Dressed in a crisp white shirt and a chic black suit with neatly cropped hair, the 43-year-old actor spread cheer among the 200-plus crowd, including many kids, at the Emporio Mall in Delhi where he played the brand ambassador for Swiss watch brand Tag Heuer on Wednesday.
From his famous cold war with Aamir Khan to his love for dear wife Gauri and his political plans... SRK was at his wittiest best as he went around answering the many questions hurled at him. We give you a dope on all that happened at the event.
Shah Rukh Khan at a recent event laughed off the so-called spat with Aamir Khan as a joke but added that his rival at times did say things to his dislike. "I don't pick on Aamir. You guys (the media) make a big thing out of it. It's a joke, so we carry on with it. It's no big deal."
King Khan cleared all rumours about the 'cold war' between the two Khans of the Hindi film industry, but said he would have a talk with the "Ghajini" star. "Sometimes he (Aamir) says something or somebody else says something that I don't like and I am very serious about it. So I'll personally talk to him about it," said Shah Rukh.
'I've gifted my entire life to my wife'
"I have gifted my entire life to Gauri," Shah Rukh told reporters when asked whether his forthcoming film "Billu Barber", releasing Feb 13, was a Valentine's Day gift for his wife.
"She produces all my movies and only if the film does well, she accepts any gifts. If my movie flops, then she does not accept any gift. I feel 'Billu Barber' is a beautiful film about relationships, love and friendship. I also have a good part in the film along with Irrfan Khan and Lara Dutta. If the film works well, my wife will accept a gift otherwise she will throw me out of the house," he quipped.
SRK wants to do a Baazigar 2
When a young journalist asked Shah Rukh's opinion on Shilpa Shetty's entry into the Indian Premier League (IPL) that was announced on Monday, the superstar quipped that she resembled Shilpa's younger sister Shamita and that he would love to do a "Baazigar 2" with her.
'I'll join politics when I'm 127'
He may have loads of mass appeal, but Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan ruled out the option of joining politics ...at least until he turns 127 years old.
"I might join politics at the age of 127 - when probably you guys are old and I am still young," Shah Rukh quipped at a recent press conference.
'I just can't hug you hard enough'
That's what SRK replied when asked about his shoulder problem. "I will be well. I'm going for surgery in the next few days. I was just hoping to delay it because of a few close commitments like this event and also for promoting my film 'Billu Barber'. As soon as that is released, I will enroll myself into a hospital and get my injury repaired."
Shah Rukh said he is upset about his injury as he cannot move as much as he would otherwise like to. "I am feeling a little sad because for the next six months I won't be able to play football or do any exercise. I used to lift weights but with this injury I can't do anything of that sort," he said.
