Shah Rukh Khan is known for his impeccable lip-syncing skills, so much so that even Alia Bhatt once took lessons from the superstar. However, the actor recently admitted that he found it difficult to keep up with Ed Sheeran’s fast-paced lyrics in King’s song Tu Mil Jaaye. While Shah Rukh struggled to remember the words, he was thoroughly impressed with how effortlessly his daughter, Suhana Khan, lip-synced to the track.
Shah Rukh Khan reveals struggling to remember Ed Sheeran’s lyrics in Tu Mil Jaaye
Shah Rukh’s daughter Suhana shared a GRWM (Get Ready With Me) video on Instagram as she got ready to attend Manish Malhotra’s Diwali bash. In the video, the actor was seen getting her hair and make-up done while lip-syncing to Ed Sheeran’s part in King’s song Tu Mil Jaaye. The video ended with a transition showing Suhana going from wearing a night suit to looking stunning in a red and gold lehenga for the Diwali bash.
Shah Rukh was quick to react to the video and wrote, “How do you remember the words it was so difficult for me because Ed sings so fast!!!” Fans were thrilled to see the superstar’s comment. One fan wrote, “because she’s your daughter.” Another commented, “She got these skills from you.” Another comment read, “father cheering for his daughter is the best thing ever.” Yet another fan wrote, “everything is possible for King and his princess.”
Suhana will be making her theatrical debut with King. The actor, who made her acting debut with Zoya Akhtar’s Netflix film The Archies, is all set to make her big-screen debut.
