When it comes to candid talks no one can beat SRK. In Delhi, the Badshah Khan, at his witty best shared his "aspiration" of becoming a porn star with the press. The actor was here to launch management guru Arindam Chaudhuri's new book Discover the Diamond in You when he revealed his desire.

"I always wanted to be 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.

Shah Rukh, famous for his outrageously funny remarks did tickle the funny bone of the audience who was in for a laugh riot while listening to the actor.

And it was the icing on the cake when the actor said, "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 example of Stallone's determination and his journey from a porn star to becoming one of the Hollywood's icons.

He also referred how Akio Morita, founder of Sony, Japanese electronics giant, started the company with a dream to have his country's flag flutter high on the soils of US. "You see that is what happens with students like me who take all the wrong things from best of the examples given to them, " Shah Rukh jested.

Recalling his childhood, Khan said, 'My mother used to say that our thoughts get translated into reality and the world is a result of whatever we think. So, we must spread positive thoughts around.'

Author Arindam Chaudhari said, 'All our lives, we try to imitate someone else. If we wish to be Steve Jobs today, we want to become Bill Gates tomorrow. But this takes away the joy of the journey.' Stressing that values like patriotism and perseverance held significance in today's times, he said, 'The path to success should be treated like a reward. One may or may not be very successful but the journey is important.' '

Discover the Diamond In You compares humans to diamonds and encourages each person to look for the potential within himself and not get caught in imitating others, ' he added.

The book was launched in 14 languages and a book reading session was organised with Bollywood actress Chitrangada Singh, best remembered for her role in 'Hazaron Khwaishein Aisi'.
