In August 2024, Shah Rukh Khan attended the 77th edition of the Locarno Film Festival. During his time in the city, he graced an episode of the podcast Locarno Meets, which has now been released. The actor was asked if there were any types of roles that he hasn’t been able to do till now and wishes to play in the future.
In response, Shah Rukh shared that he would love to play many roles and characters, but he didn’t know how differently he would be able to play them. He stated, “I am not stereotyped; I am hero type.” SRK continued by saying that he played his roles like a hero, in a larger-than-life way, and he didn’t know how much that would be appreciated.

During the conversation, Shah Rukh Khan also revealed his different thought process about acting. He shared that many actors started to believe the character that they were portraying. SRK explained, “Lot of actors talk to me like, ‘This character won't say this’ and I am like you’re the creator of the character.”
