Shahrukh Khan is considered as one of the well-read actors and well-spoken too but there are times when stars get baffled according to circumstances and speak non-sense. Shahrukh too has also been a part of such discussions. 

Back in time when Shahrukh was invited to launch management guru Arindam Chaudhuri's new book 'Discover the Diamond in You' when he revealed his desire to become a pornstar.

"I always wanted to be a porn star. I am going to work with all the positivity and clarity to be a porn star," Shah Rukh said much to the amusement of the packed audience. And where did this inspiration arise from? "I have always been a huge fan of Sylvester Stallone who was a porn star before becoming Hollywood superstar," the actor said.

Shahrukh's statement did tickle a few funny bones but his statement went onto become one of the bizarre statements the actor has ever made that does not suit his stature. King Khan didn't stop here, he further added,  "I will take my flag and put it up in America after becoming the biggest porn star of the world."

The whole joke started when Chaudhuri while reading excerpts from his book gave an example of Stallone's determination and his journey from a porn star to becoming one of Hollywood's icons. Though he took a pot shot at himself this wasn't taken in good spirit by many.
