Unseen pictures of Shah Rukh Khan

Amar posted three pictures of a young Shah Rukh from 1990 before he headed to Bollywood and became a star. One picture shows him giving his trademark smile while looking into the camera. Another shows him clicking a picture with a Pentax Spotmatic camera. And the third shows him holding a little boy, Amar’s son, close.

Posting the pictures, Amar wrote, “Going through my old pics, came across these i'd clicked of Shahrukh Khan with my son, Tally, around 1990, before his departure for Bollywood.” He then revealed that he knew Shah Rukh because they acted in a few plays together before he left for Bollywood, “Shahrukh and i had acted in a couple of TAG (Barry John's Theatre Action Group) plays together - "Rough Crossing" and "Who's Life Is It Anyway" and then in a third play, "Lend Me A Tenor" Barry cast me in the role he wanted Shahrukh to play but by then Shahrukh had left for Mumbai, Bollywood...and the rest is history - i guess!”

For the unversed, Amar is famous for playing Raj ‘GJ’ Singh in the 1994 TV show Shanti with Mandira Bedi. He also played key roles in films like Bhoot and Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham.
