He explained that he was told by several people in the industry that he didn't look good, and neither was he born with the skill to act, he acquired it. He compared himself to the captain of the Indian cricket team and said, 

''We are very quick to judge. I would like to say that I have lived a dream life. I would say that Virat Kohli is god gifted, I don't feel I am not gifted. I had the passion of acting and made sure I do it."
 

During the question-answer round, he was asked about the Indian cricket team and the players, even before anything further could be asked, Shah Rukh who was sitting right beside Anushka, said,

Speaking about his youngest son AbRam, he candidly said that he sometimes makes him feel like a loser, which makes him wonder if he is a bad father. He expressed that he has this worry that if he keeps doing films and doesn't spend time with his kids, then they will find him uncool. King Khan also added that his wife Gauri hilariously thinks that Aryan and Suhana find him to be a loser already.

Here's what he exactly said during the interaction, "AbRam made me feel like a loser the other day when I wanted him to sit next to me but he didn’t. I felt if I am a bad father? Am I doing a lot of films and not giving time. And Gauri Khan asked me to not worry as even Aryan Khan and Suhana Khan think I am a loser."
