In a recent interaction on Star Sports, Shah Rukh Khan opened up about his next film project, as his fans anticipate for his return to the silver screens with something bigger and better. The actor reminded how he had been busy with three back-to-back films the last year, and remarked requiring some rest, due to the immense physical hard work he put in all of it. In his words:
“I had three releases last year. I just felt ki main thoda rest kar sakta hoon. Teen filmein kar chuka hoon, it took a lot of physical work also. So I said maybe I’ll take some time off.”

Previously, Kolkata Knight Riders lost a match against Rajasthan Royals during IPL 2024. While the team was surely disheartened to see the match slip from their fingers at the last minute, it was SRK who gave them an endearing speech in the dressing room and motivated them. He said:
“There are days in our lives, in sports, specially, when we don’t deserve to lose. And there are days also when we don’t deserve to win. But days are like that, which turns things around. Today, we didn’t deserve to lose. All of us played extremely well. We have to be very, very proud of ourselves. Please don’t feel sad or down. Feel as happy as we feel whenever we come to the changing room and we are on a high. So maintain the high.”
