There is something special about the superstar Shah Rukh Khan. The things he adores or stands by when it comes to his films, especially them, have significantly impacted us. From his onscreen energy, iconic moments, and dialogue delivery, King Khan is known for weaving magic his magic onscreen, which can get you etched in our hearts for a lifetime. Let us revisit such moments from his Bollywood films. 

Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge: No matter what, every 90's kid has once used the palate logic to look out for their ideal partner. 'Palat. Palate- these two simple repetitive words give us the feeling of a romantic intuition equivalent to love. “Raj, agar yeh tujhse pyaar karti hain, toh yeh palat ke dekhegi’. The 'Palat' moment comes from SRK's 'Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge'.

Devdas: Director Sanjay Leela Bhansali's magnum opus Devdas continues to be one of the most finely made films adored with impeccable performances by Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, and Madhuri Dixit. This romantic drama film was full of intense dialogues, so it will be challenging to choose one: "Har dukh aane waale Sukh ki chitti hoti hai ... aur har nuksaan hone waale fayde ka ishara."

Kal Ho Na Ho: Don't we all love Aman Verma in this movie? The film was superb, and Shahrukh was the leading man in all the scenes. But if we want to pinpoint one moment, it has to be seen at the Grand Central station where Shahrukh, with a fractious diary, had to convince the girl he loved that she was truly loved by someone else.

Kuch Kuch Hota Hai: His 1998 Karan Johar film is hands down every Bollywood fanatic's favourite. The one that personifies the beauty of Friendship,“Pyar dosti hai ... agar woh meri sab se achchi dost nahin ban sakti, to main usse kabhi pyar kar hi nahi sakta ... kyun ki dosti bina toh pyar hota hi nahin ... simple, pyar dosti hai”. 

Om Shanti Om: The dialogue "Kehte hain agar Kisi cheez ko dil se chaho ... to puri kainaat use Tumse milane ki koshish mein lag jaati hai" make a lot of sense because it's true, and of course, King Khan says it in the right way.

My Name is Khan: If you need to get to know the calibre of this superstar, watch the scene where he holds the placard of "Fix Almost Anything". Apart from this scene, you can also see the iconic scene where Rizvaan (Shahrukh) is seen helping out the people of Wilhelmina, Georgia, during a flood.

Chak De! India: Lacking motivation, Just listen to the iconic seize the ‘sattar minute’ speech by Shah Rukh “agar yeh sattar minute is team ka har player apni zindagi ki sabse badiya hockey khel gaya…toh yeh sattar minute khuda bhi tumse vapas nahi maang sakta…toh jao, jao aur apne aap se, is zindagi se, apne khuda se aur har us insaan se jisne tumhe tum par bharosa nahi kiya apne sattar minute cheen lo”.
