Baadshah (1999)
The film shows a small-time detective who has been mistaken as a CBI agent and gets involved in a mission of saving the Chief Minister from the assassination attempt. Not only does the film entertain the audience with twists and turns, thrillers and action but the comedy involved in the film attracts the audience greatly. The film “ Badshah” has introduced us to casino goggles, X-ray shades, lizard shoes, cars and Shah Rukh Khan doing parody as we have never seen him before.
Mohabbatein (2000)
Mohabaatein drifted from the regular storyline of Bollywood and started as an antithesis of love. The film gives us a beautiful view of the United Kingdom and the gurukul where SRK joined as a music teacher. Not only the film has shown a beautiful love story between SRK and Aishwariya but also the gurukul where the classes took place. Along with cinematography the songs of the film hold equal importance.
Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham (2001)
The film by Karan Johar is an all time favorite for most of the audience. The film shows a blend of family traditions as well SRK who tries to keep up the Indian values in a foreign land. People had loved his pairing with Kajol. Lata Mangeskar’s legendary voice in the title song of the film adds more to it. This film was another epic milestone for SRK and gained a huge success among the masses.
Kal Ho Na Ho (2003)
The film is set in New York and stars extremely attractive Preity Zinta along with SRK and Saif Ali Khan. The family based in New York prayed for an angel in their lives who could solve their problems. Shah Rukh Khan came as an angel to them in the form of a neighbor. This film was a huge hit but the ending was too sad for any Indian audience who loves SRK. He died of cancer and this ending highly disheartened the audience.
