MUMBAI: It is pretty obvious by now that when it comes to doing comedy, Shah Rukh Khan is the perfect man to don the role. Be it hosting award functions or his witty one-liners.

Having played several comic characters on the big-screen in films like ‘Baadshah’, ‘Duplicate’, ‘Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani’ (the film itself being a comedy of errors) and his supporting antics with Saif Ali Khan in ‘Kal Ho Naa Ho’ the actor now made an appearance as a stand-up comedian on the small-screen.

Currently on a promotional drive for his upcoming film ‘Chennai Express’ starring Deepika Padukone and directed by Rohit Shetty, SRK was there in a comedy show promoting ‘Chennai Express’.

The actor had earlier made an appearance on the same show along with Deepika, whilst this time he chose to be accompanied by Rohit Shetty.

But more than the host Kapil Sharma, it was Shah Rukh Khan who grabbed all attention. So much that even actor-comedian Ali Asgar couldn’t control his emotions. SRK’s hilarious stand-up act charged him so much that he kissed Shah Rukh Khan in public (for the cameras).

Shah Rukh Khan has always been a great entertainer, especially with his comic acts. Wonder if we shall see more of the stand-up comedian in King Khan. For now all eyes on ‘Chennai Express’, which is set to release on 9 August.
