The most daring thing I can do is hug five people at once: Shah Rukh Khan

Shah Rukh Khan is known to be extremely witty. Here are four answers during the live interaction with his fans in the city that prove just that.

Did you face any problem because of demonetisation?
I endorse so many products that I get everything for free. Right from noodles to a car to cola and vests, I get all the essentials.

Your character in Raees is very daring. How daring are you in real life?
Filmon mai hi daring cheez karta hun, real life mai kaddu sa hu. The most daring thing I can do is hug five people at once. I am a romantic hero.

How did you look so good in the movie?
It took a lot of plastic surgery. Also, not just girls, I am good with applying kajal too.

What is that one message people can take back from Raees?
No job is too small. I clean my own room and sometimes cook for my children. There is dignity of labour. I get up and get myself a glass of water. I try to do as much work as I can on my own.

When a guy announced that his surname, too, is Khan, he asked him to be careful at the airport. The interaction, which lasted for about an hour, left the audience asking for more.

Fans from Hyderabad patiently waited to talk to Shah Rukh Khan and also to get an exclusive look of the Raees trailer before it was released to the rest of the world. Shah Rukh, who “promised” to arrive at 11, was late for the interaction but fans didn’t complain. He answered questions ranging from the movie to his personal life. As soon as SRK appeared on screen, fans went berserk and started cheering for him.

Talking about Hyderabad, Shah Rukh said that he loves the city since his mother was brought up here and promised to visit this month.

During the interaction, he also talked about a locket he sports, saying, “This locket is close to my heart and I wear it in this movie. It has a photo of my mom and dad from their wedding day and was gifted to me on my birthday.”

Various fan clubs of Shah Rukh from the city, including ‘SRK Hyd fans’ also made their presence felt. One of the fans, Karthik Kumar, said that he had been waiting for the moment since Shah Rukh announced that he will be live on screen and arrived hours early for the interaction. Another fan, Srinidhi, called it a “dream come true” moment.
