King Khan gives a supple reply to Amir Khan

Aamir Khan must be repenting about his slip of tongue, for making a comment against the King Khan, SRK. Aamir Khan of late remarked that SRK was next to him by No.2, hence he got a clever and sharp reaction from the King Khan himself, who described it as a great compliment.

When the Badshah was asked about his opinion, to be categorized as number two, SRK whispered: I just want to tell you, Aamir is a dear friend of mine and I consider it a compliment for him, oops sorry, compliment for me, that was a genuine slip of tongue. It is indeed a great compliment that he at least considers me second to him.” 

King Khan also exposed that he can’t say anything against Aamir as he doesn’t want to upset his wife Gauri Khan , who is  a great fan of  Aamir, “I and Aamir are completely opposite persons. He is an intelligent, intellectual person whereas I am more of an instinctive man. He does more of the thinking and I do more of the acting.” 

SRK also made known that since both of them are ‘Khans’ they have great regard for each other, “We are very good friends and we both have a good sense of humour. I know his jokes and he knows mine. And, he is hundred per cent No. 1.” 

The King Khan ended it up on a humorous note and said, “I said I love K-K-K-K-K-Kiran and he really loves K-K-K-K-K-Kiran.”

That’s the way, King Khan, as a down to earth person, you have shown Amir his line of attack and that too in a supple way.

  • . Rub potatoes with butter before baking to improve the taste.
  • To remove the bitter taste of eggplants, soak them in salted water. Then drain and cook as desired.
  • Lettuce will look fresh, soak in ice water for 30 minutes and adding a little lemon juice to the water.

  • To whip cream, pour the measured quantity into a bowl and chill. Then whisk.
  • When separating egg whites (for a soufflé), break one egg at a time in a small container. This is to ensure that no egg yolk goes in.
