From helping fans out with their love life on social media to doling out profound life advice with the ease of a philosopher, Shah Rukh Khan is a man of many talents. It is no surprise that he is called King Khan as he rules millions of hearts of cinema lovers in India and across the world. A unique part of Shah Rukh Khan’s legacy is his tryst with love. Hailed as the king of romance, Shah Rukh Khan lent his characters a deep sense of dignity and empathy. And, now King Khan’s brand of love is unique to him – one that is giving, empowering and magical.

Here is a list of 10 such songs you need to add to your playlist.
1.Tujhe Dekha To Ye Jaana Sanam (Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge)
If there was one song that has become synonymous with Shah Rukh Khan it has to be this. With the ethereal Kajol by his side in the midst of a mustard field, Shah Rukh Khan made a generation fall in love.
2.Chaiyya Chaiyya (Dil Se)
A man singing about his mystery lover has never looked better than the time SRK grooved to this song atop a train.

3.Yeh Dil Deewana (Pardes)
On its release, Yeh Dil Deewana became an anthem for broken hearts and Shah Rukh Khan sincerity as a man at the doorstep of unattainable love has a lot to do with it.
