The 49-year-old actor, who has three children - Aryan, Suhana and AbRam - with wife Gauri, said like any concerned parent he wants his kids to finish their studies first.
"My children are too young to decide on becoming actors. They have to study, finish their studies first. I am very clear about it and they are very clear about it," Shah Rukh said.
The "Happy New Year" star said it is up to his kids to decide on their career path and they don't have to necessarily become an actor like him.
"At this point of time there is no talk of AbRam, Aryan or Suhana to become actors... They have to study first," said the actor, who was in the capital for the launch of real estate company Mahagun's new luxury housing 'The M Collection'.
Shah Rukh was recently in Kolkata along with his children to attend the opening IPL match played between his team Kolkata Knight Riders and Mumbai Indians.
"My little one shows interest in everything I take him to. Poor guy doesn't understand much. We all thought he would go off to sleep but we were very surprised. He was up till 2am. He was really enjoying and also learned two new words, 'yay' and 'KKR'," the actor said.
