SRK Revealed Why He Did ‘Baazigar’ And ‘Darr’ And His Reason Will Leave Your Jaws Dropped!

Shah Rukh Khan needs no introduction. From being top at his craft to wooing the populace with his larger-than-life persona, SRK is a star, they don’t make that often. Also known as the ‘Badshah of Bollywood’, there is no soul on earth, I bet, who can challenge his reigns. This aura of infectious charm and confidence, however, took a number of hits and awards to surface.

But let’s admit it, although we rooted for him, playing a hero, saving the heroine, there was something magical when he played the shady villain. While we called it gutsy, SRK had something else to say.

In a recent interview with NDTV, Shah Rukh opened up and revealed a secret about his 25-year-old decisions of signing films like ‘Baazigar’ and ‘Darr’ early in his career.

“The reasons I agreed to do roles which the other guys were saying no to (for whatever their mindset was), was because I thought I’m not good-looking enough to be a hero, so let me just get a villain’s job.”

“I didn’t do it because I was gutsy or because I knew I could pull it off, I’m such a great actor.”

Apparently, SRK also had a director (who he refused to name) who told him that he was ‘ordinary and ugly looking and I can use you for anything.’

Who would have thought? I don’t know about you but I need some time to digest this!
