I wish the clash had not happened: SRK

- Team RadioCity

Team Radio City caught up with the Raees Badshah of the moment, Shah Rukh Khan. Read an excerpt from our quick chat with him.What makes you feel Raees, inspite of having achieved so much?SRK: I feel being Raees is not about being materialistic or rich. It is the act of being benevolent and not selfish. When it comes down to being Raees, I feel like giving back more towards my work, because my work has given me a lot. So I feel more responsible towards giving joy to others through my work and I constantly strive at that.Whenever you interact with your fans on Twitter or anywhere that you go, people can connect towards your characters very deeply. They feel like you represent them. Did you get any such reaction post the trailer of 'Raees'?SRK: My belief is that heroes should not be special. That becomes boring. Heroism is not about beating up the bad guys and winning over the girl. Heroes should be as ordinary as they can. The struggle should be real. Heroes happen as they evolve with time. Whenever I choose a role, he is not meant to be powerful or extraordinary, he is simple and human. My kids too wish that I take up roles where I get to be heroic, but I prefer downplaying them.The chase sequences in the film are being spoken about. What for you makes it special?SRK: We flew down a crew of specialists from Romania for it, they designed these sequences with the action director Ravi Verma. These sequences have been designed over the rooftops in Gujarat. So these are pretty rustic, yet sleek.The dynamics that you share with Nawazuddin Siddiqui in the film are applause-worthy. How was it working with him for the first time?SRK: First of all, I find his eyes very beautiful. There is something very deep in his eyes. He is much younger to me by age but he is such a simple human being. He is a completely opposite actor than I am. What I like about him is that he not overtly intense or serious. Whenever we would prepare for a scene, he comes across as very confident.There is a dialogue in the film where he tells you to cultivate the habit of drinking tea. But you are coffee lover in reality right?SRK: Why do you think I kick away the tea then? laughs. I was a tea person in Delhi but now I am a strictly coffee person.There was a floating rumour that the story is inspired by a real person. It is not an added responsibility then that you should not glorify the bad?SRK: Yes there were rumours and I believe even a case was filed against us. But tell me something, which guy who is on the wrong side of the law is likely to sing 'Zaalima' for his lady? So yes, this movie is a work of fiction.But how do manage this contrast? When we meet you in person, we feel like you're one among us, but when we see you on screen, you bring an aura to your personality. Really, how?SRK: Its fictitious, it's not real. I get an opportunity to be something which I am not.We cannot help but ask your views about the clash with 'Kaabil'SRK: I wish the clash had not happened. But we both had our sides to stick to. Yet I sincerely hope that both our films do well. Because Rakeshji and Hrithik are very close to me, I wish well for them. Plus, there are many holidays this year, so business in general for films should be very good.Finally, for those who still haven't seen 'Raees' yet, is it a family entertainer?SRK: Why not, it is. Though the story is about a man who is on the wrong side of the law, he still leads a family life. So it's a gentle story about a bad guy.
