RNBDJ last, but not the least: Shah Rukh

Bollywood star Shahrukh Khan, who has a penchant for acting with debutante, says that he has evolved as an actor after working with newcomers.

“It is always a new feeling working with newcomers. They teach you a lot,” Khan, who is paired against newcomer Anushka Sharma in his forthcoming film ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’, said during an interaction with media persons.

“They (newcomers) are not over-awed by the fact that you have done 60 films. They respect you a lot but do their own stuff,” he said.

“I see them responding to expressions in a new way and I get to learn. They help me be a better actor,” he added.

Khan’s tryst with newcomers began in 1993 when he was paired against Suchitra Krishnamurthy in the commercially and critically successful ‘Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa’.

The ‘Baadshah’ of Bollywood later went on to star with Mahima Chaudhary (Pardes-1997), Preity Zinta (Dil Se-1998), Gayatri Joshi (Swades-2004) and with the ‘Chak-De’ girls and last year with Deepika Padukone in ‘Om Shanti Om’.

On ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’, Khan said, the film deals with the trials and tribulations of husband-wife relationships.

“The film is an entertainer that is intriguing as well as thrilling and deals with the relationship that exists between a middle-class husband and wife,” he said. Incidentally, the movie is King Khan’s first release in 14 months.

“I haven’t had a release for a long time because of my schedules but I believe that this movie will fulfil the ‘kasar’ of the past 14 months. ‘Rab Ne Bana…’ is the last release of the year but not at all the least,” he added.

While his ‘Haule-Haule’ jig in the film is getting popular, Shahrukh remains modest about his dancing abilities. “I am not being modest but truly this ‘Pappu can’t dance saala. I genuinely have two left feet,” he said.
