On being named the sexiest man on the planet, the King Khan told Eastern Eye: "Me, really? Thanks. I feel too sexy to talk to anyone now!
"I never thought I would be called a sexy guy or be put into that category. It's only because I carry myself the way I am comfortable - that is what is sexy, I think?"
Hamant Varma, Editor of Eastern Eye and founder of Sexiest Asian men list and Sexiest Asian women list said: "Shah Rukh Khan is the complete package, good actor, good dancer, good looking and a showman. He is a great ambassador for India."
