SRK doesn’t know how to describe himself

In a 30 second or a one-minute byte, I am asked ‘Can you describe Shah Rukh Khan in one word as a person?’ This is something I don’t know at all SHAH RUKH KHAN, ACTOR

Actor Shah Rukh Khan aka SRK (above) says he’s always at a loss for words, when asked a certain set of questions. “When in a 30 second or a one-minute byte, I am asked ‘Can you describe Shah Rukh Khan in one word as a person?' This is something I don't know at all. How do I describe anyone, let alone me, in one word and that also in a one-minute interview? It has taken me 52 years to understand about 10 per cent of who I am, let alone try to express it to people within a minute,” says SRK. Another question he doesn’t have an answer to is, when he last played a practical joke on set. “Well, my age for practical jokes is over and not many people come on the set to do practical jokes. We just have a good time and laugh. I am not saying it's a bad question, it's just that I don't have an answer to it,” he says.

One question which never fails to leave him stumped is, What's next? “Well, this is next, this is what I am doing right now. What's next will come next and at that time I will come and talk to you about it. This kind of throws me off. Because I normally do one film at a time and this is the most important thing right now, so I will talk about this. What's next, I will discuss in detail when it happens,” he added.
