As Shah Rukh Khan completes 42 years it is time to celebrate the success of a remarkable man with few peers. A man respected by his foes and fans alike. There are no traces of envy even among those who grudge his greatness, as there are very few like Shah Rukh. Probably, it is in the very name - Shah, after all, stands for royalty.
It will be cruel to compare any contemporary young Indian star with Shah Rukh. Even the most exceptional of them seem to be lacking one dimension or the other when it comes to the sheer mass appeal of this man. It is not just luck, or talent, but it is the harnessing of that very talent which separates him from the other equally talented. Shah Rukh is not the best of dancer, fighter, or lover boy - but he teases the audiences the way no body else does.
Perhaps the closest a person comes to resembling Shah Rukh’s persona is someone from altogether the other side of the fence. Who else but tennis champion Roger Federer! Both are incomparable geniuses, the quintessential champions of their art, always striving to improve. They have tremendous sense of history too, a must to become part of it. There are at least four similarities between the two, as they continuously strive to redefine greatness.
Loyalty: Both superstars are famed for their family values. They have never allowed any scandal to tarnish their good husband/companion image. Shah Rukh’s loyalty to his wife Gauri compares well with how Federer vibes with his girlfriend Mirka. Even when they have the world at their mercy, they do not change their girlfriends by the night, upholding the value of loyalty.
