Shah Rukh Khan can't swear on camera

Actor finds it an odd thing to do

Ever the gentleman, Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan claims he can't swear in front of the camera as he finds it an odd thing to do.

"I have problems swearing on screen. I can't even say Vishal Bhardwaj's movie names on screen. I find it odd. I have said the F-word before a scene just to get a feel because it was there but I had problems saying Dusht in Devdas," Shah Rukh said recently. He was speaking with film critic Anupama Chopra on her digital platform Film Companion.



Talking about the failure of Fan, Shah Rukh said, "I genuinely, honestly feel extremely sad that I let Maneesh Sharma down. I feel Maneesh Sharma deserved a better platform when he worked with me."

The actor will be back on the silver screen with Raees, which sees him play a bootlegger in a story set in Gujarat. The film, directed by National Award winning film-maker Rahul Dholakia, is slated to release on January 25.
