During a recent interview, Shah Rukh Khan answered the most googled questions about him on the internet. SRK, as we all would expect, answered the questions wittingly and honestly too. Isn't that why we love him 😍
Here are the questions and his answers; (Number 4 is my favorite 🤗 You will be getting a lot of calls SRK, be ready to invent a lot of emojis ☺️)
1. Does Shah Rukh Khan have a tattoo?
I don't but I have it in my film Jab Harry Met Sejal - A big one right across my right shoulder and chest. But no, I don't have one. I am scared of tattoos.
2. Does Shah Rukh Khan have a private jet?
Not as yet, but I am working on it. I am just waiting for that one 1,000 crore film to come my way. As soon as I get it, the first thing I buy will be a private jet.
3. What is Shah Rukh Khan doing now?
Ripping off this white thing which is just sticking to my fingers and my pants. Right now I am sitting on Rajeev Masand's show and answering the most searched questions about me. I have an extremely boring life when I am not shooting.
4. What is Shah Rukh Khan's phone number?
It is 5559960321. Call anytime. If I am not around leave a message and I will answer you back with an emoji.
5. What is Shah Rukh Khan's real name?
This is it. There is no other screen name. I have said it before, my grandmother wanted to name me Abdul Rahman but my father persisted and I'm Shah Rukh Khan. I have been called a lot of names on the internet but I'm not going there.
6. Is Shah Rukh Khan world's richest actor?
The second, last one I heard, without a private jet and a tattoo. I wish I was. I am quite a capitalist material kind of guy. I like good things in life but no, I don't think I am the richest actor in the world.
7. Why Shah Rukh Khan is so famous?
Could be good looks, sexy, handsome, tall, charming, speaks so well, I mean I've got it all. It could be ironic if I wasn't so famous really.
8. How did Shah Rukh Khan meet Gauri?
I saw her at a party. One of those school parties where the boys sat on one side and the girls on the other side and then you go and dance when your song plays. She was dancing and my friend asked her if she would dance with his friend and she agreed (I'm too shy of girls, I've never asked a girl anything).
9. How did Shah Rukh Khan buy Mannat?
Lot of pain; lots and lots of pain; borrowing money; doing lots of ads; lots of shows. But its nice to have bought it; to have a roof over my head, not to worry for my children's future. It took me 5-6 years of taking advances from people and working for them at a much lower rate to buy myself this house.
10. Can Shah Rukh Khan sing?
Yes I can. But I am saving it for my old age when all my talent is completely exposed. Then I want to do a song, I'll do it bare bodied; when I am completely desperate, I'll do a dancing in the rain version without my clothes on... I wish I could sing, if I could sing and play the guitar, I would retire which makes me hear people scream 'teach him now, teach him now' but I wish I could sing. I sing very badly!

Yes, it's happening and it is not a dream! We will finally see our favorite jodi take the nuptial vow.
Abhi and Pragya, who were recently rescued and given shelter by an old man (whom we think is Pragya's father and the beginning of #KundaliBhagya), will be getting married in the jungle and we cannot contain our excitement.
The dream of billions of fans will finally come true next week... Pictures of the promo shoot have been making rounds on social media for a while now and we have all been anxiously waiting for the video and here we are...
The voice-over in the video: 'A relationship which had to be realised. The moment which was awaited by everyone; sacred bond of Abhi Pragya... Abhi will hold Pragya's hand (to marry her) on 23rd June' - video & translation is courtesy of @tsvidzz on IG. Thanks hun! 😍
Finally, the name of the much awaited ShahRukh Khan and Anushka Sharma starrer film is out after keeping us in suspense for months. Apparently, the titles that have been on the internet all this while as 'The Ring' and 'Rehnuma' are not to be...
The title and first posters of the film were revealed yesterday. Titled 'Jab Harry Met Sejal', the film is the first collaboration between SRK and Imtiaz Ali and is set to hit theatres on August 4.
In an interesting tweet, SRK, in his quirky self, might have informed us that Ranbir Kapoor suggested the name. He wrote; 'Just in case Ranbir Kapoor ever claims it…the title Jab Harry met Sejal was never ever suggested by him! So he doesn’t win the Rs.5000 reward' 😂
The father-son duo of Anil Kapoor (60) and Harshvardhan Kapoor (26) cover the June issue of GQ India magazine.
The men stole our hearts with the various shots giving us legit relationship goals...😍
Anil, who has refused to grow any older 😘, said in the interview that he wants Harshvardhan to loosen up, meet people and be more social while Harsh reveals that he does not take relationship advice from his dad.
We have added a plus - a throwback picture of father and son... You're welcome! 🤗
Zee TV is set to launch a spin-off of KumKum Bhagya, my favorite show which revolves around Abhi and Pragya. Their chemistry has made KKB one of the most loved shows of the channel; even after three years of its run-time, it still enjoys an amazing viewership.
It looks like the writers have realised that they have explored all possible story angles as far as AbhiGya's love story is concerned and have decided to infuse a spin-off to bring freshness into the story. Asides from that, people are sick of seeing Pragya's endless kidnap, Tanu and Aliya's constant malicious plans against her, and Abhi's daftness - I mean that in a good way 😁, plus the all around senselessness of this season (good case in point - the whole town's amnesia along with Abhi's as regards Pragya being his wife 😒)
The spin-off will be called Kundali Bhagya and will go on air next month. It will focus on Pragya’s family, especially her father, and will run parallely with the main show; I am not sure how they plan to do that 🤔
What I do know is that, the TRPs might drop if there isn't a lot of AbhiGya romance - some of us only want to see those 😊
For what it is worth, it has been a great ride. We have seen how hatred in an arranged marriage turned into love; a LOT of sacrifices on Pragya's part for the sake of Abhi and his dadi; a TON of plotting and scheming - both good and bad; ridiculous love scenarios (good case in point - AbhiGya's romance during the fire incident 🤦); but most importantly, the jodi of Abhi and Pragya 😍
