Shah Rukh posted a video and he was his usual witty self as he said his fans have made him a better person. “This is not a thank you for reaching 20 million followers. This is a thank you for helping me deal with so many things that happen to me everyday. Things that make me sometimes frown, sometimes angry and sometimes worse than angry. When I go to my timeline, I see the love and warmth that all of it turns into smile.”
He added, “So I want to thank you also for all things that peeve me otherwise. I thank the man who shoves a currency note under my note, requesting my autograph. Sir, it is very difficult to write on a currency note and it is illegal to deface it. I also want to thank the man who suddenly comes and sits in the small seat in front of my first-class plane seat and introduces himself while I am trying to catch a glimpse of Jennifer Lawrence behind his back. Sir, I am not interested in knowing why you are going to the same city as I am or what you are going to do there in the evening.”

“Thank you’s are also in order for the man who suddenly bends down in a public place wearing such loose jeans that I can see the cleavage of his hairy bum. Thank you man, for giving me a repressed mid-life,” he further said.
