The Archies actress Suhana Khan is celebrating her 24th birthday today, prompting a reflection on the seven rules her father, Shah Rukh Khan, once outlined for her future boyfriend.
Suhana Khan, daughter of Bollywood’s Baadshah Shah Rukh Khan, made her much-anticipated acting debut in 2023. The affectionate bond shared between the father-daughter duo often delights fans on social media platforms.
Today, May 22nd, as Suhana marks her 24th birthday, it’s a fitting moment to recall the instance when SRK set forth seven guidelines for her potential beau.
Shah Rukh Khan’s rules for the guy wanting to date his daughter Suhana Khan
In a past interview with Femina magazine, Shah Rukh Khan shared seven rules for his cherished daughter Suhana Khan’s prospective boyfriend, revealing his protective nature towards his beloved princess.
The rules were as follows: “1. Get a job. 2. Understand I don’t like you. 3. I’m everywhere. 4. Get a lawyer. 5. She’s my princess, not your conquest. 6. I don’t mind going back to jail. 7. Whatever you do to her, I will do to you.”
However, in a later appearance on NDTV Spotlight, Shah Rukh referred to these rules as “false bravado,” acknowledging the inevitability of accepting his daughter’s feelings for someone without interference.
About Suhana Khan’s debut with The Archies
Suhana Khan made her acting debut with “The Archies,” a teen musical comedy directed by Zoya Akhtar. In the film, Suhana portrayed the role of the spirited Veronica Lodge, set in the fictional town of Riverdale. This Indian adaptation of the renowned Archie comics premiered on Netflix on December 7, 2023.
The stellar cast also included Agastya Nanda, Khushi Kapoor, Mihir Ahuja, Vedang Raina, Yuvraj Menda, and Aditi ‘Dot’ Saigal.
Before the film’s release, Shah Rukh Khan extended warm wishes to the entire cast and crew. He shared on Instagram, “A contemporary subject with timeless characters #TheArchies… immersed in a world that is quite fable-like. Zoya has infused such an innocent and pristine quality into the film… perhaps akin to how our world could be with a more conscientious approach to the environment. Best wishes to the entire team involved in this delightful and meaningful film!”
Suhana Khan’s personal and professional front
Recently, Suhana Khan has been seen accompanying her father and younger brother, AbRam Khan, to the Indian Premier League matches, passionately cheering for the Kolkata Knight Riders, the team co-owned by SRK.

As for her upcoming project, Suhana is gearing up to collaborate with Shah Rukh in an action-packed thriller titled “King,” to be directed by Sujoy Ghosh. Earlier, Pinkvilla exclusively reported details about SRK’s role in the film.
A source close to the project disclosed, “Shah Rukh Khan is keen on delivering films that resonate with the audience and understands their desire to see him in complex roles. ‘King’ is his passion project, and he’s been meticulously involved in all aspects of the film’s development alongside Siddharth Anand and Sujoy Ghosh. Together, they have crafted a character for SRK in ‘King’ that exudes attitude, swag, and intriguing shades of gray.”
