'Go to hell Dil'? Too girly; I'm too macho to say that: Shah Rukh Khan

Mumbai: Shah Rukh Khan is widely revered for his immensely wicked wit and humour, and it's one of his many traits that his fans cherish.

The actor, who'll be sene playing a quirky therapist to Alia Bhatt in Gauri Shinde's 'Dear Zindagi,' has been promoting the film all guns blazing along with the young talented actress.

The film, which also stars a massive male ensemble, including Kunal Kapoor, Angad Bedi, Aditya Roy Kapoor, Ali Zafar and Tahir Raj Bhasin, is a slice-of-life flick which has been massively appreciated for its innovative teasers and relatable song videos.

In a recent chat show, where SRK and Alia were present to promote the film, however, his humour took an unexpected turn as the superstar ended up making a 'sexist' comment, as per his own admission.

When asked to speak about a moment in his life when he screamed to his heart and said, 'Go to hell, dil,' SRK nonchalantly remarked, "Can I be a little sexist and say it’s a lil girly thing to do? I’m too macho to say go to hell dil. I’m being honest. Mai ma behen ki gaaliyan de sakto lekin Go to hell dil nahi."

Well, this might not go well with a certain sect and SRK could find himself stuck with an unnecessary quandary.

It remains to be seen if people choose to see it as a joke and let him be.
