Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan<\/a> made headlines last year when he opened up about his lifestyle that includes just five hours of sleep. Now, after nearly a year, an old interview of the actor has gone viral on social media, where the Jawan star can be seen sharing his food habits.<\/p>\n

About eight years ago, in an interview with RJ Devanggana, Shah Rukh had given a sneak peek of his gym where he works out late night, and shared the food he has been eating for years.<\/p>\n

Claiming that he doesn\u2019t diet, Shah Rukh Khan said, \u201cI naturally prefer very simple food. I eat two meals a day: lunch and dinner. I eat nothing apart from these two meals. Mujhe pakwan pasand nahi<\/em> (I don\u2019t like fancy foods). I eat sprouts, grilled chicken, broccoli, sometimes a little bit of dal. This is all I have been eating repeatedly on a daily basis for several years.\u201d<\/p>\n

Shah Rukh, however, clarified that these food habits are only limited to when he is alone. The actor shared whenever he travels or visits a friend\u2019s house, he adjusts his food habits to whatever is available and offered.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cIf I am travelling, in a plane, or visiting friends and family for dinner or lunch, I eat everything they have to offer, be it biryani, roti, paratha, ghee, lassi. I eat anything that they offer.\u201d<\/p>\n

Shah Rukh Khan\u2019s answer more or less remained the same when last year in an interview with The Guardian, he shared details about his sleeping and food habits.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cI go to sleep at five in the morning. When Mark Wahlberg gets up, I go off to sleep. And then I wake up about nine or 10 if I am shooting. But then I will come home at 2 am, take a bath and then work out before I go to sleep.\u201d There too he clarified that cutting down on his meals was his personal choice and has nothing to do with intermittent fasting or any other diet.<\/p>\n

In the same interview, Shah Rukh shared he learnt to work out during the COVID-19<\/a> pandemic. He said, \u201cAt the age of 55, I took a kind of sabbatical. During the pandemic there was nothing else to do and I was telling everyone: learn Italian cooking and work out. I was working out. I built a body.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n
