Shah Rukh Khan's career is prolific.
Summary India's superstar actor Shah Rukh Khan explains why he has never been in a Hollywood movie during his entire career. Born in 1965, Khan has had a prolific career in Hindi-language film and TV, beginning with the TV series Dil Dariya in 1988. Since then, Khan has gone on to act in over 100 projects, most recently including the hit films Jawan and Pathaan, as well as Dunki. His upcoming projects include titles such as King, Operation Khukri, and Tiger vs Pathaan.
Speaking with Variety, Khan explains why he has never acted in a Hollywood film over the course of his 36-year career. While admitting that Hollywood is "the world's greatest and biggest cinema in terms of reach," he asserted that he will only want to take a role "worthy of the status the Indian audience has given" him. Without risking seeming "flippant" or "uppity," the actor confirmed how much he appreciates the quality of projects.
I come across as very flippant and happy-go-lucky, but I fully respect and realize the amount of adulation I have, how people adore me. People look up to what I do. People have given me too much respect. People have given me and my family everything that I have, people of India and all around the world, Indians and people from the subcontinent.
How Shah Rukh Khan's Choice Differs from Other Indian Actors The Bollywood to Hollywood Pipeline Has Moved Along Before While Khan includes the line that he hopes he "can speak English well enough," the actor's absence of Hollywood roles is not for lack of opportunities. Given his extremely high profile in Bollywood, Khan has been approached to star in some Hollywood films in the past.
