What can he possibly do, his handsomeness keeps growing just like his hair, Shah Rukh Khan said on Tuesday, tongue firmly in cheek, during an impromptu #AskSRK session that saw fans ask him everything from serious questions to downright absurd ones.
The superstar also used the occasion to extend Ganesh Chaturthi greetings to his fans and asked them to pray for the success of his upcoming film "King", which is set to release on December 24.
Shah Rukh Khan kicks off #AskSRK session
"Happy Ganpati to all the boys & girls. Festivities & happiness around and may Bappa bring more of it in your lives. To add to happiness it's always better to share it with friends. So a bit of sharing and laughs let's do an #AskSRK for a while if you all have the time. Love u (sic)," Shah Rukh posted on X as he began the interaction.
The superstar, who has more than 40 million followers on the platform, regularly uses X to connect with fans and answer questions on a wide range of topics.
This time, fans sought his advice on relationships, asked about his review of "Dhurandhar" and even wanted to know what he does when he is alone.
From relationship advice to his secret ‘scent’
A newly married fan asked Shah Rukh for tips on being a "green flag" in a relationship.
"Ek doosre ke rang mein rang jao... make adjustments so both of you make the partner happier."
To a college student worried about not having a girlfriend, he replied: "Don't worry before final year ends you will find the girl u will love. Guess till then study hard so u have free time when you find her finally!!"
Asked what he does when the lights are switched off and he is alone, Shah Rukh reflected on the love he has received throughout his career.
"Honestly God has been so kind...the lights never switch off neither do the crowds go....so I think the dream is to be amidst it all and be happy."
When asked about his looks, the actor joked, "Kya karun. Keep trying but the handsomeness just keeps growing and growing. Like my hair..."
A fan curious about his perfume received an equally cheeky response, "Bhai meri toh scent of success hi hai na!!!"
Shah Rukh talks ‘King’ and ‘Dhurandhar’
Fans also wanted updates about "King", directed by Siddharth Anand. Shah Rukh said the director was busy making a great movie and that the team was working hard ahead of its release.
Asked about "Dhurandhar", the Aditya Dhar-directed two-part spy drama starring Ranveer Singh, Shah Rukh said, "Loved both the parts....fantastic by the whole team!!!"
The actor also revealed that he is currently reading "Mistborn: The Hero of Ages", Brandon Sanderson's 2008 epic fantasy novel.
Asked which useless skill he would like to master, Shah Rukh replied with one word—fidgets.
SRK jokes about Mannat gallery
The session ended with another playful exchange about his Bandra home, Mannat. A fan jokingly asked him to sell the property if he did not appear in the gallery this time.
"Ab new gallery bana rah hoon na so aur bhi chumkunga...on the new gallery. Also hopefully will have some handle to hold onto!!"
