Shah Rukh Khan hits back at 'amazingly intelligent' troll, hopes he 'recovers soon'

Star was not in the mood to play around, it seems


Entertainment Desk December 07, 2023

Shah Rukh Khan, the beloved superstar, has a film due for release in December. As the date for the audience consumption of Dunki approaches, the star has been interacting with his fans on X. While most interactions stay pleasant, despite attempts of trolling, one X user seemed to have caught Shah Rukh on a bad day at an even worse time.

"Due to your highly effective and efficient PR team, the last two [awful] movies of yours became a blockbuster," remarked the user. "Do you still have faith in your PR and marketing team that [Dunki] will also be a hit and will be another golden [sh--] from Bollywood?" asked the user of the microblogging site. Shah Rukh did not hold back as a response.

True to his witty and charming nature, the superstar replied, "Normally I don’t answer amazingly intelligent people like you. But in your case, I am making an exception because I feel you need to be treated for constipation. Will tell my PR team to send you some golden medicines…hope you recover soon."

Tracing back to the questions-and-answers session in progress, the megastar claimed that he felt "happy and laid back" after the release of the Dunki trailer and The Archies. He wanted a few moments with his fans "of fun and funny answers," and therefore, he initiated his trademark "Ask SRK" interactive session with his fans and followers. Despite the setback, not all interactions were the same.

"Dunki looks like having SRK from every decade since you’ve been working. How tough was the transformation? Or was VFX used? Also, plans for 2024?" asked one fan. "One has to work on physical attributes to play different ages…Prosthetics and VFX and a whole lot of team members have to work very hard to try and get it right. Months of work," responded the star.

One fan even asked if his look for Dunki was inspired by his youngest son, or vice versa. To this, the actor said, "My entire family is beautiful," with a typed chuckle. "It was a dialogue in Yes Boss and I love it."
