Shah Rukh Khan skewers troll on X
A troll tagged Shah Rukh and commented in Hindi, “भाई ये बता तुम में कोई टैलेंट नहीं. ना तेरी सकल बढ़िया है फिर तू स्टार कैसे बन गया। तुझसे बढ़िया तो मेरी सकल मुझे कोई पहचानता तक नहीं। (Brother, tell me you have no talent. Your looks aren’t great, so how did you become a star? My looks are so much better than yours that no one even recognises me.)”
Shah Rukh also responded to him in Hindi, writing, “भाई शकल तो ठीक है …अक़्ल का नहीं बोला तुमने!!! वो है या….??? (Brother, the looks are fine… you didn’t talk about the brain!!! Do you have it or…???)” Fans thought the Bollywood star’s reply was hilarious, praising him for handling it so well.
One fan joked, “Akal to 10 rupe me bechdi he sir usne. (He sold his brain for ₹10.)” Another wrote, “Ye badia reply tha. (What a reply).” Some fans also praised him, assuring him they loved how he looks, with one of them writing, “Yours is the most beautiful face in the world after my mom’s. Face card that never declines.”
Break in 2024 and upcoming work
Shah Rukh was last seen in the 2023 films Pathaan and Jawan. He took a break from films in 2024, only appearing in a cameo in his son Aryan Khan’s debut directorial, the Netflix web series, The Ba***ds of Bollywood. He is now shooting for a Siddharth Anand film alongside his daughter, Suhana Khan, and Abhishek Bachchan. The film is expected to be released next year.
