Scary twist seen in Shahrukh Khan’s ‘Baazigar’, you will be shocked to know the real secret

New Delhi. Shah Rukh Khan, known as the King of Romance, has played many memorable characters in his career, but his negative role in the film (Baazigar) still gives goosebumps to the fans. This film was not only a superhit, but it also completely changed Shahrukh’s image.

Was the pushing scene from the roof a copy?

The most talked about and shocking scene of the film, when Shahrukh’s character pushes Shilpa Shetty’s character down from the roof, is actually said to be inspired by the Hollywood film A Kiss Before Dying. This Hollywood film was released in 1991, while Baazigar was released in 1993. A lot of similarity has been seen in this scene of both the films, which made it even more popular.

What was the story of ‘Baazigar’

The story of Baazigar revolves around a man burning with revenge. To vent his enmity, he traps two sisters of the same family in his love. During this, his real intentions come to light, which fills the film with thrill and suspense.

Shahrukh was not the first choice

Interestingly, Shahrukh Khan was not the first choice for this film. The makers had earlier approached Anil Kapoor, but he refused to do this risky character. After this we also talked to Salman Khan, but he was busy with other projects. Finally when the story was narrated to Shahrukh, he immediately said yes.

Shahrukh agreed as soon as he heard the story

According to the director, when the story was narrated to Shahrukh, he was so impressed that he immediately got up and hugged him and agreed to do the film. This decision proved to be the turning point of his career.

This film is still memorable today

Baazigar is still counted among the most memorable films of Bollywood. Its dialogues, songs and especially Shahrukh’s negative character are still alive in the hearts of the audience.

Shahrukh Khan on work front

Shah Rukh Khan was last seen in Dunki. Earlier in 2023, his blockbuster films like Jawan and Pathaan were released. Now he will soon be seen in the film King, in which Suhana Khan, Deepika Padukone and Abhishek Bachchan will be in important roles. Siddharth Anand is directing this film.




  • This scene from ‘Baazigar’ may have been inspired by Hollywood, but Shahrukh Khan’s strong acting made it iconic in Indian cinema. This is the reason why this film is still alive in people’s minds.
