Shahrukh wanted to be like Kumar Gaurav

He even saw the 80s movie 'Love Story' three times in one day!

He's a superstar today, but long before that Shah Rukh Khan was star struck. He saw a movie and wanted to be just like its hero. In SRK's case, the movie was 'Love Story (1981)' and the star was Kumar Gaurav. 

SRK posted on his Twitter account today, "Fm in car playing song from Hindi film Love Story...kumar gaurav & vijeta...saw it 3 times in one day...wanted to be like Kumar Gaurav."

Shah Rukh added, "Met Kumar Gaurav and told him so. Had seen film with my mom. Strange how memories get attached with stars and they become important. Hug to him."

And Shah Rukh is on his way to recovering from the bout of fever and cold that hit him last week. He tweeted earlier today, "Apologies the fever won. Bedridden with the taste of burnt steel in my mouth or so it seems. Today will try & work my way back to health."

He speaks of the experience in rather staccato bursts, as if unwilling to discuss a career noted, more than anything else, for its massive run of ill luck. For   Bunty , as he is fondly known, is acknowledged as a fine actor. His very first film, Love Story, brought him adulation and bouquets in no mean measure. The industry pundits predicted that a star worth watching had been born. Challenging roles like   Janam (1985)   and   Naam (1986)   followed, but he was unable to reactivate the audience's response to successful stars. Though everyone acknowledged his acti...

I don’t miss anything about Bollywood: Kumar Gaurav Actor Kumar Gaurav doesn’t harbour any Regrets about turning his back on films. You’ve been dormant in Bollywood  since the early 1990s. What has kept you occupied? Gaurav : I’ve been keeping busy in life. I have a travel business in Maldives and I was into some construction (business).
