The Dunki actor admitted he had hoped to feel less breathless after quitting, but said he is still adjusting to the change.

"Mujhe laga tha ki I will not feel so breathless, but abhi bhi feel kar raha hu (I thought I wouldn't feel breathless after quitting smoking, but I still do)," Khan said, acknowledging the adjustment period. He remained optimistic, saying, "Inshallah, woh bhi theek ho jayega." (By God's grace, that will also be fine).

Khan, on Saturday, received birthday wishes from daughter, Suhana, and wife, Gauri Khan, on social media.

Suhana shared a series of throwback pictures, giving fans a glimpse into the cherished memories of Shah Rukh's personal life.

She uploaded a heartwarming collage of four vintage monochromatic snaps. The pictures showcased Shah Rukh's playful side with his kids, Aryan and Suhana. "Happy Birthday (heart emoji). Love you the most in the world," she captioned one of the images.

Gauri shared a sneak peek into the actor's birthday celebration with her, Suhana, and their close friends. "A memorable evening last night with friends and family... happy birthday," she captioned the post.
