He is the face of many brands. He also hosted the famous reality show Kaun Banega Crorepati once. Shahrukh Khan's mother Lateef Fatima always thought that her son had a striking resemblance with yesteryear actor Dilip Kumar. King Khan proved his mom right that he was destined to be a great Bollywood actor when he won his first Filmfare Award for best debut (Deewana) in 1993. By taking up Bollywood films like Darr and Baazigar, the actor surprised everyone with his unconventional choices. He played these negative roles with absolute elan and won accolades for his performances. SRK reached the peak of his career as Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge released in 1995. Since then he and Kajol (his co-star) in the film are considered as one of the best-looking jodis in B-town. The two appeared together in films like Kuch Kuch Hota Hain and My Name Is Khan and are still considered as one the most sought-after on-screen couples of B-town. The actor tried his hand at playing a superhero and doing a hardcore sci-fi film in 2011 (RA.One), but unfortunately, it didn't garner great numbers at the BO. In 2012, Khan was seen in the Bollywood movie Jab Tak Hai Jaan, which was also the last film directed by the late filmmaker Yash Chopra.
