Shah Rukh Khan
started in theater and television, took on film roles that more
established actors were unwilling to touch, and ascended rapidly to
become the number one box-office draw in Bollywood for the last fifteen
years. Nonetheless, the life of Shah Rukh is more than just a
stupendous show-biz success story. In an industry marked by
nepotism-some families have fourth-generation members working in
Bollywood-Shah Rukh is an outsider. In 2000, he turned from solely
being an actor to producing, and made risky films that the mainstream
industry refused to support financially. His success in this area of
the industry made him susceptible to threats by the Mumbai mafia. Shah
Rukh has had to constantly negotiate the complexities of being a Muslim
superstar in a predominantly Hindu country. He's broken Bollywood rules
and still endured.
With the KING OF BOLLYWOOD Shah Rukh has decided to break
his silence, sharing his journey with journalist and film critic,
Anupama Chopra , and through it, offers his legacy of the story of how
a nation and a film industry incarnated themselves in new avatars. In April 2007, Shah Rukh was immortalized in wax at Madame Taussaud's Museum in London. His 2002 movie, Devdas,
became the first Hindi film to be premiered at the Cannes Film
Festival, and also won a BAFTA nomination for best foreign film. His
stylized acting and urbane appeal works from New Delhi to New York-
according to a 2003 Nielsen EDI survey, seven of the top 10 Hindi films
in the U.K. from 1989 onward star Shah Rukh Khan.

Yes! Those were the golden days of school....
....when
getting up at six in the morning was a normal way to start the day, and
now ufff.....it is an agenda of the week (every Monday morning  )
...when milk was dreaded in and was poured in my little sis’ glass if she was out of sight
...when
I hated wearing uniform everyday as I am a person who gets bored of
things quickly and now choosing clothes every morning seems to be a big
pain!
...when birthday meant distributing toffees that never went above 1 Rs per head. But Rs 100 per head today is not enough
...when exams also meant a fixed hour of kho-kho in the evening
...when holiday meant late night movie the day before and pakoras in the breakfast
...when
I never ironed my uniform and only mom’s bashings would make me do
that. And to top this, my little sis would still not do it for herself
and inturn complain to mom for me not doing it for her
...when
I and sis never prepared my bag at night, and mom doing it for us early
morning. And this was generally coupled with her song of cursing me for
putting all the crap in my bag. Small little chits of ‘Raja-wajir-chor-sipahi’ and ‘solah parchi’ and God knows wat all crap from remains of the sharpened pencil to wrappers of toffees… yukk !!
...when
foul language made me get staring faces, each one giving “oh my gawdâ€
look and today it’s a taboo of the sudda group as we call it our group
...when
I used to be embarassed when dad dropped me off to school on his
scooter and I used to crib for him driving so slow. I irritatingly
compared him to the pedestrians...and now I feel bad and wonder how
hurt he must have been by my silly acts…… but he never complained.
Sorry Dad 
...when winter vacation, summer vacation something very obvious
...When it was considered “hep†to wear jeans
...when I used to buy ‘imli’ and ‘masalamooli’ from a roadside seller after school
...when I used to leave home with socks pulled up, and were fashionably pulled down once I reached school
...when the best way to spend vacations was to visit 'Naani'sPlace'
...when I hated the fact that I could never be Number 1, and always got the same remark in my report cards “ Can do betterâ€
...when answering a question in class was a considered to be the achievement of the day
...when holiday homework was completed on the last day of the vacations
...when I was caught reading ‘NancyDrew’ while pretending to read a lesson from course book ;)
...when movies were meant only to be watched on TV. The first movie that dad took us for was ‘Hum Aapke Hain Kaun!’, that too when he got reviews of it being a clean movie !!
...when there used to be a ban on watching cable TV as there was risk of our getting spoiled
...when make up meant ‘wedding of really close relative’ and deodrant was a luxury item
...when having a ‘Barbie doll’ was something to make friends jealous
...when having a two wheeler to ride to tuition classes was a great possession
...when bunking the class was a happening thing to do
...when mamta kulkarni was the hottest bebe (yukk!!!!!!!!!!)
...when
kissing scenes in movies which were depicted through two flowers coming
together, or the two beaks of birds, were enough to embarass us
...when talking to a guy on phone was kept hush hush
...when any guy friend was equated to BF by friends
...when I longed to be teachers pet and we considered offering her our tiffin could earn us few points
"Old friends, Winter companions, The old men Lost in their overcoats, Waiting for the sunset. The sounds of the city, Sifting through trees, Settle like dust On the shoulders Of the old friends. Can you imagine us Years from today, Sharing a park bench quietly? How terribly strange To be seventy. Old friends, Memory brushes the same years Silently sharing the same fears"
