New Delhi: After two of our home grown beauties Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone have stepped into Hollywood, it is a common question to stars if they are keen to follow their suit. Wherever our stars go, they are questioned if they will follow the path. Till now, actors Akshay Kumar, Kareena Kapoor and Abhishek Bachchan have denied going to Hollywood saying they are happy here.
And now, superstar Shah Rukh Khan too has joined the list. Shah Rukh who enjoys a massive global stardom said that he is not interested in going to Hollywood because he is a nationalist.
Now this might confuse you, but King Khan during his interview to a leading daily made it clear that he wishes that Indian cinema is looked upto in the world and for that to happen he has to work hard.
Shah Rukh said that he thinks he is not good enough for Hollywood and went on,
“I have not looked elsewhere. I’m a patriotic person. I’ve always wanted to do something great for Indian cinema, but not as an actor; that is not greatness. I wanted to work something out, where Indian cinema would gain from what I’ve done, like VFX, etc.”

When probed further on why he didn’t try his hand in Hollywood acting, he made a honest confessions. King Khan said,
“I’m very shy. Even the people I work with on films have to be my friends. I get very awkward around new people. I get impressed by those [actors] who go out and speak in a different language, on a set in another country, and do well. That’s fantastic. But I get scared.”
Well, looks like SRK is comfortable in his place in Bollywood and will not go to Hollywood. And the stardom which he enjoys, we don’t think his fans would complain.
