Shah Rukh Khan Reveals Why Daughter Suhana Can Turn Out To Be A Better Actor Than Him!

He is one of the biggest superstars of all time, if not the biggest. But his critics wonder if he is one of the finest actors of all time. For his fans though Shah  Rukh Khan is the ultimate demigod, a rare breed of sorts, that falls under that unspoken category of 'Superstarstars Who Can Act' to leave an indelible mark on the zeitgeist.

Not that the man has not given us some really impressive performances in his critically acclaimed films such as Swades and Chak De India, but those are few and far between. On the cash counters though Shah Rukh rules like no other superstar can, the globe over, enjoying the stardom that only a supernova like Tom Cruise can taste and relish.

Even after proving his potential as a performer with a tremendous zest to refine his acting skills, Shah Rukh Khan, for some odd as indeed for some obvious reasons struggles to find a place in the list of the most bona fide actors. Somehow his stardom gains larger than life proportion than his body of work, which is normally and quite unfairly termed as mass-ey.

Shah Rukh Khan himself is not entirely hesitant in admitting the fact that he had--in his own words--not much ilm (knowledge) about acting, but he constantly made an effort to learn the craft. Perhaps that's the reason why he is glad that daughter Suhana is acquiring the much-needed knowledge and nuances of the art of acting.

There has been enough chatter about Suhana breaking into the world of showbiz. Has she expressed her wish to become an actor to her superstar father, we quizzed SRK. "No. She wants to act, but she needs to train for 3-4 years. She is doing few plays and theatre in London now and hopefully will shift to America. She came here to learn as a part of acting, to spend time on productions. And I wanted her to see Katrina (Kaif) and Anushka (Sharma) because both of them are such different kind of actors. Katrina has her own charm and Anushka has her own way of enacting things," said SRK.

He continued, " I think, the ground experience is good for actors or for any job for that matter, but you also have to finish your education. So, I want her (Suhana) to study for 3-4 years, even if she wants to become an actor. In India, we don’t learn acting, we just assume that we are talented. We should always learn things before we come on the ground," insisted Khan, probably hinting at Suhana's possible and much-awaited entry in Bollywood!
