Shah Rukh Khan, who has delivered back-to-back action blockbusters in Pathaan and Jawan, said he likes being a romantic hero wielding weapons in his films. 

A day after the latest song from his upcoming release Dunki, titled Nikle The Kabhi Hum Ghar Se, was unveiled, Shah Rukh did a quick Ask SRK session on X (formerly Twitter), where he talked about Dunki and even opened up about his family.

When a fan combined stills from Pathaan, Jawan and Dunki with Shah Rukh wielding a gun and wrote, "Shotgun se shooting for 3 All Time Blockbusters in 2023?" To this, Shah Rukh said, “I actually really like this….for a romantic hero to be wielding a gun so big in all films!!!”

In response to a Twitterati’s question, “You made us so emotional with this song. What’s your emotional weak point?” SRK noted, “My family, I guess… isn’t that for everyone?”

Responding to another user’s query about whether he misses Delhi and a request to talk about his childhood, the actor said, “Main toh abhi bhi Bachaa hoon (I am still a child). Had a lovely childhood, and I do miss my parents a lot.”

Directed by Rajkumar Hirani, Dunki is a saga of friendships, borders, nostalgia for home and love.

Apart from Shah Rukh Khan and Taapsee, the film also features Boman Irani, Vicky Kaushal, Vikram Kochhar and Anil Grover.

Dunki is a JIO Studios, Red Chillies Entertainment, and Rajkumar Hirani Films presentation produced by Rajkumar Hirani and Gauri Khan. It has been written by Abhijat Joshi, Rajkumar Hirani and Kanika Dhillon. 

Dunki will hit the theatres on December 21.
