Shah Rukh Khan, who delivered blockbusters like Pathaan, Jawan and Dunki last year, has no plans of retiring. The superstar seemingly confirmed it at the IIFA 2024. In a video circulating on X (formerly Twitter), SRK was seen indulging in a friendly banter with Karan Johar. The duo shared the hosting responsibilities at the main awards night. During the conversation, Shah Rukh spoke about sports legends like Sachin Tendulkar, Roger Federer and Sunil Chhetri claiming that they know “when to stop, when to retire.” Referring to his statement, Karan Johar cheekily asked, “By that standard, aap kyun retire nahi hote? (Why don’t you retire then?)” to which SRK had the perfect response. He said, “Actually main dusre kisam ka legendary hoon. Main aur [MS] Dhoni ek kism ke hai. Na na karke bhi 10 baar IPL khelte hai. (Actually, I am a different kind of legendary. Dhoni and I share the same qualities. We plays IPL 10 times despite repeatedly saying no).”
