In a viral video shared by Shah Rukh Khan Universe Fan Club on X (formerly Twitter), King Khan can be seen addressing a large gathering of fans. He mentioned, “It’s new because I have been working for 33 years and took such a big gap. Normally, you get a little nervous and you feel, ‘I hope I’ve got the film right.’ Before that, there were some of my films that didn’t do well, and so I thought I’m not making good films. But I think more than my films, there was love for Pathaan, Jawan, and Dunki from the people.”
He continued, “I think this whole country and people outside this country, from India, have actually taken me to their heart more than the films and said that, ‘Don’t take a break for 4 years, 2-4 months are fine.’ So, I’m very thankful to all of you, to the audience, and the whole world for making me realize that what I do is right and I should keep on doing it.”
Did you know Shah Rukh Khan once credited Salman Khan for his stardom?
After a four-year break, Shah Rukh Khan made a triumphant return to the big screen in January 2023 with Siddarth Anand’s ‘Pathaan.’ Co-starring Deepika Padukone and John Abraham, the film not only broke several records but also became one of the highest-grossing films of the year. Following the success of ‘Pathaan,’ Shah Rukh Khan delivered another hit with Atlee Kumar’s ‘Jawan,’ where he once again took on an action-packed role, battling against societal evils. The film achieved a global box office collection of over Rs 1,000 crore.
The success streak continued for the actor as he wrapped up the year with another hit, Rajkumar Hirani’s ‘Dunki.’ The film centered around the issue of illegal immigration through the Dunki route. Although the actor has not revealed his upcoming projects, it is anticipated that he will commence work on new ventures by mid-2024.
