How Shah Rukh Khan became a Deewana


Shah Rukh Khan, who gained popularity as a television actor in the late 1980s, made the move to the big screen with the film Deewana, which starred Divya Bharti and Rishi Kapoor.Deewana (1992) was the ideal starting point for Shah Rukh Khan’s career. Raj Kanwar directed the film, which was a huge hit at the movie office and still has music at the top of the charts.

As it occurred, Armaan Kohli was signed on as the second hero when the movie was first released, with Rishi Kapoor playing the lead role and Divya Bharti playing the leading lady. Armaan quit the film midway through the shoot, leaving the filmmakers to face a difficult decision about who would take his place.

Guddu Dhanoa was advised by Shekhar Kapoor to try to sign Shah Rukh Khan. Guddu Dhanoa told him that he was unaware of Shah Rukh Khan’s identity. Then Shekhar told to him that he has experience with TV series like Circus and Fauji. According to Guddu, when he inquired about Deewana, Shah Rukh immediately said, “He had Raju Bann Gaya Gentleman, Chamatkar, Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa, Dil Aashna Hai, and King Uncle.” This means that he had no dates. only managed to pull it off in the end when the 20-day Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman filming was canceled, and he consented to Deewana. The signing bonus for SRK was Rs 11,000, and his total fee was Rs 1.5 lakh. Rishi Kapoor, on the other hand, was the highest-paid actor at that time.

Even though Deewana was the sixth movie he signed, half of the shooting had already been completed when SRK joined the project, making it SRK’s debut release. “What’s written in destiny can’t be changed,” he said, referring to the picture for which he didn’t have the dates that became his first release.

There is a love triangle in the Deewana movie between Raja, Kajal, and Ravi. Ravi is a well-liked pop singer in the area with a large following that spans both genders. Beautiful Kajal, a young woman in love with Ravi and his music, is one of his fans. After meeting Kajal, Ravi also develops feelings for her, and they soon tie the knot.

Ravi’s uncle hires some men to harm and kill him after the marriage. When they return, they tell him they’ve accomplished their goal. When Kajal learns of Ravi’s passing, she is distraught and adopts the ways of a Hindu widow. One day, she meets the affluent Raja Sahay, who instantly falls in love with her and makes a marriage proposal. Startled by this, Kajal at first declines to marry him but then gives in. Kajal’s life is filled with romance and life again, but it doesn’t last long as Ravi reappears in her life and is taken aback to find her remarried.

Excellent performances have been made by the full castact. The performance of the renowned Rishi Kapoor is outstanding. With his first significant film role, Shah Rukh Khan demonstrated that he would stick around—and he has. He demonstrated his abilities with remarkable and captivating delivery and mannerisms. As the heart and spirit of the film, Divya Bharti excels.

The music of Nadeem Shravan is amazing. Every song, including Teri Ummeed Tera Intezaar and Sochenge Tumhe Pyar, is enjoyable for the listeners. Legendary singers include Saadhana Sargam, Alka Yagnik, Kumar Sanu, and Vinod Rathod provide their lovely voice to these catchy tunes. They take us to a past age when the music in movies belonged to an entirely distinct genre.

The dialogue, background music, action and excitement, photography, and art direction are all expertly woven together in this picture. Because it takes place just as aesthetic trends are about to shift from the 1980s to the 1990s, it appeals to the audience in a different way. It’s full of 90s-style, cheesy sequences, but it still has a lot of impact.

From the beginning, Shah Rukh Khan established his rule. His performance was outstanding for a debut. He shot to fame in the country with his dreamy eyes and unquestionably young appeal. SRK is without a doubt the king of romance, and his performance in the movie is exceptional.
