Shah Rukh Khan is an iconic figure in Bollywood, known for his charm, talent, and captivating performances. In 2013, he and his wife, Gauri Khan, welcomed their youngest son, AbRam, into the world via surrogacy. Since then, the little Khan has become a paparazzi favourite, but one aspect of his name has piqued the public’s interest why is the ‘R’ in AbRam capitalized? Fortunately, Shah Rukh’s answer not only displayed his cleverness but also revealed a deeper meaning behind his son’s name.
Shah Rukh Khan on AbRam’s capital ‘R’
When a fan inquired about the capital ‘R’ in AbRam’s name, Shah Rukh Khan responded with a clever and insightful response that won the hearts of many. He joked that the spelling was chosen “For the same reason that Rhythm is spelt like this.” He had also added, “His name is based on a variation of Prophet Ibrahim. And I liked the connotation that it’s kind of a secular name. We are a Hindu-Muslim family so to say, and I want my children to grow up without any difference of opinion in the name. It’s nice this way and has more universal appeal.. It sounds very nice with the name of Hindu god Ram in it.”
