This isn’t going to be nearly as good as yesterday’s post, but then what could be? Anyway, let’s compare and contrast Shahrukh’s various smile options!
Closed Lipped With Dimples






Open Mouth Teeth Showing






Caught in a Laugh





Those are the three he uses in real life, but I also have to acknowledge the rare and powerful, only used in films, “slight smile so I don’t cry”




Which is your favorite? How would you rank them? Am I missing a category?
I’ve always thought that, whether smiling or laughing, there is something intrinsically sad in his eyes. And unless he is caught in a laugh, his lips don’t curve up in a standard smile. Smiling, laughing, crying – he needs a cuddle.

It was interesting looking at these photos how similar his smile is to his crying face.

These are some great pictures. It is difficult to choose just one, But, I’m going with the grey shirt and suspenders one. He looks happy.

I think of that as his “can you believe how funny suspenders are?” look.

Going with caught laughing. He is extremely good at moving his face muscles around to flash the dimples or otherwise appeal to the audience. I like the unguarded moments where he’s just reacting spontaneously, like someone who hasn’t spent his entire adult life being filmed and photographed from every conceivable angle.

Yes! When I started looking at the smiling photos, there was a clear identical expression in many of them. He knows the smile that looks good and shows off his dimples and he pulls it out whenever the photographers ask. And it is very different from his “caught laughing” smile.

Absolutely clothes lips smile with dimples. Secondarily I like seeing him when he’s caught in a genuine laugh and smile it’s just so alluring. I feel like what you see in his eyes to me isn’t intrinsically sad it’s intrinsically thoughtful and aware of the world. I think he really speaks with his eyes and you can see his feelings in them.

I think the closed lip smile is maybe the most unique to him smile. It’s small and upside down but with his eyebrows and dimples, he makes it work like a smile. Really it only works on his distinctive face.

Closed mouthed, turned down corners is very sexy. But I like all his smiles, and caught in a laugh is my favorite. Especially when he throws his head back, or covers his face with his hands. It is so preciously unguarded.

And how about the “ha, I just made another person burst out laughing, that delights me” smile?
