Blessed with the gift of gab, Shah Rukh Khan seldom ceases to impress the masses with his witty banter. So it comes as no surprise that the superstar made everyone chuckle with his funny statements time and again, yesterday at the success event of the Happy New Year game. The event was also graced by his co-stars, Abhishek Bachchan, Boman Irani, Sonu Sood, Vivaan Shah and the film’s director, Farah Khan. Only the flick’s leading lady, Deepika Padukone couldn’t make it to the do.
But the rest of the team seemed to be in a celebratory mode considering their film is weaving magic at the box-office. Each of them happily interacted with the media. But it was SRK who instantly won the hearts of everyone present at the event, with his sense of wit.
There was an instance when a journalist named Salma asked a question to Abhishek. And while replying to her, when AB Jr. addressed her with her name, SRK interrupted saying, “Why are you taking her name so many times?” For those who haven’t guessed it already, our King Khan made this remark because the name Salma was sounding like the name Salman. And we all know everything about the love-hate relationship that SRK shares with Salman Khan.
Naturally, it made everyone giggle. And I thought of making you guys giggle too with these cute and witty liners dished out by our Baadshah Khan at the event.
1. “I am a playboy (laughs). I mean I am a game boy. I love playing video games.”
2. “Deepika wants to work with AbRam in her next film. She thinks he’s taller than me.”
3. “I didn’t romance Deepika much in Happy New Year because I think have already romanced her too much in Om Shanti Om and Chennai Express.”
4. “Farah’s kids call us and tell us to extend our shoots so that their mom stays away from home.”
5. “The only game that I play with AbRam is the one where we both shake our heads.”
Kudos to SRK for ALWAYS making us smile with his words!
