Shah Rukh Khan's surprising reaction on being addressed as Salman Khan

Mumbai: Shah Rukh Khan will be seen on small screen once again, this time as a host of TED Talks India. TED talks India show is one of its kind that will be aired on TV. At the recent launch event of the show, Shah Rukh Khan answered to many interesting questions. The King Khan was at his usual charming best during the media interaction.

When asked about the competition with fellow actors Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar and their respective shows Bigg Boss 11 and The Great Indian Laughter Challenge. The actor replied with a declaration that he’s not in competition with anyone. It was then when a journalist by mistake addressed him as Salman. And not just once or twice, the journo repeatedly addressed him as Salman. By the time she realised the goof up, Shah Rukh Khan asked about her name and intentionally mispronounced it as Deepika. Not to mention, everyone present in the auditorium burst into laughter and appreciated superstar’s sense of humour.

Well, we admire Shah Rukh Khan’s impeccable ability to handle such goof-ups so sportingly.

During the same interaction the actor was also asked about hosting a show like Bigg Boss and if he would be interested. He remarked, “I have hosted several shows. But honestly I have not been approached for such kind of show, yet. If I will have time, I will. If it gives good money. Having said that, I am not charging for TED as much as the other actors are for their respective shows.”

After the debacle of his last release Jab Harry Met Sejal, Shah Rukh Khan will be seen in Anand L.Rai’s upcoming movie alongside Katrina Kaif, Anushka Sharma as main lead and several other Bollywood actresses in cameo appearance.
