My stardom is too big for a film like Dear Zindagi, says Shah Rukh Khan

Shah Rukh Khan will next be seen in Dear Zindagi where he will essay the character of Alia Bhatt's life mentor.

The superstar has an extended cameo in the film and in an interview to Anupama Chopra for Film Companion, Khan revealed that he does not have the courage to do a full-fledged film like Dear Zindagi.

"People might say 'Shah Rukh Khan ne yeh role kyun kiya' when they watch Dear Zindagi, but I think it is very interesting role and a nicely made film. I can add to it by just learning things on sets, because I don't have the courage to do a full-fledged film like that because the stardom is too big or I have not been offered such a script or whatever reason be it.
