I ADORE SRK. He has been my love since I was a toddler. I constantly defend him.
But-But-BUT-
Whenever I am low I go online & YouTube SRK as Asoka & laugh my guts out. đ¤Ł
He is absolutely the most AWFUL choice as Asoka. SRK can never do period movies just like PC can never do them. They lack not only the grace, but the BELIEVABILITY.
For an actor in histocial/period movie One needs to BELIEVE that they not only belong to that era but the movie & actors also need to transport you to that era.
Bebo as Kaurwaki was very charming because she has that. A stunningly beautiful that suits such movies to a T. So half her battle was won.
Added to the that is the fact that she's hell talented. Sorry, but SRK as an ACTOR, is not.
She was a relative newcomer, SRK is my absolute favourite and yet- You could not stop staring at her when she came on-screen.
SRK should top all the mis-matched actors lists for this one. đđ
