Shah Rukh Khan has confessed he stays away from reading film reviews and catches them only if they are funny.
“I don’t read reviews [not taking away from the importance of reviews],” Khan said.
“I have a sense of humour and most of the time my sense of humour is about how I can make fun of myself, about 70 per cent of the time, and 30 per cent of the time it is about making fun of others.
“But they take it very, very, seriously so I stopped doing it,” said Khan, who was in Kolkata to celebrate the success of his latest release Happy New Year.
“So, I do it just about myself and if it’s a review I try and catch it only if it’s funny. If it’s serious about how filmmaking should be, I am really serious about filmmaking, so I don’t really want to get into that,” he said.
Directed by Farah Khan, Happy New Year released in India on October 24 and is yielding profits at the box office — it crossed Rs1 billion (Dh59 million) in the opening weekend itself. The film is produced by Khan’s Red Chillies Entertainments Pvt. Ltd.
