Yes, Chhaiya Chhaiyya was THE iconic song and dance! SRK and Malaika rocked it on top of the moving train! Preity was cute and bubbly in her debut film, Manisha-SRK were intense!
The film was ahead of its time! Nowadays with content suddenly being appreciated by Indian audiences, Dil Se would have been a hit too if it had been released now.
But Dil Se is a very depressing movie...It would've got its critical acclaim but I doubt if it would've done well...
Anyways on the topic, yes SRK owned Chayya Chayya for sure...Also I cannot imagine anyone else doing the big bro in KKKG, the damaged coach in the Chak De!, the wannabe American in Swades...the failed lover in Kabhi ha Kabhi na...the ambitious youngster in Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman...etc..These are the roles that made him iconic...Not the so called Rahul stuff !
