"Beyond my drop-dead gorgeous looks (grins) and stardom, we are a normal family. I know it looks alien and different from the outside. But I want my kids (Aryan Khan, Suhana Khan, AbRam) to be humble about their privileges. The wife (Gauri Khan) keeps the balance with her wisdom. At the core of it is simplicity. I'm just someone who found a way to spread happiness, so they support me."

"I come from a background where if I touch people's lives, there's nothing more important. I've never understood stardom; I want to give them joy. I am like a monkey; I'll do anything for you. When people like me for that, it makes me happy. Everyone has a life, but they take the time to love me. Stardom is just a byproduct of that, but it all has to do only with me and them."
