The essence is that I leave something of me in every role — not 100 per cent. - Shah Rukh Khan

Money is a good thing to run after. It is very important to be financially stable but you have to keep your wrongs and rights in mind. Don't shy away from earning but without selling your soul.

I bring excitement on the sets. I’m an exciting actor, overrated, exaggerated. But I’m not an unexciting actor. I excite people. I never lose hope. If I feel that a film is going wrong somewhere, I do even better.

If money-making was my aim, I could have done two ad films or shows and earned the same amount of money -- probably more -- in just two or four days.
