New Delhi: Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan, who enjoys a wide fan base globally, says though he is a “fantastically confident” person, he does get “weirded out” by all the attention he gets whenever he steps out.

“Publicly, I’m fantastically confident but sometimes I get weirded out by all the attention,” Shah Rukh, who will turn 50 on November 2, told Vogue India magazine in its November 2015 issue.

“I can’t disrespect the fact that there are these people out there...not just the screaming, selfie-loving fans, but people who seem to truly love me.

“I can see it when the aunties, the mothers, and the children come. They hug me, and sometimes they start crying. I don’t know who is who...so I make it a point to meet everybody with a lot of love,” he said.
