Seated at a restaurant in London surrounded by some 10 women, including his wife Gauri, when Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh says that he “likes being with girls”, you simply have to believe him.
“I don’t have many boyfriends. I like being with girls – and probably that’s why people think I’m a little girlish. But I don’t have any such male bonding with anyone…,” Shah Rukh said in the first episode of Discovery Travel & Living’s upcoming series “Living With A Superstar – Shah Rukh Khan”.
Most of Shah Rukh’s closest friends are of the opposite sex – Kajol, Farah Khan, Juhi Chawla, Rani Mukerji and so on.
Among his best known male friends is filmmaker Karan Johar, with whom he has done many hit films like Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham and Kabhie Alvida Naa Kehna. Shah Rukh’s most awaited film of the year My Name Is Khan is also Johar’s baby.
The new TV series Living With A Superstar chronicles Shah Rukh in his real, day-to-day life. It aims at taking viewers into the private spaces of the 44-year-old, who is fondly known as King Khan by many of his fans and colleagues.
The 10-part series, which has Shah Rukh’s voiceover, will go on air Feb 26 at 9 p.m. with a slice of his life from a family vacation in London.
