On Friday, Shah Rukh Khan was in Sharjah to attend the 2022 Sharjah International Book Fair (SIBF). He was awarded the Global Cultural Narrative and Film Icon Award for his contributions as an international film and cultural icon. During the event, he also gave interviews about his work, life and family.
The interviewer also asked the actor about his late parents. An Interviewer asks what he thinks of the love he has received from the public and the empire he has built for himself. Shah Rukh gave a simple answer.
“I thought my mother would say: “Tum bahut patle ho gaye ho, thoda sa weight put Kar lo. Kaisa tumhara muh ho gaya hai andar-andar, tumhara kalla andar chala gayea hai(You became so thin, put on some weight. your face is twisted, your cheeks are gone. Eat a little more,” he said with a laugh.
“But I think my mom and dad will be very proud of my only achievement. If it can be called an achievement, I think it’s something we should do and it’s something we should live with,” he added. … I think they would be proud of the way we raised three children. I think they will be very happy.”
Shah Rukh is married to Gauri Khan and they have three children. He has an elder son, Aryan Khan, an only daughter, Suhana Khan, and a younger son, Abram.
Aryan was arrested by Mumbai police last year in a drug trafficking case but was later released due to lack of evidence against him. Since then, he has represented Shah Rukh and his IPL team Kolkata Knight Riders at various events. Suhana will soon make her debut in Archies of Zoya Akhtar.
