Ha! I thought of something clever! Still just a silly post, but at least with a semi-clever theme. And I did both stills and videos, so that’s something new.
1.1. Lust I couldn’t decide how best to represent this, but thankfully youtube came to my rescue. Thank you naina1961 for putting together all the best scenes!
And for a still photo option, this is the best I could find:
2. Gluttony. Only one possible option.
And for a still photo:
3. Greed. Thought of Yes Boss first, but this is much much better.
And for a still photo:
4. Sloth. Such an energetic actor, very hard to find this one! Thank goodness this song was mentioned recently.
And the still version, which I might like better:
5. Anger. This is pretty good, right? It’s an emotion we don’t see much in films.
And even more rarely in real life! Because it is terrifying
6. Envy. Well, that’s this whole movie, right?
And the still version. Love that epic envy face!

7. Pride. He struggles with this a lot, doesn’t he? But I think this song most perfectly encapsulates his real and reel pride.
I discovered as I was writing this that I don’t actually have a problem with any of Shahrukh’s “sins”. In fact, I kind of love them all. Makes him seem more human when he gives in to human failings.
Do you also love them? If so, which is your favorite? Mine is pride I think. Lust put up a good fight, but in the end, I just love the way he slaps people down and puts them in their place when they don’t respect him.
And, which video/photo that I did not include best represents your favorite sin? I’m still doing pride, I think it might be this photo.

I mean who mixes yoghurt & coconut juice?

Hmm. Maybe pride? Thinking he can pull off anything and everyone will still love him?

Going with gluttony. Because I like the idea of him enjoying food, drink, etc., and also because I like soft around the edges Shah Rukh better than no extra ounce of fat on him Shah Rukh. 🙂

See, i likd soft but skinny srk. So less enjoying food and more avoiding gym would be my preference. So i guess increase on the sloth.

Oh, how I would like to have more time to enjoy all your ShahRukh writing may it be new ones or reruns. It will only be AFTER his birthday, I think, that I can do more than only answer once in a while…
I think my opinion from last year is still my opinion when it comes to ShahRukh’s ‘sins’. I believe that he – as a living example of the harmonizing of opposites – encorporates every sin…and its opposite.
Still, If I have to choose one, it would be greed…greedy for knowledge, for acting, for getting love and positive feedback, for trying new things, for being inspiring, for money, for making people smile, for recognition, for being the motor of a movie, for being in demand, for being only with or in himself …
I have the feeling that ShahRukh’s kind of greed encapsulates the other sins.
And yet he is an extremely giving person 🙂

Oooo, greed is a very good one! I think I would put it simply, he is greedy for love. From his fans, his friends, his children, everyone.

That is what makes him unlike any of the other beloved stars. He is greedy for OUR love. He can’t get enough and there is no other star who projects that.
