6 signs that prove you are as cool and romantic as Shah Rukh Khan’s Rahul from Kuch Kuch Hota Hai

As a lifestyle expert who has lived through the ’90s Bollywood era, I must say that Shah Rukh Khan’s portrayal of Rahul Khanna in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai was nothing short of iconic. The character, with his polo t-shirts, cool pendant, and heartthrob status, resonated deeply with the audience of the time.


Shah Rukh Khan’s portrayal of Rahul Khanna in “Kuch Kuch Hota Hai” continues to resonate with moviegoers even today. The movie, directed by Karan Johar, also featured Kajol and Rani Mukerji, adding depth to the character of Rahul. Despite the film’s relatable aspects, it was Rahul’s unique qualities that endeared him to audiences.

1. You’re a chick magnet

Sporting a polo shirt and a stylish pendant around his neck, Shah Rukh Khan embodied the epitome of heartthrobs during the premiere of Kuch Kuch Hota Hai. Unaware of it, he attracted an abundance of female admiration in his college days. It seems his closest friend, or perhaps secret admirer, Kajol’s character Anjali held the title of his most ardent fan.

2. You’re truly the best ‘friend’ one can ask for

Deep within, despite his attempts to come off as composed, Rahul was incredibly emotional and deeply cared for those dear to him. Recall the instance when Anjali faced mockery for mimicking Rani Mukerji’s character Tina’s style? It was Rahul who quickly supported her and said, “You are beautiful because you’re unique.”

3. You’re grounded

The persona of Rahul makes it unbelievable, but yes he was truly grounded. He was somebody who also liked to keep his spiritual beliefs low-key. Nevertheless, he also believed in “Ek mard ka sar sirf teen aurton ke saamne jhukta hai, Maa ke samne, Durga Maa ke saamne, aur…” Can there be any better proposal line than this? 

4. You are too competitive

Are you overly driven by competition? Does your strong desire to win extend to the point where you might bend or break the rules? Did it sound like Anjali was jokingly accusing Rahul of cheating, saying something like “Rahul acts like a cheater, he’s always cheating”?

5. You’re romantic to the core

Absolutely, Rahul had a deep-rooted romantic nature. From his charming flirting techniques like “squeeze me,” to his memorable proposal to Tina; he was truly one of a kind. Lowering all inhibitions, many years later when he encounters Anjali during the summer camp, their passionate dance in the rain is incredibly romantic and difficult to witness without becoming emotional.

6. You’re the coolest daddy

Having a dad as awesome as Rahul is hard to come by. He adored his daughter, Anjali, deeply from his very core. The straightforward upbringing and values he instilled in her are unforgettable. We can’t forget that he sacrifices everything to be with her during the summer camp.

Of course! Alright, what traits of Rahul do you find familiar? We’d love for you to share your thoughts in the comment area below.
