Indian Film Industry OR Bollywood was ruled over for a long time by the Big-B Amitabh Bachan. But time has changed now. SRK or Shahrukh Khan (Also known by the names Badshah or King Khan) is the latest heartthrob not only for girls but for children, young and old.

This thin boy from Delhi started his career as a TV actor with the serials Fauji and Circus and later joined Bollywood with his debut film Deewana (1992).

Today, Shahrukh khan (SRK) is a well known personality around the globe. Not only is Shah Rukh Khan a great actor, but he is also a very intelligent person with excellent sense of humor and because of all these qualities, Shahrukh is turning out to be a successful entrepreneur as well by producing films and taking active interests in cricket and other sports.

Shahrukh Khan is also ranked 41 in Top 50 Most Powerful People In the World, 2008 (Newsweek Magazine)
