Ananya also shared that not just his immediate kids, SRK looked after Ananya and Shanaya Kapoor as well.
Praising SRK as a father, she said, “He’s just the most amazing father. He has given his children, and not just his immediate children but all of us, so much time. Even though he may be the busiest man, he will always take that time out for his kids, for their education, for their sports. He’s come for every single sports day of ours, he’s taught me for my relay races, he used to practice taekwondo with us, he taught Shanaya and me how to ride a bike, he’d play football with us, help us with our homework. Any problem we had, we could call him up. He’s the definition of an emotionally available man.”

She also opened up about the actor’s charisma and said, “It’s that charisma thing. When you are the king but you can still make everybody feel like they’re the king. He does that. The way he conducts himself; he’s been very real. If you watch his old interviews, he has never been some cookie-cutter, formulaic thing. He has always spoken his mind. He has always been honest and real. If he’s angry, he’s angry; if he’s emotional, he’s emotional; if he’s happy, he’s happy. You’ve seen all sides of him.”
Shah Rukh Khan and his wife Gauri Khan have three children – Aryan Khan, Suhana Khan and AbRam Khan.
