A King’s Pride: On National Awards and Family
The session kicked off with a heartfelt question from a fan, Kanatunga, who asked Shah Rukh Khan how he felt after winning the national award. The actor’s response was nothing short of humble and gracious. He stated, “YAY!!!!! I feel like the King of the Nation!!! Too much honour and too much responsibility to try and excel and work harder!!” This response beautifully encapsulates his dedication to his craft and his immense gratitude towards his fans. Another fan, from the account SRK MEALS, congratulated him on the award, to which SRK replied with a simple yet powerful, “That’s very kind of you all. Thank you!!!”
The conversation soon turned to family, and the pride in Shah Rukh Khan’s words was palpable. A fan asked about Aryan Khan’s new show, and SRK responded, “So many people asking so have to tell Netflix….Beta show bana raha hai, Baap sirf wait kar raha hai…@NetflixIndia Tum Kya Kar Rahe Ho??” (So many people are asking, so I have to tell Netflix…Son is making the show, and the father is just waiting… @NetflixIndia what are you guys doing??). This response was a playful jab at Netflix India, and also a clear show of support for his son’s debut as a director. It’s evident that he is immensely proud of Aryan’s new venture and is eagerly awaiting its release.
A Different Side of Shah Rukh Khan
Beyond the professional updates, the #AskSRK session provided a glimpse into Shah Rukh Khan’s personal life and his current state of mind. A fan, Gajendra Yadav, asked about his favorite shows or movies this year. SRK’s response, “Seen a bit of Bads of Bollywood. That was very endearing and funny,” was a rare moment of him sharing his viewing habits. He also gave a humorous shout-out to director and friend, saying, “Give him love as a Director in Bads of Bollywood when u watch it. Abhi ghar mein competition nahi chahiye….” (Give him love as a Director in Ba***ds of Bollywood when you watch it. I don’t need competition at home right now…).
When asked about his physical well-being, specifically his shoulder injury, by a fan named Ankit, he responded with his characteristic wit: “Bearing the weight of stardom quite effectively….ha ha. It’s healing my friend thank u so much for asking.” This lighthearted response demonstrates his ability to find humor in challenging situations. He also provided a clear update on his recovery, mentioning his physio, reading, and rehearsing lines. A fan asked about his favorite pastime, and he answered, “Nowadays…just physio…a bit of reading….and rehearsing lines for King….and sleeping a lot.” This shows a man focused on recovery and preparation for his next big project.
Reflections on Life and Work
The session was filled with introspective moments as well. When asked about his thoughts on the “Bads of Bollywood” series, SRK offered a thoughtful and honest review: “It’s very good. You all see and decide..but it’s very entertaining….and wacky and emotional. Honest Review!” Another fan, Sunil, pointed out that his wife, Gauri Khan, is producing the series and that his son, Aryan Khan, is directing. SRK responded, “Really man….and you haven’t seen AbRam in action yet. Just keeping up with my lovely family is hard! But I am sure @gaurikhan is proudest of Bds of Bollywood the most as a producer.” This heartwarming exchange showcases his unwavering support for his family’s creative endeavors.
A more philosophical question from SantoshP asked what hurts more, a gym injury or reading trolls on Twitter. SRK’s response was profound: “Dumbells and Action can break my bones…but words can never hurt me!! I am too busy listening to the music in my heart man.” This response not only shows his mental fortitude but also provides a powerful message about focusing on inner peace and happiness. His wisdom and positive outlook are truly inspiring for his millions of fans.
Looking to the Future with a King
The #AskSRK session left fans with a sense of excitement for what’s to come. With updates on his recovery and hints about his upcoming projects, Shah Rukh Khan has once again proven his connection with his audience. The actor also playfully commented on a fan’s question about placing a yacht helipad on Mannat, his residence, replying with, “It’s a good idea but private yacht helipad pe Mannat par rakhu toh zyaada acchha lagega…nahi??”. (It’s a good idea, but it would look better if I put a private yacht on top of Mannat, right??). This comment, and his overall tone, remind us that despite his global stardom, he remains a relatable and charming personality.
The final messages of the session were a testament to his love for his fans. SRK concluded by saying, “Ok boys and girls now need to leave for physio and some nazar utaarna!!! Love u all for keeping me entertained with the questions now till next time…love you all and thanx. Enjoy the rain.” His genuine appreciation for their engagement and his humble goodbye left a lasting impression on everyone.
