SRK the 'babysitter'

That Shah Rukh Khan is a doting father to his children and loves to spend time with them, is well-known. But the actor happens to love children and very few know that.

The actor was recently shooting for a commercial, which required him to act with a four-year-old girl. Normally, you would expect the child actor to have cold feet in attempting to act with one of the biggest stars of Bollywood. But the new generation of kids sure is full of surprises.

Apparently, this particular kid happened to be a quite moody and naughty. But SRK did not think twice before turning into a babysitter for this child. Hard to imagine? Read on.

A source from the sets reveals, "Few days ago, Shah Rukh was shooting a commercial with a four-year-old baby girl in Mumbai. She was a little mischievous and refused to deliver the shot as required. She was extremely cranky and was misbehaving constantly.

Although her parents were present there, SRK went up to her and started playing with her. He gave her a box of chocolates, and sat and spoke with her till she calmed down."

It doesn't end at the playing bit. Apparently, Shah Rukh decided to make a painting just for this kid. Who would've imagined colours to be therapeutic to children as well?

The girl was thrilled with the new painting when SRK handed it to her. All of a sudden, she was ready to shoot with King Khan. Of course, what followed was an hour-long mischief and games session between the girl and SRK, who was in splits most of the time.

The shoot was wrapped up by the end of the day and the girl clicked a lot of pictures with the actor. And mind you, this wasn't because the four-year-old had suddenly discovered a star in Shah Rukh. She had found a new friend.

Being SRK: The ultimate reality TV show

It's a job most Indians would die for — shadowing Shah Rukh Khan wherever he goes. For the last two months, that's exactly what a TV crew has been doing, following the country's biggest star from South Africa to America to London to Mumbai — all for the making of a unique six-part series on the actor, to be telecast on lifestyle channel Discovery Travel & Living. "It's an inner world-outer world kind of documentary," said Khan, speaking exclusively to HT. "Hopefully, the parts that people will get to see of me — at work and at other places — will shed some light on how films and film stars work and offer an insight into how I do things." Khan said he has got to know the crew quite well ("They have been very unobtrusive"). For Discovery Travel & Living, this series will be one of the biggest global productions to come out of India and will be shown all over the world. "We haven't yet decided when we're going to telec

'Every Damn Time,' Tweets Shah Rukh Khan, Detained At US Airport

Movie star Shah Rukh Khan, detained at an airport in the US for questioning again, tweeted on Thursday: "Every damn time!" The 50-year-old actor was detained at the Los Angeles airport this time. A man with the same name is on a US no-fly list of 80,000 people. He took to Twitter to voice his exasperation. I fully understand & respect security with the way the world is, but to be detained at US immigration every damn time really really sucks. @iamsrk  The brighter side is while waiting caught some really nice Pokemons. @iamsrk  Mr Khan, one of the most successful stars in the Hindi film industry, has been held back at US airports thrice in seven years. American officials tell NDTV that during immigration checks, what pops up is a name without any other detail to help draw a distinction. In April 2012, Mr Khan was held back for over two hours at the airport in New York on a visit to address students at Yale University. He had joked later at Yale: "Whenever I start fee
