Shah Rukh Khan has never held back from admiring his kids, Aryan Khan, Suhana Khan, and AbRam. The actor whobembraced fatherhood with the birth of his first son, Aryan Khan, has often shared how kids make him happy as a person and he intends to have a friendly bond with them. On his elder son’s birthday, let’s revisit an old interview of King Khan, in which he shared his feelings after the birth of his first child.

In a candid interview with Dhanak TV USA, Shah Rukh Khan was asked after Aryan’s birth about his experience as a new father and what changes he felt.

In his response, the Jawan actor smiled and mentioned everyone asked him the same question, and he clearly stated that it felt the same to him. But, if he felt any difference in his life after becoming a father, he said, “I just have a newer friend, that’s all.”

The superstar began his career with TV shows until he debuted in Deewana in June 1992. Since then, he has starred in movies like Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, Daar, Baazigar, Karan Arjun, and other hits before 1997. Consequently, the actor was a shining star in the industry with a busy work front when he became a father. 

But, in the interview, when asked about how he manages work and takes time for his family, the actor mentioned he spends a lot of time with his family and kids, and he clearly said he manages time well.

The actor said, “I have loads of time with him. There is no problem on that count. I was just with them before I came here, and maybe on Monday, I will go and be with them again in New York. They are with me, but it’s a little hectic traveling around,” he said. 

Shahrukh Khan is married to Gauri Khan, and the couple welcomed Aryan on November 12, 1997. They have two more kids: daughter Suhana, born in 2000, and son AbRam, born in 2013.

Aryan Khan has appeared in cameo roles in Shah Rukh Khan’s films starting from Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. But, the young star has developed an inclination towards filmmaking in his adulthood and is making his debut series, Stardom.

As Pinkvilla informed earlier, the series is set against the backgroud of the film industry and span over six episodes. The show also stars Bobby Deol, Mona Singh, and others with reported cameos of SRK, Ranveer Singh, Ranbir Kapoor, and more.

Meanwhile, Shah Rukh Khan was last seen in Rajkumar Hirani’s Dunki co-starring Taapsee Pannu and will be next seen in Sujoy Ghosh’s King where he will share the screen space with his daughter Suhana Khan for the first time. 

Even though Shalini Passi is a popular name in the art space, she rose to fame after her stint in the reality TV show, Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives. In the third season of the web series, which was renamed Fabulous Lives vs Bollywood Wives, she gave the viewers a peek into her lavish life. But recently, the socialite also revealed that her mother would put chilli powder in her mouth if she ever uttered anything bad.

Shalini Passi was recently in a conversation with Deepak Pareek wherein she introduced herself and stated in Hindi “Main Dilli se hoon. (I am from Delhi.)” This is when the host adds a couple of suggestive words, so as the complete the common Delhi slang that is used by people to state they are from the national capital.

Unaware of what the host was implying, she expressed, “Mein Dilli se hu aur Dilli mere dil mein basti hai. What else do you want me to say? (I am from Delhi and my heart resides in the city. What else do you want me to say?)”

During their chat, she was asked if she ever abused anyone or used foul language for people around her, the popular Delhi wife stated that she is sensitive when it comes to picking habits. However, she stated that everyone has hurled abuses at some point in their lifetime, but she doesn’t.

Having said that, she went down memory lane, to her childhood, when her strict mother would put chilli powder in her mouth if she said anything bad. “Of course, we all have at some point in our life, but I don’t. My mother used to put chilli powder in my mouth if I said bad things,” Passi revealed.

While exclusively talking to Pinkvilla, Shalini also revealed that she hadn’t taken any medicines in the last 25 years. Sharing the reason behind it, the wife of businessman Sanjay Passi divulged, “I don’t take any medicines like no, I have not taken antibiotics since like last 25 years I would have 103 fever and not take anything because I want my body to heal itself and my want my immunity; I want the body to fight the infection.”

Aamir Khan and Kiran Rao remained husband and wife for nearly sixteen years before they finally announced their separation in 2021. While the couple is now divorced, they continue to remain friends and have been working together in several films. In a recent interview, Mr Perfectionist revealed that even though Rao gave him 11 points on how to be a better husband, she never asked him any advice on how to be a better wife.

Aamir Khan and Kiran Rao were in a conversation with The Hollywood Reporter India wherein they spoke about their great partnership when it comes to making films. This was when the host reminded Khan about the time when he told her that his ex-wife Rao gave him a list of things he should work on if he wanted to be a better husband.

Elaborating on the 11 points, the PK actor stated that one of them was that he doesn’t allow other people to talk. This is when he also mentioned that this is an exercise all wives should also do. “Isne mujhey kabhi nhi pucha ‘How to be a better wife?’ Pucho toh mai batata hu list. (She [pointing at Kiran Rao] never asked me ‘How to be a better wife?’ If she asks, I will share the list.)”

Khan further revealed that even though he didn’t agree with her, he wrote them down and still works on the points. In the same chat, the actor spoke about his upcoming film, Sitaare Zameen Par with Darsheel Safary and Genelia Deshmukh.

Sharing more about the sports drama, the actor-producer stated that it’s a beautiful story that is less emotional than its prequel, Taare Zameen Par. Calling it a ‘humorous film’ the Dhoom 3 actor shared that even though the themes of both films are similar, the emotional feel of the film is humor as opposed to emotions.

Sharing more about the movie, he stated, “In many ways, I feel it’s way ahead of Taare Zameen Par because in the film, the person who was with the challenge in the film, who was Ishaan, was helped by my character.”

Helmed by R. S. Prasanna and produced by Aamir Khan and Kiran Rao, Sitaare Zameen Par is scheduled for a theatrical release on December 25, 2024.
