Shah Rukh Khan old video: Long before he ascended to the throne of Bollywood, Shah Rukh Khan was a familiar face on Indian television screens. While still cutting his teeth as an actor, he also hosted a New Year’s Eve show on Doordarshan.
A recently unearthed video clip from this era offers a fascinating glimpse into the early days of the superstar. In the footage, a young and exuberant Khan is seen introducing the legendary singer Kumar Sanu with the witty remark, “Kumar Sanu, wohi hai jo Kishore Kumar ke andaaz mein gaate hain?” (Kumar Sanu, the one who sings in the style of Kishore Kumar).

Shah Rukh Khan’s television career
Khan’s television career extended beyond hosting. The actor got his first breakthrough in Lekh Tandon’s ‘Dil Dariya.’ In an old interview, Tandon had shared how Shah Rukh got the role. “When I was making my television serial, ‘Dil Darya’, I had left a message at Sushma Seth’s home that I would like to work with her daughter, Divya. Divya Seth got down from her car and the driver was her friend, Shah Rukh Khan. He dropped her off and was leaving when I asked her to call him back. When he arrived, I told him that if he cuts his hair, I would give him work in my serial,” he had said.
Though he got his first break in Dil Dariya, the iconic series Fauji aired before it, making it SRK’s debut show. He then went on to work in popular shows like Aziz Mirza’s Circus and Mani Kaul’s thought-provoking miniseries Idiot. He also made notable appearances in Umeed and Wagle Ki Duniya, showcasing his versatility as an actor. Interestingly, Khan even ventured into English-language cinema with the film In Which Annie Gives It Those Ones.
Shah Rukh Khan transitioned to films, making his Bollywood debut in 1992 with the romantic drama Deewana and the rest is history!
Shah Rukh Khan’s impact extends far beyond India. His immense popularity has earned him a massive global following, making him one of the most recognisable faces in the world.
