Shah Rukh Khan turns 51, here's wishing him a very Happy Birthday and happier times and thanks him for all life lessons that he imparted. You can’t really call yourself a Bollywood buff until you have binge watched Shah Rukh Khan’s movies and become his admirer, for his style of extending arms or the dimpled smile can anyday entice you into falling in love with him. Add to this his inimitable charm and incomparable wits, and you are left with nothing but wonder and in awe of this superstar. Belonging to a humble household from Delhi, Shah Rukh Khan, like a true superstar, excelled in sports and academics and received the highest honor of his school. A bachelor’s degree in Economics and rolling in for a masters’ in Journalism go on to prove the wits he had.

Shah Rukh Khan had his share of struggle. His father died of cancer in 1981, and his mother died in 1991 from complications of diabetes. After the death of their parents, his older sister, Shehnaz Lalarukh, born in 1960, fell into a depressed state and Shah Rukh Khan took on the responsibility of caring for her. Shehnaz Lalarukh continues to live with her brother and his family in their Mumbai mansion. But these problems were soon over when he got his break for a TV show Fauji. Portraying the role of Captain Abhimanyu Rai, Shah Rukh Khan made his way to the audiences’ hearts and producers’ mind. His debut movie Deewana became a hit soon after.

It’s said that Shah Rukh Khan's wife wasn’t quite pleased with the success of the movie, for he then stayed back in Mumbai. But as destiny had it, even his movies as the solo male lead like Dil Aashna Hai, Chamatkaar and Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman scored well at the box office. And the rest as they say is history. Recently, when Shah Rukh Khan gave his address at the University of Edinburgh, he intercepted his speech with references from his movies. But if his whole journey through all these years is traced, many a lessons can be derived. For one, when he acted in his first collaboration with Yash Raj Films Darr, many said that this decision would take his rising career down. But contrary to the popular belief, not only was Shah Rukh Khan praised for his acting in the movie, there also began Shah Rukh Khan’s life long association with YRF.

Always ready to take risks and spread his wings, when Shah Rukh Khan was offered YRF’s Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge , already rejected by Hollywood superstar Tom Cruise and Bollywood star Saif Ali Khan, he accepted the challenge of transforming from a murderer to an absolute lover onscreen. And that paid him extremely well. Not only is DDLJ a cult classic in itself, it’s also responsible for giving Shah Rukh Khan the stature of the most romantic hero in Bollywood. With movies like Dil Toh Paagal Hai and Kuch Kuch Hota Hai , Shah Rukh Khan just raised the bar of romance in the country and became, perhaps, a bane for all the men in the country. Girls were then swooning over Shah Rukh Khan and dreaming of a partner like Raj or Rahul, immortalised by Shah Rukh Khan.
