Shah Rukh Khan is riding high on the success of his latest actioner Jawan. The Atlee-directed has collected more than Rs 600 crores worldwide, and it is en route to breaking SRK's last blockbuster, Pathaan. Recently, Shah Rukh Khan joined IMDb for a quick Q&A and gave some interesting answers, and trivia related to the film. 

Shah Rukh Khan was asked if he enjoys playing anti-heroes more than heroes in movies, and the actor replied tha he never wanted to be a hero. He found heroes boring. Shah Rukh said, "Just playing the good guy again and again and again and being nice. Puppy-eyed, doe-eyed is boring after sometimes. Personally, yes I like playing the bad guy. I love bad guys." Shah Rukh even lauded the support of his on-screen gang of girls (Priyamani, Sanya Malhotra, Lehar Khan, and Aaliyah Qureishi).

When asked about his reaction to his bald look in the movie, Shah Rukh Khan said that the look was never part of the script, it was a part of the getup that was part of the script. He further revealed that he chose a bald look out of laziness, as he didn't want to spend 2 hours in makeup. Shah Rukh Khan further said, "I had reservations because I have shown the promo to some friends and they told me that I looked scary, and girls won't like you. So, I hope girls like me, like bald men. I like bald girls."
