New Delhi:
Shah Rukh Khan sported a salt n’ pepper look at his recent birthday event, organised by fanclubs in Bandra. At the event, he revealed he chopped off his hair for Sujoy Ghosh’s King. At the event, Shah Rukh Khan said, “Ab mere baal lambe nahi hain… maine kaat diye hain King ke liye. (Now my hair is no longer long… I have cut it for King),” as quoted by News 18. Shah Rukh Khan confirmed he would be doing King in a conversation with Giona A. Nazzaro, the Artistic Director of the Locarno Film Festival. Shah Rukh Khan also shared a story about how he chose King. He said, “I finished Jawan and Dunki last year. Now, there’s a certain kind of film I want to do. Maybe its more age centric and its something I have been trying for over 7 years. One day, I mentioned it to Sujoy Ghosh in my office. He said, ‘sir, I have a subject.'”
At the fan-event, Shah Rukh Khan also fielded an Ask SRK session. When a fan asked him about the lesson he has learnt from his children, Shah Rukh Khan, in his trademark witty style, shared anecdotes from his birthday morning. “I woke up late today because there was a dinner last night. So I woke up and went to spend some time with my little one… he was having his own issues. His I-Pad was not working. Then after that my daughter had a problem. She had some outfits which were not looking okay. The fitting was all wrong. Then my elder son…” Needless to say, Shah Rukh Khan’s minute details set the mood of the event and impressed the audience as always.
Shah Rukh Khan continued, “So, I learn from my family. Jitne bachche hote hein, utna patience aadmi mein badta hain (The more kids you have, the more patient you become)! So this is the learning I carry from my home to my work. Which is a lot of patience, lot of love, lot of care. Kisi ki koi bhi chiz naa chal rahi ho toh main usko theek karta hoon. Shooting pe, kaam pe, office pe (Whoever needs to fix things, I am there for them. At work, home or office). I think patience is the one thing that I have learnt from my family.”
Shah Rukh Khan has had a stellar comeback last year. He delivered box office hits like Pathaan and Jawan. Dunki received a lukewarm response from the audience.
