Solace from kids for Shahrukh after KKR defeat

Kolkata Knight Riders owner Shah Rukh Khan today said he felt sad after his team's shabby performance in their away match of Indian Premier League against Royal Challengers Bangalore and had to seek solace from his children and close friends.

"Bad day yesterday. Friend (co-owner Juhi Chawla's brother) still not well ... had to take hugs from kids and friends to avoid being sad. KKR did little to help either," Shah Rukh said on his Twitter page.

"Have to spend more time with people I love and care for.

Feel them around me more. Waste too much time with peripherals of life ... missing the core," he wrote.

Shah Rukh had stayed away from the last two IPL games of his team to be beside Bobby Chawla, his company Red Chillies Entertainment chief executive officer, who was hospitalised after collapsing at a restaurant recently.
