From being titled the King of Romance to acting in action sequences in his movies like a boss, Shah Rukh Khan has delivered diverse roles in his extensive acting career.

Hollywood star Tom Hiddleston, who is famous for playing the mischievous character Loki in the MCU, also thinks that one Bollywood actor who can do justice to his role is SRK.
In a recent interview with Bollywood Hungama, Tom was asked which actor from the Hindi film industry he thinks can play the part of Loki. Before responding to it, the international actor asked the host who had the mischief, the charm, and the emotional vulnerability. The host revisited the time when Tom expressed his love for the film Devdas and SRK’s role in it. This is when Tom promptly said, “I was about to say Shah Rukh Khan. He would be great. He’s a good variant, I think.”
During the same chat, Tom was asked if Loki would come to an Indian city and where would he come to. Answering the question, he said, “I’m going to inflect my bias into this.” He added, “Chennai I love. Chennai, I have a history with, but I have never been to Delhi. I would love to.’ ‘I have never been to Mumbai,” he divulged adding that India is still an undiscovered country for him and he would love to see the country.

So, yeah, I remember that very much.”
