Superstar Shah Rukh Khan, a doting father, feels the safest when his children "envelope" him with their hugs.

The actor, who has been busy with the promotions of his "Chennai Express", releasing Friday, has a son named Aryan, and a daughter named Suhana. He also recently announced the birth of his surrogate son AbRam.

On Thursday afternoon, SRK took to Twitter to post: "Awake now. Need to surround myself by love... think will get the kids to come and envelope me with their hugs. The best safety blankets."

Shah Rukh's hopes from "Chennai Express" are high. The film, directed by Rohit Shetty, also stars Deepika Padukone.
