Riding high on the success of FAN, King Khan took over an app to celebrate it with his fans. The superstar interacted lIVE from Mannat with famestars Deepak Kalra, Shriya Pareek and Devangana. A live video social platform, #fame, gave his fans an opportunity to send in their queries. In a candid chat, Shsh Rukh opened up like never before.
Here are 10 of the many interesting, and unknown facts, that he shared in the conversation.
lShah Rukh is very forgetful as a person and has difficulty in remembering names and dates. During school days he used to study history by rote learning
lEven today he calls his son Aryan, ‘Karan’ sometimes and his daughter ‘Farah’. Suhana corrects him on it
lUnlike his character Aryan Khanna in the film, Shah Rukh Khan never stayed in hotel Delite. He had spent a couple of nights sleeping under the flyover at queen’s necklace during his struggling days.
lHis son, AbRam loved fan and the fact that he could see two two daddys! Abram also got scared watching the climax sequence.
lHe loves chhole bhature from Delhi and eats them only when he visits the city. He does not like the way it’s made in Bombay.
lShah Rukh’s Saturday was spent reading the reviews of Fan and he was glad that the critics unanimously praised his performance. He then watched the Kolkata Knight Riders match at a friend’s place and interacted with his fans.
lHe does not see his films after the first trial. The only two films that he has seen more than once are Kuch Kuch Hota Hai and Baazigar. He also showed these movies to Aryan and Suhana when they grew up.
lHe revealed that the study room (where he was beaming from) was his favourite place since it had no distractions and he sits there when he needs some peace. He gets his physiotherapy and costume trials done there. He sits on his desk when he wants to feel official with his padmashri behind him.
lHe spoke about his fans like Gaurav in real life. He said he had met fans like these. They were girls who had run away from home, wanting to meet him to become an actress. He used to immediately inform their parents and make them understand. He also said that parents should encourage their kids if they desire to become an actor.
lHe mentioned that an ideal fan should have their own identity. They should know that the stars appreciate them all the time
During the live session, Shah Rukh Khan also engaged in a fun Jabra dance session with the famestars. He also sang Yeh ladka hain deewana from Kuch Kuch Hota Hain and Gerua from his last film, Dilwale and engaged in a round of dialogue mash-up with famestar Devangana.
