They have ruled Bollywood for over two decades. What makes the Three Khans — Shah Rukh, Aamir and Salman — the stars they are? How do some of their earliest directors remember them? And what makes us line up, Friday after Friday, to give them another chance?
Even the sharpest crystal-ball gazer would have baulked at predicting how these guys would turn out, given how they started out. One with a jitter-buggy stutter and the kind of moptop no girl should have taken seriously. Another who had to compete with cooing pigeons and a simpering sweetie for audience affection. And the third who danced on a table in the name of his papa, and sacrificed his life for his love.
A Bollywood quiz with these clues would be the easiest sweepstake in the world: Shah Rukh Khan. Salman Khan. Aamir Khan. Deewana. Maine Pyar Kiya. Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak.
