Koffee With Karan 8: Karan Johar Reveals When He Will Invite Shah Rukh Khan On The Show
Karan stated that he respects and acknowledges Shah Rukh Khan's choice and that he will get in touch with him when the "time is right."
Filmmaker Karan Johar has recently said that Shah Rukh Khan will not be participating in the current season of Koffee with Karan. Although he was a frequent participant in the celebrated chat show, Shah Rukh has not appeared in the last few seasons.
And we can all agree, we miss SRK¡¯s charm on the couch!
Karan stated that he respects and acknowledges Shah Rukh Khan's choice and that he will get in touch with him when the "time is right."
¡°I just know if there is any megastar who has earned his right to speak when he needs to, it is Shah Rukh Khan. I, of all the people, have been his closest friend and family and should understand that. I have that leverage because he is family to me,¡± the filmmaker said.
¡°I can ask him and request him and he has never said no to me. So, I never asked because I know he didn¡¯t want to be in that situation of dilemma, where he has to say no to me. I pick and choose what I ask for,¡± he said.
¡°When the right time is there, I will ask him. I know when he has to want to speak, he will. When he does, it¡¯ll be extraordinary because no one gives interviews better than Shah Rukh Khan. Nobody speaks better than him,¡± he said.
He also said that he speaks to SRK everyday. ¡°I don¡¯t miss him that way, because I have ¡®Koffee with Karan¡¯ with him every night. Almost every evening, Shah Rukh, Gauri (Khan, wife), his family and I meet. I¡¯m having those conversations. I understand why you might miss him, but I¡¯m satiated because he¡¯s a big, huge part of my existence,¡± he added.
