TIL Desk Bollywood/ Just one look, a dimpled smile and outstretched arms are all that Shah Rukh Khan needs to personify the ultimate lover on screen, but the reality is different says the superstar who describes himself as “pathetic”, “detached” and “demotional” when it comes to romance and relationships.
In an interview Shah Rukh says, “I am pathetic with relationships. I am so pathetic that I am comic.” “If somebody said what did you say to him or her when he or she said this, my answer would shock you.
They are like ‘but how could you?’ and I say, ‘I don’t know how else to relate to this.’ I am very bad with relationships, I am awful.” Unlike his characters on screen who travel continents to profess love, Shah Rukh prefers to hide his emotions. “I am extremely one-sided, perhaps even selfish.
Actually, I am very detached. I am demotional – emotional and detached, I don’t know how it works. I won’t be able to say anything that I’ve done in my films to a girl, or even in relationships… “I am extremely closeted, introverted, shy, reclusive and completely shut off about my emotions.”
