"No," says Shah Rukh. He will not marry Karan Johar !

A simple answer to a stupid question.

At the recently held Hindustan Times Leadership Summit, superstar Shah Rukh Khan shared some interesting facts in an exclusive "rapid fire" interview round with CNN-IBN Delhi Bureau Chief Bhupendra Chaubey.

The "king Khan" said if he weren’t acting, he would be teaching it. Following are the excerpts:

Bhupendra Chaubey: I am going to do what your friend Karan Johar does on his show Koffee with Karan. I am going to throw some questions your way in what we have also called the “rapid fire” round.

Here goes: If Shah Rukh Khan had an option, would he marry Karan Johar?

Shah Rukh Khan: …No. (laughs)

Bhupendra Chaubey: Okay. If Salman Khan came to you looking for some advice for his broken heart, what would that advice be?

Shah Rukh Khan: I’ll say get a six pack like me, forget the broken heart.

Bhupendra Chaubey: May be you could also say ‘give up smoking’ too?

Shah Rukh Khan: No, he doesn’t smoke as much as I do

Bhupendra Chaubey: If you would have to start from scratch or were asked to make another beginning, would you have liked to become an actor again?

Shah Rukh Khan: A teacher.

Bhupendra Chaubey: And what would you teach?

Shah Rukh Khan: Acting. (laughs)

Shah Rukh also spoke about reasons that led him to sign on Chak de India. “I don't want to give messages, but yes, sometimes that is true. The kind of films that attract me somehow internally do make me want to say certain things. That’s why I say ‘I’ll do this one’ - like Kabir Khan leading 16 women from across all states. Talk about woman emancipation, talk about sports but don’t let anyone else pick on you just because you happen to be from a minority community,” he said.
