On the occasion of Valentine's Day, another Shah Rukh film -- the 1995 romance classic "Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge" (DDLJ) was re-released by Yash Raj Films, also the production banner behind "Pathaan".

Asked what should one watch today "DDLJ" or "Pathaan", the 57-year-old actor said: "On Valentine Day it should be #Pathaan day.. (sic)" Some fans wanted Shah Rukh to say a few words about his "Pathaan" co-star Deepika Padukone and megastar Amitabh Bachchan, with whom he has worked in films such as "Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham..." and "Mohabbatein".

"Deepika is love and too warm and beautiful," he said.

For the actor, Bachchan is "The only Legend".

Harking back to the viral video of Sharon Stone being surprised when she realised she was sitting next to Shah Rukh at last year's Red Sea Film Festival, a user asked what would he say about the moment that left the Hollywood actor "starstruck".

"Sharon may not know but I am her biggest fan. She is the most gorgeous and intelligent woman!!!" the actor commented.

When an admirer demanded an answer to their question which if remained unanswered he would have to make the sequel of "Fan", Shah Rukh at his wittiest replied: "I won't make 'Fan 2' anyway, do what you feel like doing... ha ha." The actor also spoke about working with filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani in their upcoming social comedy "Dunki".

"Raju Sir is a dream come true to work with. Learnt so much from him and his film making. I am truly fortunate and he is too much fun," he said.
