Shah Rukh Khan has long been regarded as the king of romance, yet he is also a very good comedy actor. Here are few of the finest movies to explore.

Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa (1994)

In this Kundan Shah-directed film, SRK portrayed a young musician who aspires to pursue his goals but is thwarted by his parents, who believe he is not serious about his career and want him to acquire a respectable job. The main focus of the movie is how he changes his life and nearly wins the girl he loves.
Yes Boss (1997)

Shah Rukh Khan starred in the Aziz Mirza-directed movie as a middle-class worker who is prepared to betray his boss in order to get rich. Along the way, he meets Juhi Chawla, the love of his life, and discovers that certain things are more valuable than cash. It was a lighthearted comedy with a strong message, and we hope SRK will make more movies like it.

Baadshah (1999)
SRK comedy films

Directed by Abbas Mustan, SRK portrayed a detective agency in Baadshah that was terribly out of his depth. When it comes to solving situations, he relies more on luck than on his own creativity. He unintentionally joins a conspiracy to assassinate the Goa chief minister but stops it in its tracks. The characters in the movie have ridiculous names. Aditya Chopra was an agent, and Raakhee’s last name was Bachchan.

Main Hoon Na (2004)

Farah Khan made her directorial debut with the movie. In the film, SRK portrayed an undercover army officer who returns to school to serve as a general’s daughter’s covert bodyguard, ultimately bringing his separated family back together. His infatuation with Sushmitha Sen, a student teacher, became the talk of the town. Many of the film’s humorous moments were a nod to classic movies.

Om Shanti Om (2007)

The movie, which was directed by Farah Khan, was a paranormal comedy that honored Madhumati (1958). In the first part, Shah Rukh played a young artist who falls in love with a superstar, played by Deepika Padukone in her first role. He gets revenge on the person who killed him and his beloved after reincarnating as a famous actor. In contrast to Madhumati’s solemn tone, Farah kept the proceedings lively. The film’s high point was the friendship between SRK and Shreyas Talpade.

Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi (2008)

The film, which was directed by Aditya Chopra, told the endearing story of a middle-class man who seeks to impress his young wife by becoming more stylish. In the end, he disguises himself and joins her for Bollywood dance classes. Indeed, it was somewhat unlikely, but isn’t that the case with all fairy tales?

Chennai Express (2013)
SRK comedy films

Shah Rukh Khan’s perpetual lover myth was parodied in this Rohit Shetty-directed film. In the movie, he portrayed a lazy Halwai who meets the woman of his dreams by happenstance, and chaos follows. As a girl who specializes in escaping from home, Deepika Padukone played a hilarious part. Their sequences together were hilarious, particularly the ones in which they spoke with one another in antakshari, a code.

Happy New Year (2014)
SRK comedy films

This Farah Khan-directed movie combined elements of a heist and a musical. The humorous elements come from SRK organizing a group of outcasts to carry out a highly unlikely heist. SRK played a really cool burglar who had to maintain composure in the face of his crew’s crazy antics.
