her heroine was DivyaBharati in this film. Shahrukh didn't believe it at first. And then he enjoyedworking in the film. 'Dil Aashna Hai','Deewana', 'Raju Ban Gaya gentleman.' All 3 films had proventhat he is a good romantic star. I think it is been a great time. I came during a time when romance,love, niceness.. ..and goodness wasprevalent in the 90s. And after that came 'Baazigar' where.. ..Shahrukh played avillain instead of a hero. He lost his role of a heroand won the role of a villain. And became the biggest 'Baazigar'. This film with Kaajol andShilpa Shetty was a success. His film 'Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa' was also released. And then Yash Chopra's'Darr' was released. No one can forget the dialogue,I love you, Kiran. When I started 20years ago it was enough.. ..to have food, a home,a car, take care of my children.. ..and to support their education. Shahrukh Khan isnot from a film family. And Shahrukh proved thattalent is not dependent on family. I would suggest to everyone before going in and dreaming.. ..believe in reality. Get those things done first. Whatever it takes. Education being the most important. Post that,go ahead and fulfill your dreams. Shahrukh Khan also didsome peculiar films like.. ..'Maya Memsaab' and 'Hey Raam'. In 'DDLJ' and 'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai'.. ..Shahrukh had reachedan impossible height.. ..which nobody can reach now. I think I entered the filmindustry at a very good time. And it's been 20-22 years now.. ..which is one fifth of theyears the film industry has existed. I feel very happy, proudand thrilled to be part of films.. ..at a point in time wherea lot of change is happening. In his personal life we find that.. ..he got married to Gauri Chibber. She is a Punjabi Hindu. Everything is very good.I like it with her. They got marriedon 25th October, 1991. They had a long affair of 6 years. And after their marriagethey had a son Aryan in 1997. Daughter Suhana in 2000. And in 2013 he hadanother son called Abram. My first concern isto keep my children healthy. And that they are successfulin whatever they choose. Shahrukh was one suchactor of the film industry.. ..who became famousand also invested money.. ..in several businessesforemost being.. ..the Kolkata KnightRiders of the IPL. Yes it's been a great journey. And with the grace of God.. ..till as long as peoplewant to watch me, I'll keep working. Shahrukh Khan is notcalled the king of romance.. ..King Khan and BadshahKhan without a reason. Every film by ShahrukhKhan makes a deep impression. My dream is to do something strange.. ..and new in my fieldin which I am an expert. SRK has made new rules of success. And now Shahrukh hasreached such a height.. ..that it is impossibleto compete with him. To know more aboutfamous personalities.. ..subscribe to People and History.
