Shah Rukh Khan gave Hindi cinema some of its biggest romantic movies, from DDLJ to Kal Ho Na Ho among others. If you have grown up watching those movies, you are perhaps still under that spell. However, the plot of these movies does not stand the test of time.
Raj's and Rahul's start looking shoddy when you think about what was going on in the movies. SRK's romantic movies have always asked us to keep our disbelief, whether it is Rahul not acting correctly towards Anjali in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, or Aman being deceptive towards Naina in Kal Ho Na Ho. Devdas being an egoistic person who could not get his own path and Amar in Dil Se being very obsessive and crosses the lines of consent time and again.
A Twitter user has summed up the entire plot of SRK's biggest films-Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Mohabbatein, Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, Om Shanti Om, Devdas, Dil Se, Zero, Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna and Jab Tak Hai Jaan.
