I think a huge reason why SRK's acting moves me so much is because of the way he uses his voice. So much passion, so much conviction and so much emotion. I can just listen to some of them on the loop.

We're two months away from his 50th birthday. I didn't want to wait that long before making this topic but this is very much dedicated to that occasion. I thought it will be a great idea for SRK fans to recall some of his memorable dialogues.
I think apart from the 'Sattar Minute' scene (that's just so obviously SRK at his best that it needs no posting!), these three monologues/dialogues left a great impact on me.

^Dil Se is a CRIMINALLY underrated performance of SRK, imo. See this scene, and I rest my case! I don't know how he did it😳

^I remember the first time I watched this scene, I literally had goosebumps. That little coarseness yet softness at 'ghar kaise jaa sakta hoon' straightaway touched my heart. I have cried in exactly five Bollywood movies in my entire life but this was very close to being the sixth precisely because of just how intense SRK was in this and the last courtroom scene. The reason I picked this one out of the two though is because I was blown away by how palpable the extent of Veer's love for Zaara was here.

^3:11-4:15 is of course an extremely moving dialogue. I can literally hear the tears in SRK's voice. But I would actually like to draw everyone's attention to the last few seconds. 'Woh theek hai, Maa. Woh theek hai. Kyunki uske paas woh hai jo mere paas bhi nahi, uski Maa ki chitthiyaan'. Especially the underlined portion, the way he sighs and his voice drops to a whisper. Of this entire film, this one little line stayed with me the most from an acting PoV.
Now this list is in no way exhaustive. There are just too many iconic ones to choose from. Hence I would love to see what others pick. Share away guys!
