Shah Rukh Khan Says He Loves Villains And Finds Heroes Boring

In the recently released Jawan, Shah Rukh Khan plays the good guy who has to act like a villain to achieve his noble objectives. Interestingly, Khan revealed in an interview, that he personally prefers villains to heroes.

In a conversation with IMDb, Khan was asked if he enjoyed playing an anti-hero more than a hero. The actor responded, “I never wanted to play the hero. I find heroes very boring. I find them doing all the good things. Just the nice things. To be able to do this good I need to quickly transfer to do bad to understand that part, so that I can come and do the good guy with a lot of gusto again, because, you know just playing the good guy again and again and again and being nice, puppy-eyed, doe-eyed, is boring after sometime. Personally, yes I like playing the bad guy. I love bad guys.”

Khan's film Jawan was released in theatres on September 7. The film is directed by Atlee and also stars Nayanthara and Vijay Sethupathi in central roles with a special appearance by Deepika Padukone.
