AskSRK: Shah Rukh Khan reveals his ‘King’-like habit, ADMITS what still makes him nervous and shares his current read!
Shah Rukh Khan gave fans another candid glimpse into his life during his latest #AskSRK session on X, formerly known as Twitter. Held on September 15, 2026, exactly 100 days before the release of his upcoming film King, the interaction saw the superstar answer a mix of questions about his personality, work and current interests.
While fans were eager for updates about King, several questions focused on the actor himself. From his morning coffee ritual to the one thing that still makes him nervous after decades in the spotlight, Shah Rukh responded with his trademark humour.
Shah Rukh Khan reveals his “King-like” morning ritual
When a fan asked Shah Rukh about the most “KING-like” thing he does in real life, the actor revealed that his mornings begin with a rather specific coffee routine. “Have three cups of coffee in bed before anybody can speak with me even if I am late for work!! Then of course on sets get shouted at for being late and have no Kingly feelings left!!” he replied.
