Shah Rukh the mysterious Brand

Somebody please tell me the mystery behind this man's success.. really!!!

Points about him to be noted..
  • can't act for nuts.. makes every character shahrukh khan and not the other way round.. except for i think Swadesh..
  • Arrogant to the T and announces it proudly to the world..
  • part of that karan, farah kind of fake gang who think that they are the end of bollywood and everyone else is a fool...
  • His histrionics and attitude bore me to death and reason why i never watched Om shanti Om but i think i am an exception..

All the above points taken into consideration.. this man rules the silver screen and otherwise as well.. And he carries himself with much panache and style like no other.. people say whats great about him is that he is confident but i feel he is over confident..I know he has worked hard.. but dude i really feel this man is very lucky couldn't be what he is otherwise..He has got a business sense and he is just too good with that..

Was watching the press conference of the soon to begin quiz show "Kya aap paanchvi paas se tez hain" which will be hosted by Shah rukh on star plus.. the way he carried himself through the press conference was amazing.. he kept the journalists laughing and inspite of his sarcy comments and the make fun of people way he still manages to do it so subtely that no body minds..When the press asked the star head as to why shahrukh as the the host and no one else.. then without blinking his eye lid the dude replied .."because he is the only actor in todays generation who clicks as much with an 8 year old as he does with an 80 yr old" .. and to come to think of it i think thats true.. maybe because of the fanatical fans of shahrukh.. who i think are the biggest idiots.. but keeping my point of view aside.. the facts remain...

He literally endorses every brand..being very loud about the fact that if he gets money for it then he will endorse no matter what..

He has his own production house Red Chillies.. He just knows how to sell himself..

But somehow i feel that inspite of his unacceptable arrogant behaviour he is so accepted across.. wonder why? must be something that he must be doing right or is it just plain and simple luck in life.. somebody give me some views so i can get what he is all about really...

agreed that Shahrukh is a HAM actor but another movie where he has played a character other that Swades is Chak De India.He performed a level better than what he did in Swades i feel.As far as arrogance goes I feel he is not.I got to meet this famous guy during a shoot and he turned up at the shoot on time, did stuff what the photogrpaher told him to do and also added his own bit of creativity in it.There was a mentally retatrd kid in the shoot.As soon as the shoot got over he walked up to that kid and randomly shot pics with her.He also mingled well the other kids and their parents showing no signs of a big star.Yes when you are big you show it and proudly boast about it coz u`ve struggled for it and achieved it from start.He has kept away from politics unlike Mr. AB who is runnin around Ammar Singh.SRK rules and he started from TV and makin it BIG in cinema is no joke so what if he boasts bout it.Let him have his share of joys before some1 else takes over that place.....

Not that I consider Shahrukh Khan a great actor(apart from Swadesh & Chak De) but certian things that probably helped him click -

a) Lots of hardwork & a fair dose of luck;
b) Charisma & wit
c) Business acumen
d) Connections with the "right" people(who have helped him succeed)
e) His penchant for taking risks - he played the "villain" in his earlier movies(Baazigaar & Darr) when our then heroes wanted to be the good guy
