Superstar status came to this Jamia Millia Islamia student in steady sips. Today, SRK is a brand.But, what has remained uncorrupted about this dimpled star is his candidness. Never feigning unnecessary modesty about his numero uno position, Khan says he absolutely enjoys the perks of stardom.
The sentimentalist Shah Rukh says that apart from wealth, stardom brings other souvenirs. He finds these in the lit-up smiles when fans spot him racing down the roads. He cherishes the excitement of the crowds (even NRIs) when they see him on stage. He feels wonderful when people, who throng outside his palatial mansion Mannat, Bandra, get ecstatic when he happens to step out.
The VVIP treatment which he is meted out at foreign airports also is a gesture he delights in. Khan feels pursuing stardom is all about chasing these intangible joys. And in turn when he is greeted by this goodwill, why not live up to them?
