SRK on punctuality


SRK on punctuality

"Time starts when I reach where I have to be," says actor Shah Rukh Khan. And we definitely won't counter this statement since the suave actor was present at Tag Heuer's new Grand Carrera Calibre 36 RS Caliper Automatic Chronograph Ti2 launch much before any of the media could reach the venue.

Who: Shah Rukh Khan
What: At the launch of Tag Heuer's new Grand Carrera Calibre 36 RS Caliper Automatic Chronograph Ti2
Status: Right on time


"I'm not sticky with time. I don't mind waiting or making others wait. I've waited so many times for others, but there are no ego issues. I don't think anyone does it purposely, but the right thing to do is to meet the person and apologise for the delay," says Khan.

Known for his generosity, especially with gifting watches to his IPL team and also to few members on his movie sets, the actor reveals that he has an entire almari loaded with watches and yes, most of them are Tag Heuer pieces.

However, when it comes to wearing a timepiece, SRK is very specific. "I like a watch that's basic and looks a little rugged with a steel or titanium finish. I think a watch shouldn't be mistaken for jewellery I hate jewellery on men!"

According to SRK, time is a diamond to be treasured. The solution to every problem, according to the actor, is time. He believes that the biggest struggle we have is to deal with impermanence. "If I was given a chance, I would turn the clock so that the time slows when I'm with my children."

But time, tape and tide wait for no one. SRK wants to live every moment to the fullest and do everything with a lot of passion. We say, hear, hear!
