A reddit user also mentioned, “Srk has felt like the same character to me in most of his movies other than chak de and a couple others. I never decided if that’s simply because I’ve seen him so many times, or because he doesn’t try to change his way of expressions/talking from character to character (which still would work as enough people watch movies to see him rather than the story). I don’t doubt his skills because there are some great performances but it can just be hard to see him as a new, unique character each time like I’m able to with some other actors”,
