1. Om Shanti Om
We had to kick things off with this one! Om Shanti Om is where SRK gives Bollywood its ultimate tribute – and it’s wildly entertaining. With his role as Om, the passionate junior artist turned reincarnated superstar, Shah Rukh brings charm, drama, and an infectious energy. And let’s not forget “Dhoom Taana,” the song that pretty much had us all hooked. With Deepika Padukone in her dazzling debut, it’s all about SRK showing us why Bollywood lives and breathes through him.
2. My Name is Khan
Who doesn’t remember this one? SRK’s Rizwan Khan is unforgettable. Playing a character with autism who’s on a mission to meet the U.S. President, he steps out of his comfort zone to give us a raw, intense performance that stays with you. There’s emotion, strength, and a message that hits hard: “My name is Khan, and I am not a terrorist.” Shah Rukh’s portrayal of Rizwan resonates deeply, and this film is one you simply must experience if you haven’t already.
3. Swades
One word – iconic. SRK as Mohan Bhargava, the NASA scientist who rediscovers his roots, brings a beautiful blend of patriotism, love, and a powerful message about returning to our roots. This isn’t your typical Bollywood glam; it’s real, grounded, and full of heart. And, honestly, seeing SRK take on a role so rooted in reality is something else. This film shows us that SRK isn’t just a romance icon – he’s so much more.

4. Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa
Oh, Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa, the gem where SRK plays the adorable loser we can’t help but root for. In this film, SRK’s Sunil isn’t the typical hero – he’s messy, flawed, and absolutely relatable. He’s the guy who loves deeply and messes up, but with so much heart that you just want to see him win. This movie is an underrated slice of SRK magic, showing his range early on and reminding us why he’s the King of Hearts.
5. Chak De! India
If you’re a fan of sports films, this one’s non-negotiable. SRK plays Kabir Khan, a disgraced hockey coach with a dream to redeem himself and his team. It’s intense, inspiring, and one of Shah Rukh’s best performances. No romance here – it’s SRK in his gritty, determined best. Watching him lead the women’s hockey team with fierce conviction and heart? Goosebumps every time.
6. Veer Zaara
Ah, classic romance! Veer Zaara is quintessential SRK – all about love that knows no borders, with Shah Rukh playing the soulful Veer, whose love story with Zaara is the stuff of legends. It’s grand, it’s emotional, and SRK brings Veer’s love and pain to life in a way that only he can. Set against a beautiful Indo-Pak backdrop, it’s all about love, sacrifice, and that timeless SRK charm.

7. Yes Boss
Let’s wrap up with a rom-com, shall we? Yes Boss is SRK’s classic boy-next-door vibe where he’s charming, funny, and oh-so-relatable as Rahul. His chemistry with Juhi Chawla lights up the screen, and the story of chasing dreams and love with a touch of SRK’s lighthearted charm makes it a fun watch every time. It’s Shah Rukh in his element – and one that’ll leave you with a smile.
So, there you have it – seven films to keep the SRK spirit alive this birthday week. Whether you’re in the mood for romance, drama, or just some classic Shah Rukh charm, each of these films has something that’ll remind you why he’s the King of Bollywood.
