Bollywood’s King Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, is admired not just for his powerful screen presence but also for his unmatched charm in real life. Interestingly, this charm worked wonders even during his school days. Shah Rukh has often shared stories from his childhood, revealing how his teachers would forgive him even after he made mistakes.

In one such interview, Shah Rukh revealed that his teacher was so impressed by his smile that she couldn’t stay upset with him for long. This anecdote gives fans a glimpse into how smart and quick-witted he was even as a child.

What was Shah Rukh’s teacher crazy about?

Sharing a funny memory, Shah Rukh once said:

“My teacher used to say that I have a devil’s smile. Whenever I smiled, I was instantly forgiven. Once, I damaged something in the chemistry lab. When the teacher caught me, I started crying and told her that my parents are also strict at home and that she is just like my mother. Hearing this, she softened and said, ‘It’s okay, son, I am just like your mother.’”

This innocent yet clever trick of little Shah Rukh left a lasting impression on fans, showing that his ability to win hearts existed long before stardom.
