Shah Rukh Khan is famously known as the King of Romance, and he is called King Khan. But there was a time in his career when he was mocked for his physical appearance.

In an old interview, one of his co-stars, who later became his best friend and business partner, mocked him for his long hair, and lean body, and even joked about him.

In 1992, Shah Rukh Khan did Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman, and he was paired with Juhi Chawla. The actress who had considered as next big star after Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak wasn't keen to sign Aziz Mirza's film, and the reason was Shah Rukh Khan.

While speaking to Lehren, Juhi narrated how Vivek Vaswani (co-producer of the film) convinced Juhi to sign the film and told her that Shah Rukh Khan looks like Aamir Khan.

Juhi recalled her first day on the sets and said, "I went on the sets of Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman, and waha maine Shah Rukh ko dekha. Aur maine kya dekha, ek dubla, patla ladka, unke baal lambe-lambe the, ankhon tak aa rahe the, aur maine kaha 'yeh hero hai aur yeh Aamir Khan ki tarah dikhta hai'." As Juhi got to know SRK, she found him nice, professional, and the funniest person on sets.
