MUMBAI: A doting father and Bollywood superstar Shahrukh Khan wants his children to be whatever they wish to be in life without making any compromises to their health and happiness. He calls them “good kids” and is happy that they are “better human beings” than him.
Shahrukh and his wife Gauri have three children – 17-year-old Aryan, 14-year-old Suhana and Abram who will soon turn one and was born via surrogacy.
“I would like them to be healthy and happy. Do whatever they wish. They should do whatever that makes them happy and be healthy. I never ask my children to become an actor or engineer. They can be whatever they wish to be,” the 48-year-old actor told reporters on Fathers’ Day, Sunday.
The actor is happy that his children are growing up into better human beings. “None of my children have my habits. I thank God for that. They are good kids. The only commonality between Suhana, Abram and me is that we get dimples,” said the actor. “They are much better human beings than I am,” he added.
As far his upcoming projects are concerned, Shahrukh will next be seen in Farah Khan’s Happy New Year co-starring Deepika Padukone.
