Shahrukh Khan which literally translates into ‘King like Face’. Shahrukh even feels lucky that his name was changed by his father, as Abdul Rehman would have never suited a film star.
- Shah Rukh’s ever charming wit and humour personality all are attributed by his father’s witty and charming persona. His father used to say, “Beta, kuch kaam karna, aur naa mann ho to mat karna, kyunki jo kuch nain karte wo kamaal karte hain!” This statement became the part of Shah Rukh’s life and he learnt the best out of it.
