Shah Rukh Khan feels he is 'too short' to play James Bond: 'But I am brown enough to...'

The megastar of Bollywood, Shah Rukh Khan, who delivered a hattrick of success in 2023 with Pathaan, Jawan and Dunki, won millions of hearts on the third day of the ongoing World Governments Summit in Dubai, with his wit and charming personality. The actor also said that he would to play James Bond, but will even settle to play a Bond baddie. “I am not a legend … I am Bond, James Bond. I would love to play James Bond, but I am too short to play Bond … But I am brown enough to play the Bond baddie,” said Khan in an interactive session with CNN journalist Richard Quest. Talking about doing Hollywood films, he added, “I know many people from the American and the English film industries. But nobody has offered me good work and I wondered if I was spreading myself too thin. I was offered ‘Slumdog Millionaire’, but I felt that the role of the game show host was too mean.”

“I felt I was cheating and being dishonest … And Anil Kapoor, who finally played the role, was fantastic,” said Khan. Spilling the beans about his massive setbacks with Fan and Zero, SRK said, “I had massive flops, and I was licking my wounds. I have never said this to anyone, but in those four years I learned how to make the best pizza in the world. I stopped listening to stories or wanting to tell stories. I made myself a small kitchen and learned how to make pizza. I learned perseverance.” Known to be the romantic poster boy, SRK calls himself a reluctant lover and said, “But I never wanted to be an actor peddling love. I wanted to be an action guy wearing that white vest, girl on my side, and speaking in baritones. But I never got the opportunity. Promising hope, giving hope, and spreading love through my movies is what works for me.”
