'Most of the time I am in my bedroom avatar'

Shah Rukh added: "Some say I am old, some say I am very young. I don't feel my age at all. I am 47. I think I am the first actor, who started talking about age and I have no qualms about it."

About his looks, he says, "I don't like looking proper and prim in my hairstyle. I like when I am on my terrace, where my hair is flying. Most of the time, I am in my bedroom avatar. Only when I am in front of the camera do I change gears and look more suave."
