Shah Rukh Khan shared that when his son Aryan was born, he thought Aryan resembled Jackie Chan, noting that newborns often have distinct expressions. He jokingly mentioned that Aryan looked very Jackie Chan-ish to him. This resemblance inspired Shah Rukh to train Aryan in taekwondo, with the hope that he might grow up to be like Jackie Chan, a desire he admitted he held honestly.
In the same interview, the ‘Pathaan’ actor candidly discussed the origins of his famous open-arms pose. He credited the late choreographer Saroj Khan for its inception, humorously stating, “I don’t know.
