Vivek Oberoi Predicts Shah Rukh Khan’s Legacy in 2050
Vivek Oberoi recently shared his thoughts on Shah Rukh Khan’s legacy, predicting that he may fade from public memory by 2050. Oberoi drew parallels with past cinema legends to highlight the ephemeral nature of fame.
Vivek Oberoi’s Perspective on Shah Rukh Khan’s Legacy
In an interview with Pinkvilla, Oberoi remarked that if current trends continue, future generations might not recognize influential figures from the past. He suggested that even revered stars like Raj Kapoor could be forgotten, noting, “In 2050, people might ask, ‘Who is Shah Rukh Khan?’”
