The IPL has been won by SRK’s squad twice thus far, in 2012 and 2014. Fans of KKR are hoping that the squad wins again after a 10-year absence from victory.
Shah Rukh Khan’s club has, however, occasionally found it difficult to even hold a strong standing in the IPL standings.
The Dunki star was questioned if he had ever reprimanded any of his KKR teammates during an interview in 2014. Shah Rukh Khan disclosed the tips individuals give him regarding his athletes in his response. Some even advocated for him to include MS Dhoni on his team.

Shah Rukh Khan told TellyChakkar, “Except for at Wankhede, I haven’t yelled at people. In fact, in films, a lot of things happen, but I work with low composure and with love. And these players don’t lose on purpose. People have told me things like why are you asking a particular player to bowl or why don’t I take Dhoni in my team. Then I have to explain that he is with another team (Chennai Super Kings). I have heard from my mother-in-law how a team should be and also from the panwala from whom I buy cigarettes. All this used to make me angry; I used to sit in my sister’s room and watch TV as nobody comes there; have also shed my tears there.”

He added, “I’ve seen a big guy like Chris Gayle sitting and crying away under the shower after we lost. Yes, it was disturbing and I did get angry with people who told me what to do.”
Shah Rukh Khan was asked if he has ever considered leaving his IPL squad during the same interview. Khan said that KKR would never see him go! The Pathaan star said that his team goes up and down with them. The thought of bailing out on his team never crossed his mind, and he said, “This is for keeps.”
