The first Bollywood actor I heard of was Shahrukh Khan. Actually, that's a lie - Salman was the first, but it was SRK that got me hooked on Bollywood.
Love him or hate him, he definitely has an effect on people especially women. To many, he's a sex symbol, yet trying to pin point an exact reason as to why he is sexy is hard. He sure as hell isn't a looker in the Abraham/Rampal mode - his nose is way too big and he's short. So why, is he hot?
I tell you why - he's got tons of charisma. There's just that something special about SRK - the way he interacts with people in general especially his fans. I mean, he can take the plainest of girls and make them feel like Miss World. I watched the 'Now or Never' tour South African leg where SRK continuously invited average looking women on stage and made them feel beautiful. It's magic to see this man in action. The role I absolutely love of his is Aman from Kal Ho Naa Ho. He played this role to perfection because Aman is the epitome of SRK's persona.
Those who hate him are just jealous. One thing nobody can deny is that this man is a star.
