When I speak to a woman, I'd like her to be lying down: Shah Rukh Khan

Known for his witty remarks, Shah Rukh Khan was seen at his humorous best at a book launch event in Mumbai. Shah Rukh was speaking at the launch of She Walks,She Leads by debutante writer Gunjan Jain.

The Indian Express reports that while addressing the audience, SRK also mentioned about the author Gunjan's hard work. However, Gunjan, on hearing her name from SRK couldn't contain her excitement and rose from her seat in the front row. Being the quick witted person that he is, Shah Rukh, in candid humour remarked, "Please sit! This may be politically incorrect, but actually when I speak to a woman, I’d like her to be lying down." He was quick to add that this remark may get him into trouble, nonetheless the audience was left in splits of laughter.

Shah Rukh then spoke about the influence of women in his life and how his life has been shaped by women right from his grandmother to his daughter. He thanked all the women in his life who've influenced him including wife Gauri Khan and the 'aunties' and 'didis' of his neighbourhood in Delhi, added The Indian Express

She Walks,She Leads is published by Penguin Random House and the launch was hosted by Nita Ambani, who also features in the book as one of the 24 honorary women leaders.
