New Delhi: In a candid ask-me-anything session online, Shah Rukh Khan revealed that he had seen both the Dhurandhar films and loved every bit of it. The AskSRK session took place on X, where King Khan interacted with fans and answered questions about his upcoming projects, co-stars, personal habits and even relationships.

When a fan asked him, “Have you seen Dhurandhar?”, Khan replied, “Loved both the parts… fantastic by the whole team!!!”

With his upcoming film King set to hit theatres on 24 December, one fan asked Khan to share some dialogues from the film, saying they could not wait for its release.

Khan responded that it was too early to release dialogues from the film, but shared one after several fans requested it.

24 December ko King, picture abhi baaki hai..King akela kaafi hai (King on December 24, the picture is still left to be seen…King alone is enough),” he said.

The actor was also asked how it felt reuniting with Deepika Padukone and Rani Mukerji in the upcoming action thriller. Khan described the experience as “the best ever”, adding that it is always lovely to work with his best friends.

Another fan simply shared a picture standing beside a life-size poster of Khan.

Arre yaar ab aise poster banoge toh body aur banani padhegi (Oh man, if you are going to make posters like this, then I will have to build my body even more),” Khan said in response to the photo.

Khan was also asked whether he is worried about a clash between King and Marvel’s Avengers: Doomsday, which is scheduled to release around the same time.

Pehle to Baap hi ayega beta!!! (The father will arrive first, son),” Khan said when asked which film would release first.

The actor also responded to a fan who asked why he is “so handsome”. Khan joked that his handsomeness keeps growing, just like his hair.

Kya karun (What can I do). Keep trying, but the handsomeness just keeps growing and growing. Like my hair….!,” he wrote.

The AskSRK session also saw Khan turn relationship advisor for one of his fans. One X user revealed that she got married earlier this year and asked the King of Romance about the “green flag” needed to maintain a happy married life.

Ek doosre ke rang mein rang jao (Colour yourselves in each other’s colours)….make adjustments so both of you make the partner happier,” Khan suggested.

Khan also offered fans insight into his daily routine, sharing that he drinks three cups of coffee in bed in the morning, even when he is running late for work.

“Then, of course, on sets get shouted at for being late and have no Kingly feelings left,” he joked.
