. Actor Shah Rukh Khan on his career, his sexuality and his supposed fall-out with the Yash Chopra camp.

Actor Shah Rukh Khan does everything with panache. But the recent ad campaign for a beauty soap, which always used Bollywood heroines as models, has also led to a fresh round of rumours. And SRK is aware of the buzz that says that through this move he is epitomising 'the gay man's fantasy.'

Ask him this and he says, "I found it very strange. For me, when I signed the campaign there was no analysis attached in terms of sexuality.

I think it's an over-simplification of things, because I usually don't do anything overtly macho, so people think I am effeminate, which is OK by me."

He further adds, "I cannot sit down and rectify people's perceptions. Unlike earlier, when I used to get affected by such comments, today I don't react."

On why he did an ad that's been a woman's domain for years, SRK replies, "I don't agree soaps are the domain of women alone, and in my house, I don't have a special soap,"he grins.
