Shah Rukh Khan’s one school ‘flaw’ revealed by senior Palash Sen

Dubai: Prior to becoming a renowned Bollywood figure, Shah Rukh Khan exhibited his charm, ambition, and remarkable skills during his time at St Columba’s School in Delhi, according to a conversation with singer Palash Sen. Sen, who was a year senior to Khan, shared that the actor was exceptionally popular amongst both teachers and students.

Describing Khan as "charming, ambitious, and efficient," Sen noted that the teachers held a special fondness for the aspiring star. The two friends engaged in various extracurricular activities, including sports, debating, and quizzes. However, despite Khan's all-around prowess, Sen identified one area where the future superstar fell short - singing.

In a school musical, Khan was assigned a role but lacked vocal abilities, prompting Sen to step in and provide the necessary vocals from the wings. Sen, best known for his role as the frontman of Indian rock band Euphoria, recalled the same production, joking that he was singing for Khan long before Sonu Nigam's involvement. Over the years, Sen and Khan maintained their friendship, with Sen expressing pride in his former schoolmate's accomplishments.

Khan is currently preparing for his upcoming release, King, directed by Siddharth Anand, set to release on December 24, 2026.
