LOL..at your friend's comment

...
Yes, I do enjoy bollywood movies - after all, i've grown up on them ..what would we Indians do without our kitschy potboilers

...My favorite Indian movies, however, would be in the "off-beat" category.
Some more shah rukh movies (along with their informal English titles) that you might enjoy (all these were overseas hits):
- Kabhie khushi Kabhie gham (also starring Kajol)
- Kuch kuch hota hai ("Something is happening", also starring Kajol)
- Baazigar (also starring Kajol)
- Kal ho na ho ("Tomorrow May Never Come")
- Devdas
I didnt like any of these movies much. I personally liked "Paheli" a new movie.."Lagaan" is a nice movie too - no Shah rukh in it, it stars another Khan - Aamir khan.
Have fun !
