The 48-year-old actor, who has three children -- Aryan, Suhana and AbRam -- said initially, they were conscious of having a star father but their upbringing has been such that they don't care about his fame so much.
"We have never subjected our kids to the stardom. When they were born, I was already a movie star. What has been clearly told or understood by them is that I work very hard.
"Initially, when I used to go to school, they felt awkward because everybody was referred to as Ramesh's father or Geeta's father -- but I was called Shah Rukh Khan. My daughter used to be a little taken aback. But they are not embarrassed of me," Shah Rukh said.
The actor said that he neither forces his children to watch his films nor do they have any idea about how much money his movies make after its release.
