Throughout the lengthy runtime of his show, My Next Guest, David Letterman seemed a little off in his interview with Shah Rukh Khan. While both the charismatic actor as well as the reputed talk show host were in their glory just like always, Shahrukh was simply incomprehensible to the American crowd.
Pointing at his humongous fan following and his countless successful films, David Letterman's idea of Shahrukh came from a largely numbered data. Leaving the fans hoping for more. Much more. If only Letterman would have researched Shahrukh's films and talked about his acting more than his thoughts about the American president would the interview be more interesting.
But it is truly not David Letterman's fault that the interview turned out the way it did. Instead, it is in the inability of the American masses to understand foreign celebrities that the interview failed too. On the other hand, Shahrukh was well versed when he talked about Michael B. Jordan and his inspiration on his acting skills or even on the president of America.
The episode of the way it is one that will leave a smile on Shahrukh's fan's faces but probably skipped by the usual David Letterman viewers.
