Barry John, the man behind SRK

He was Delhi’s resident authority on all things theatre and also on info related to Shah Rukh Khan’s early struggle as an aspiring actor and drama student. But ever since Barry John shifted base to Mumbai in 2007, the tempo of theatre activities in the city has somewhat slackened. But, Delhi’s loss seems to be Mumbai’s gain as Bollywood has found an actor in Barry.

 

‘ No other student has achieved the success SRK has’

No conversation with Barry is complete without a question or two about SRK. He is often credited with SRK’s success as an actor. How does that feel? “The credit goes to SRK that he learned all that he needed to launch himself to the highest galaxy of global stars,” says Barry.
