“My anger is Wankhede type”: Shah Rukh Khan

From the angry young man the gentleman, Dilwale has seen the best of versatility from Shah Rukh Khan. If you don’t already don’t know, then here’s this little piece of information of you. Dilwale has caught SRK in two completely different avatars, in two different time zones. How does the actor himself define his ‘angry young man’ look?

If reports are true, then Shah rukh’s angry avatar will resemble none other than Amitabh Bachchan in the 80’s. “Bahut badi baat bol di (It’s an honour to be compared with Amitabh Bachchan). I don’t think I’m an angry young man like Amitabh Bachchan. My anger is Wankhede type.”

While he considers it an honour being compared with Big B, he also politely denied that he’d resemble Amitabh from 80’s in any way. “The film is based in two time zones. It’s not linear. It isn’t one of those which starts somewhere and there’s a time span by the end. It has the technique that keeps coming in and going out. Rohit Shetty has tried to make me a macho since long time. So I think maybe I’m a little macho in DILWALE. There are moments like that. And as I said, there’s a lot of action. But it is a very beautiful family type entertainer. There’s a lot between that – sexiness, comedy, lot of drama and emotion, action and everything else a person would like to see in two and a half hours of entertainment.”- he further added.

We do hope it’s true!
