2025 has been a standout year for Shah Rukh Khan. The superstar not only took home a National Award but also watched his son’s debut turn into a blockbuster, putting him firmly in the spotlight.
Now, a throwback interview of Shah Rukh Khan from the Dilwale promotions has gone viral on Reddit. In the clip, he talks about Aryan’s stardom in his trademark humour. While the statement was clearly made in jest, Reddit users have a lot to say about it.
Shah Rukh Khan’s Throwback Statement On Son Aryan
A Reddit post titled “SRK won’t even let his son become a star like him, let alone others” has been circulating recently, featuring a video clip of Shah Rukh Khan. In the clip, the interviewer asks the actor whether he had once said that his stardom should continue until his son becomes a star. Responding to this, the Dilwale actor denied ever making such a statement and humorously added that he wouldn’t even let his own son become a star like him. He clarified that he was speaking only about his son and that other star kids are free to become stars.
After the light-hearted response, Shah Rukh Khan explained that he often says things jokingly and that people should take his remarks with a sense of humour to understand them better. Kajol then chimed in, playfully adding, “Don’t quote-unquote it.”
