Shah Rukh Don

The Badshah of Bollywood has delivered another hit with his latest Don. Inspite of the not-so-good reviews that the movie got at the time of its release, the movie has managed to do good business as per the market reports. And making money is the prime objective of commercial cinema.

It is this money making ability despite all odds is what impresses me the most about SRK. I admire him, not for his work but for his ability to overcome the shortcomings. I mean here is a guy that has average looks, atleast as compared to some of his other better looking colleagues in Bollywood. His acting skills are not something to rave about, considering the over dose of acting that is there in all his performances. He lacks the voice of an industry icon like Mr. Bachchan (who can forget the K - K - Kiran?). His dances are not his USP for sure. He plays the loverboy who gets his girl in almost all his movies - read lack of variety in performances.

Inspite of all this he manages to do well not only for himself but for his producers too! Now that's definitely impressive!! Hats off to you King Khan - for achieving all that you have through hard work and making a mark for yourself inspite of a non filmi background.
