Here's a little controversial thought of mine. I strongly believe Shah Rukh is the identity of Indians. Whether you hate him or like him but the fact is that if you go anywhere in this world, you have 60% chance of being greeted with "You are from Shah Rukh's country!"
He has introduced India to the world through his movies. He is the main reason why I have more knowledge of India more than my own USA or Bangladesh!
I believe India should be proud of him but then again, there are spoilers...meaning haters who in actual have no brain or even a single idea of how Shah Rukh is representing India to the whole world.
My case is different though...my family's been exposed to Indian culture or whole India since way before even I was born or Shah Rukh was in Bollywood. But I have read numerous stories from others who are said to have fallen in love with Indian culture and movies after knowing Shah Rukh.
This is the reason why Shah Rukh's movies are always guaranteed to be a blockbuster overseas because he is extremely adored and loved worldwide. I still don't understand experts' worries regarding Indian audience though.
So if you are a Indian, be proud to belong to Shah Rukh's country. If you are a world citizen with a heart, be proud to be a Shah Rukh Khan fan. :)
OK, enough chatter for today and ignoring my exam. :0
