Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan once again won hearts online after a lighthearted and humorous interaction with a fan at a recent event in Mangaluru went viral. The actor, who attended a special gathering hosted by Rohan Corporation on June 25, was greeted by massive fan enthusiasm both at the airport and the event venue.
During the event, Shah Rukh Khan engaged warmly with the audience, even dancing to some of his iconic songs as fans cheered loudly. The atmosphere turned particularly entertaining when a female fan openly declared that she loved Shah Rukh Khan more than her husband, a moment that immediately caught the actor’s attention and left the crowd laughing.
Responding with his signature wit and charm, Shah Rukh smiled and said, “Yeh sab akele mein batana chahiye na,” a remark that quickly went viral across social media platforms. The actor’s humorous response added to the cheerful mood of the event, with fans sharing clips of the interaction widely online.
He further clarified his playful comment, adding that he understood the sentiment behind the fan’s words and jokingly acknowledged her feelings while extending his affection to her family as well. Shah Rukh said, “I know it is a matter of speech and I understand your feelings, and I am sure your husband does too. I love you all. I love your husband. I love your family. Thank you so much.”
The viral moment has since sparked widespread engagement on social media, with fans praising Shah Rukh Khan for his quick humour, humility, and ability to connect effortlessly with audiences.
In another segment of the event, Shah Rukh was asked about what profession he would have chosen if he had not become an actor. The superstar responded thoughtfully, saying he would have loved to live in a city like Mangaluru and possibly become a teacher, mentioning schools such as St Aloysius School, Sharda Vidyalaya, or Mt. Carmel School.
The actor’s candid response further endeared him to fans, who appreciated his grounded personality despite his global stardom.
