Debunking the ‘Lonely at the Top’ Myth
Shah Rukh addressed the common belief that being highly successful can feel lonely, especially at the top. However, he shared that his experience is quite the opposite, thanks to his children — Aryan, Suhana, and AbRam. He explained that as long as one can bring joy and laughter to their children or even to their parents, they will never truly feel alone.‘I Am a Joke in My Own House’
SRK further shared a light-hearted moment about how his children never take him seriously at home. He said that they find him so funny that even when he tries to be strict or lay down rules — like telling them to go to bed on time — they end up mocking him playfully, calling him “SRK” in a dramatic tone. He jokingly admitted that he’s become more of a joke than an authority figure in his own house. Deepika Padukone, who was also part of the conversation, laughed along and recalled how young she was during their first film Om Shanti Om, where Shah Rukh had once scolded her on set.
