On Saturday (6 May), Bollywood megastar Shah Rukh Khan took to Twitter for an #AskSRK session. After unveiling the poster for his upcoming film, Jawan, the actor urged his fans to engage.
He tweeted, "Just because I think I would like to….let’s do #AskSRK for half an hour or so. #Jawan #7thSeptember2023"
As with every #AskSRK session, fans found unique ways to get the Pathaan actor to respond to their questions. Referring to Aryan Khan's newly-launched clothing brand, D'YAVOL X, a fan asked, "ye dyavol x ke jacket thoda sa 1000- 2000 wale bhi bana do.... Wo wale khareedne me to ghar chala jayega #AskSRK (Please sell D'YAVOL X jackets for Rs 1000-2000, as well...We'll need to sell our house to buy the original one").
For the unaware, since the launch of the brand, both Aryan Khan and D'YAVOL X has been criticized for the sky-high prices.
Taking a cheeky dig at the prices himself, King Khan responded, "Yeh D’Yavol X wale log mujhe bhi sasti nahi bech rahe….kuch karta hoon..!! #Jawan (These folks at D’Yavol X are not even selling it t me at cheaper rates…Let me do something).”
Besides D'YAVOL X, Aryan Khan is also making his film debut as a writer and director soon. The project, which is currently underway, will be backed by Shah Rukh and Gauri Khan's production house, Red Chillies Entertainment.
