“Bhai, tere sawaalon ka bachpana jab chala jaaye…” – Shah Rukh Khan Shuts Down Troll Suggesting Retirement
Mumbai, 17 August 2025 – Bollywood megastar Shah Rukh Khan once again proved why he’s called the King of Wit, when he delivered a savage yet classy response to a social media user who suggested that he should retire due to his age. The incident took place during a sudden #AskSRK session on X (formerly Twitter), which the actor hosted on a rainy Mumbai evening simply to spend time with his fans.
The session quickly became a trending topic across India as thousands of fans joined in to ask questions ranging from football, favourite foods, upcoming films, health updates, and life advice. However, one bold comment caught everyone’s attention and sparked an unexpected viral moment.
The Troll’s Comment and SRK’s Savage Reply
In the middle of the cheerful conversation, a user wrote directly to the star: “Bhai, ab umar ho gayi, retirement le lo… dusre bache logo ko aage aane do.”
It didn’t take long for Shah Rukh Khan to notice the remark. Instead of ignoring it or responding harshly, he decided to shut it down in true SRK fashion. His reply read:
“Bhai, tere sawaalon ka bachpana jab chala jaaye… phir kuch accha saa puchna! Tab tak temporary retirement mein reh please.”
Within minutes, the tweet exploded across social media platforms, with fans praising the actor for delivering a perfect and humorous comeback. Many users began reposting the reply with captions like “King for a reason”, “SRK never misses”, and “Savage level – Shah Rukh Khan”.
A Rainy-Day #AskSRK
Before the viral exchange, Shah Rukh had started the interaction by explaining that he was in a relaxed mood. “Rainy day. Doing physio. Thought I will spend some time with you all,” he wrote, in response to someone asking why he suddenly popped up online.
The Q&A lasted around 35–40 minutes and was filled with light-hearted banter. The actor answered questions about his favourite books, travel plans, and even joked with a fan about whether biryani should have aloo or not.
Health Update and Shooting Plans
Apart from the viral reply, another major highlight of the session was Shah Rukh’s update on his health and work schedule. The actor is currently recovering from a leg injury that took place on a film set last month. He assured fans that he is getting better and undergoing regular physiotherapy.
He added that filming for his next project is still underway in a limited capacity. “Right now only leg shots are being done. Once fully fit, we resume the real action,” he wrote in an honest update.
National Award Celebration
One fan congratulated him for recently winning the National Film Award for Best Actor, which led to another wholesome response from the actor. “YAY!!!!! I feel like the King of the Nation!! Too much honour…” he wrote. Fans immediately flooded the thread with celebratory messages, calling the moment “well deserved” and “long overdue”.
Aryan Khan’s Directorial Debut Gets A Mention
Another fan asked for updates about his son Aryan Khan’s upcoming directorial debut web series, “The Ba**ds of Bollywood”. Shah Rukh confirmed that the first look of the show is ready and said it would be released “very soon”, causing even more excitement among the fandom.
Fans React to the Retirement Comment
What really amplified the viral moment was the flood of fan reactions to the retirement suggestion. One fan club posted, “Retirement? He’s ageing like fine wine and still outperforming everyone else.” Another wrote, “There will always be younger stars. There will never be another Shah Rukh Khan.”
Why This Moment Went Viral
In an era where celebrities are constantly scrutinised on social media, Shah Rukh Khan’s response stood out as the perfect example of how to blend humour, self-confidence, and respect. Rather than lashing out or ignoring the disrespectful remark, he turned it around in a witty yet calm manner — winning hearts and reminding everyone why he remains one of India’s most loved public figures.
At 59, Shah Rukh Khan continues to dominate both the box office and social media — and judging by his response, retirement is clearly not on the cards anytime soon.
