My baby nephew arrives tomorrow, so to prepare I am going to look at a lot of babies and Shahrukh and see how he does things.

I can’t exactly ask you to choose between babies, but maybe choose between which photo best models good baby manners? Which version of Shahrukh should I try to be when hanging out with my 10 week old nephew?

Boy, this little peanut didn’t fall far from the….peanut plant.
My theory of “aunting,” – when the kid gets too rambunctious, hand him off to his parents. That’s the best thing about being an aunt. You get to give the kid back.

I think this kid is always too rambunctious? He seems to go no more than 5 minutes between crying jags.

At ten weeks definitely #4. Baby gets to look at you and ponder who this lady is, but still nice head support and a hand in the seat position ready for dance moves as needed.

Isn’t this lady in #4 the one who was a co creator or planet srk or some such? I saw this video (could be between 2010-1012 though that’s just a guess) where he visits this fan in a wheelchair and she nearly has an emotional breakdown? She looks just like her.
PS: Found the video

It’s Weda from the Netherlands who was a member of the disfunct planetsrk. She first met ShahRukh at a concert, then at Mannat.(with Wafa, the founder of planetsrk). She kept in contact through Karuna, then Pooja.
So, when ShahRukh was shooting in the Netherlands for JHMS, they briefly met again.

Thank you Claudia. That’s really cool that he invited them to Mannat. Not many stars of his caliber would do such a thing.

Yes. The way, he focusses on her and his patience and kindness are something another friend of mine also got to know.
She was told to come to Mumbai from a Los Angeles journalist working for a TV Channel there and befriended with Wafa, the planetsrk founder. She was scheduled for an interview with ShahRukh, so this was a good opportunity to combine this.
Here is a bit more info about Weda.:

Claudia, thank you so much for the additional information and link. You’re awesome! I’m a little saddened that planetsrk and srkpagali are both defunct and I never got to see them in action given that I learned about SRK long after they both shut down. I hope something like these will pop up again sometime .

You’re welcome 🙂
I got to know Weda through the planet and then was at her home in Amsterdam when being in Rotterdam for the Temptation Reloaded in 2008. We kept in touch for a while. Btw, she wrote a book about all this.
I’m especially sad about the disfunct srk.pagali. They did a great work with subtitling but the gallery seems to be deleted. As for the planet, at least, one can still do research there.

Margaret, as ShahRukh adapts to the respective situation, I have no other choice as #4 as it is the only with a kind of interaction with a baby. And I support the idea of dancing around…he may be so astonished that he keeps mum for a while listening to the music (put ShahRukh on!) and your smooth dancing 🙂

forgot the word “feeling”… your smooth dancing

His whole life seems to veer between astonishment and anger. But then, he has only been in the world for 81 days, there is lots to be astonished and angry at.

I’d like to think he takes after his aunt the film critic. Lots of strong opinions which he generously shares with the world. The only problem is he doesn’t have a website yet so he has limited communication options

Get him a website! Let him vent his ire on the world instead of screaming! This is a brilliant childcare technique that I can’t believe no one has tried before.

I love number 5. I remember that, they were walking around the ground after the cricket. Abram has grown up assuming it’s the most natural thing in the world that thousands of people around you are cheering and waving at you.

I really want AbRam to grow up and become friends with the new British royals because it feels like they would have that in common.
