Why Shah Rukh Khan is India's Biggest Superstar Ever ?


Because he is the only Indian who can stop traffic in Berlin.

Because with a forthcoming television show (Kya Aap Paanchvi Paas Se Tez Hai), an IPL cricket team (Kolkata Knight Riders), a thriving production house(Red Chillies) , and two of last year’s biggest hits—Chak De! India and Om Shanti Om—under his belt, he is everywhere at once.

Because when he sprouted a six pack, Indian men hit the treadmill with a vengeance.

Because the day when his film hits the theatres is no less than a festival in India.

Because the word KING is synonymous with his name- King Khan.

Because very few people doubted him when he said,' I will destroy Saawariya.'

Because his friends cut across several alpha people groups, whether it is Reliance Industries Chairman Mukesh Ambani or Congress General Secretary Rahul Gandhi.

Because every Indian is privy to everything about him, including how much time he spends in the bathroom.

Because in one song of Om Shanti Om, he hosted almost the entire industry including his famed rivals, the Bachchans.

Because his work ethic is matched only by his endless energy.

Because he is not content with just being a movie star.

Because anything that is associated with SRK sells like hot cakes.

Because he is the highest paid actor of India.

Because only he had the guts to stand by Shoaib Akhtar when everybody else deserted him.

Some rare known trivia about him:-

Is Obsessive About: Installing a biometric security system in his already fortress-like home.
Biggest Discovery: “That glass is a liquid, because a window pane is thicker at the bottom and thinner at the top.”
Word He Says Most: Inshaallah.
Currently Reading: The fine print in the IPL prospectus. When he tires of reading it in bed, he switches to re-reading Ayn Rand’s The Fountainhead.
Loves To Hang Out With: His 10-year-old son Aryan and his friends, in his den at Mannat.
