Shah Rukh Khan surprised fans on X (formerly Twitter) with an unplanned #AskSRK session, marking his first interactive moment on the platform in several months. The actor, still recovering from an injury sustained during the shooting of King, chose the occasion to answer questions spanning his recent National Award win, upcoming projects, and even his health routine. Fans quickly flocked to the session, enjoying the candid and humorous exchanges.
Opening the session, Shah Rukh noted the calm, rainy day and expressed a desire to spend the next half hour engaging with followers. He requested that questions remain fun and light, considering his ongoing physiotherapy and recovery.
One fan playfully suggested that the actor consider retirement, hinting that it might be time for younger actors to take the limelight. Responding in his signature witty style, Shah Rukh remarked that such “childish questions” should wait until the fan matured and jokingly advised them to stay in temporary retirement themselves. The humorous comeback quickly went viral, drawing applause and laughter across social media.

The session also provided insight into Shah Rukh’s feelings about his recent accolades. When asked about winning the National Award for Jawan, he shared immense pride and described the honor as both exciting and a motivating responsibility to keep delivering his best work. He noted that he shared the award with Vikrant Massey, recognized for 12th Fail, highlighting the camaraderie within the industry.
In his personal life, Shah Rukh revealed that he spends time on physiotherapy, reading, rehearsing lines for King, and catching up on much-needed rest. Reports earlier in June had mentioned the injury he sustained during an intense sequence of the film, making his dedication to recovery an inspiration for fans.
King, directed by Siddharth Anand, is shaping up to be a major cinematic event. Shah Rukh will star alongside his daughter Suhana Khan and actor Saurabh Shukla. Rumors also hint at appearances by Deepika Padukone, Rani Mukerji, Abhishek Bachchan, Jackie Shroff, Anil Kapoor, and Raghav Juyal, although official announcements and the release date remain pending.
Shah Rukh’s candid AMA highlighted his humor, humility, and unwavering connection with fans. Even while recovering from an injury, he managed to entertain and inform, leaving audiences eagerly anticipating both his film projects and future interactions online.
