Today, we got our hands on a throwback video of Shah Rukh Khan where has revealed the secret behind his name selection and why it is being written in a different manner. In interview with Aapki Adalat which was hosted by India TV, the DDLJ actor said that his father Taj Mohammed Khan had decided to write his name in two words- Shah Rukh. Hence, the actor too chose to follow the same pattern for his son AbRam’s name.

SRK further said that AbRam’s name is based on a variation of Prophet Ibrahim. “His name is based on a variation of Prophet Ibrahim. And I liked the connotation that it’s kind of a secular name. We are a Hindu-Muslim family so to say, and I want my children to grow up without any difference of opinion in the name. It’s nice this way and has more universal appeal.. It sounds very nice with the name of Hindu god Ram in it,” Shah Rukh Khan said.
