Will Shahrukh quit acting?

Expect the unexpected from Shahrukh Khan, the Baadshah of Bollywood. He may quit acting and jump into film direction if Karan Johar's views are any indication. The hit filmmaker has the gut feeling that Shahrukh has it in him to make a wonderful film director.

Karan Johar, who has worked with Shahrukh in a few films, including their latest film My Name is Khan, seems to be watching him from the close quarters. He is all praise for him and said that his ability to give attention to detail and empathise with different characters would make him a good director. He feels King Khan's ability to understand human nature and emotions is another attribute of a film director.

Well, Shahrukh Khan, who has been honoured with a doctorate degree by the Bedfordshire University, UK, for his contribution to arts and culture, has not expressed quitting films. But going by his recent moves, it looks like he would hang up the boots soon. He has turned businessman by owning IPL team Kolkata Knight Riders and produces films through his Red Chillies Entertainment banner. Moreover, his troubling shoulder would hamper his acting career.

But the big question is whether the hyper-active entertainer will choose to stay behind the limelight. Only Shahrukh can answer this!

Shahrukh Khan is the only reason I watch Indian movies. It would be a waste of a great actor in the movie industry. He rocks and I hope this is ONLY a rumour.

What a terrible prospect. The world would lose the greatest Actor hey have. Shahrukh Khan makes all the Films living, shining, brighting... A Film without Shahrukh is very boring. I hope that was only a rumuour because since I knew him, he's a part of our Family, we just love and respect him so much. God bless SRK
