Shah Rukh Khan knows well how to balance his work life with his personal. The busy actor always finds time to spend with his children - Suhana, Aryan and AbRam, and also takes them along to screenings and parties.

Talking about managing his busy schedule and family to a leading daily, Shah Rukh said, "More often than not, I find myself falling short of time vis-à-vis my children, family, my work or even meetings. I have always maintained that there are very few hours in a day and I wish there were more of them."

Calling his family supportive and adjusting, Shah Rukh added, "Somehow, each one of them has figured a way to live around it – and that too happily. It’s shocking that in 25 years, I have never heard any of my family members complain that I don’t have time for them. They have adjusted their timings according to me."

Talking about an unfortunate incident that happened on the sets of Aanand L Rai's next, Shah Rukh revealed, "A few days back, during the shoot, a very nice moment happened despite the fact that it was a very hectic schedule. It was raining and the set was falling off and everyone was inconvenienced."

He further elaborated, "My producer, Karuna (Badwal) was really worried and told me, ‘Don’t worry sir, we have got things under control, but few things have gone bad’. I told her, ‘It is fine, don’t worry’ and asked her if she has watched that particular scene. But she hadn’t seen it. So I told her, ‘What great fun it was to shoot that scene. Go and watch it’."

"Everyone gets excited about bigger things that how they will get that award or these rewards but woh toh hona hi hai but if you can find excitement in small things, it lasts longer," continued the actor.

Talking about his routine, Shah Rukh concluded, "After a film is done, I start all over again with the same excitement. Boredom hasn’t set until now, and I find things as thrilling [as I used to]. I’m shocked about it, too. My family also asks me, ‘Don't you get tired sometimes?’ and a few nights ago, my kids were like, ‘Papa is just different’."
