Shah Rukh Khan in a dual role. A fictionalized version of himself as a Bollywood superstar. And him as a fan who looks like a younger version of himself who first idolizes him but then gets disappointed after the superstar refuses to meet him and he plots a revenge. He tries to ruin the superstar's reputation by using his looks to impersonate him.
SRK did a great job in both parts. They used a mixture of make-up effect and VFX to make look SRK like his younger self like he looked in his 90s movies.

Plot:
Arnold Schwarzenegger stars in this action-packed adventure story of fighting men pitted against an unseen enemy, a force more powerful than their fiercest weapons. Recruited by the CIA to rescue hostages held by the guerrilla fighters in a Central American country, Schwarzenegger and his men encounter an enemy unimaginably more deadly than any on Earth - because the Predator is not of this Earth. Packed with spectacular effects and combat scenes of gut-wrenching power, PREDATOR is the most terrifying Schwarzenegger movie yet.


The first time I have seen this movie (at least as far as I remember). Nothing special. Wouldn't have missed something if I wouldn't have watched it.
