Personal Quotes of Shahrukh Khan

(December 2001, about Hrithik Roshan): I wish I looked as good as he does. And I wish I danced as well as he does!

“Yes, I do have a close circle of friends and I am very fortunate to have them as friends. I feel very close to them I think friends are everything in life after your family. You come across lots of people all the time but you only make very few friends and you have to be true to them otherwise what’s the point in life?”

“I’d rather sink trying to be different, than stay afloat like everyone else”

“I cannot repay my fans for what they have done for me, they have given me so much love and that love has taken me to the number 1 position where I am today, the only thing I can do for my fans is to never stop working, and to do films till the very end, it is the only way I can express my love for them.”

“To me, Devdas is the end of love stories. I’ve portrayed an obsessed lover, a nice lover, an angry lover, a romantic lover. And now I’ve played Devdas. For someone who doesn’t even like love stories, I’ve played an awful lot of lovers. Personally speaking, I wouldn’t see any of the romantic films I’ve acted in.”

“I’m the luckiest man in the world and I don’t want to hide from the faces I’m acting for. So I don’t surround myself with guards, I’ve never given an interview in which I’ve said I feel bad that I can’t go shopping or I can’t go to Chowpatty and eat bhelpuri without being mobbed. I’m not the kind of guy who goes out wearing dark glasses (I don’t think I’m a big enough star to hide behind them, honest). I go to see movies in the cinema theatres, I go to restaurants with my family and friends even though I know people are going to disturb me there.”

“God has become a generic term like `mind blowing.’ It is embarrassing. I would have said that to Amitabh Bachchan, Naseeruddin Shah, Nana Patekar. I used to tell them I want to stand in the same space as you. I’ve told Kamal Haasan, I just want to touch you. They are the gods of acting. When people call me God, I say, no, I’m still an angel or saint of acting. I still have a long way to go.”

(August 2004): Awards that ignore me are losers.

(August 2004): I’m try-sexual. I try anything that’s sexual.

(August 2004): I have no competition. Every year the names I’m pitted against keep changing. You can’t cream the competition, you have to kill it.
