The superstar has rewritten the meaning of success in the industry and given us memorable characters from ‘Aman’ in Kal Ho Naa Ho and ‘Veer’ in Veer-Zara to hold on forever.

Shah Rukh Khan reveals he does household chores and cleaning off-set
Shah Rukh Khan recently marked his presence at the first edition of the World Audio Visual Entertainment Summit (WAVES) in Mumbai on May 1, 2025, where he sat down with Deepika Padukone for a conversation moderated by Karan Johar. During the conversation, the filmmaker asked the superstar what his daily life behind the camera at his grand mansion, Mannat, looks like. In his response, Shah Rukh Khan gave an unexpected answer and said:
“My close friends know that I generally don’t do much. My father taught me, ‘Jo kuch nahi karte hain woh kamaal karte hain. I do some household chores, help clean the house, and assist my son AbRam with his books and updating his iPad. I avoid overdoing, overthinking, and overworking. I am usually in a meditative state of mind. When I am not on set, I honestly don’t do anything.”
