At the release function of his biography ‘Still Reading Khan’ in Mumbai, Shah Rukh Khan said he was “overwhelmed” by the importance given to him by his admirers.

Dressed in a black suit, black shirt, a light brown tie and his stubble shaved off, SRK looked his dapperly best as he released the 460-page coffee table book written by Mushtaq Sheikh.

Sheikh is SRK's close friend and a television scriptwriter.

The book, priced at Rs. 3000, is the pictorial account of SRK’s journey from an anonymous Delhiite to the superstar of Hindi film industry.

At the book launch function on Wednesday, Mushtaq Sheikh said many books ought to be written about SRK in order to do justice to his achievement and status. Sheikh said his book provides a glimpse into the superstar’s life.

“It (the book) has lots of visuals, glamour, emotions, drama, laughter and much more that any SRK fan would thirst for,” he said.

To celebrate the book’s release, prominent Bollywood directors like Karan Johar , Farhan Akhtar , Farah Khan and Aziz Mirza came on stage to congratulate Shah Rukh and cut a cake.

SRK was visibly overwhelmed by the adulation showered on him.

“I wish my parents were alive to see how much importance is given to me. It is quite overwhelming. I am embarrassed about this,” Shah Rukh said.

A short film on SRK’s early days as an actor was also screened at the function.

SRK got nostalgic after watching the film and said that the best part in it were the scenes of his old house in Delhi that brought back memories of his parents.
