Today marks the 60th birthday of Shah Rukh Khan, the Badshah of Bollywood, and his journey is being celebrated by fans worldwide. Major streaming services have selected his best films for those who want to celebrate his birthday at home, so this weekend is ideal for reliving his unparalleled cinematic legacy.
From DDLJ to Jawan, here’s your ultimate SRK watchlist
Movies that are streaming on Netflix
With Netflix’s recent partnership with Yash Raj Films, most of SRK's classics and recent hits have become available on the streaming site. From his high-octane action hits to the romances that defined an era, the lineup reads like a film festival in its own right.

Watch his charismatic return as a secret agent in Pathaan or you can watch Jawan, the 2023 blockbuster that featured him in a dual role with unparalleled charisma. For those who like romantic stories, there's Rajkumar Hirani's Dunki and SRK's Swades, in which he plays a NASA scientist who rediscovers his heritage. Kal Ho Naa Ho, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, and the timeless Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge are still beloved and never go out of style.
SRK's films on Prime Video
Relive the timeless romance of Devdas, Sanjay Leela Bhansali's sweeping adaptation of the tragic classic, or Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, the movie that transformed college romance. Darr and Don are still recognisable to fans of SRK's darker side. While Karan Arjun provides a dose of 90s action and brotherhood, Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi and Veer-Zaara bring out his softer, more sentimental side.

Together, Netflix and Prime Video offer their audience the whole range of his cinematic magic, including moments that became embedded in Indian culture, roles that reshaped heroism, and love stories that made hearts skip a beat.“Picture abhi baaki hai mere dost,” as SRK famously said in Om Shanti Om. Sixty, it seems, is just another beginning for the man who taught a nation how to love.
