<p>Having a globally recognised father may not be very easy for kids to deal with but Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan says his stardom has never had a negative impact on his children.<br /><br /></p>.<p>The 48-year-old actor, who has three children -- Aryan, Suhana and AbRam-- said in the beginning they were conscious of having a star father but their upbringing has been such that they don't care about his fame so much.<br /><br />"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.<br />"Initially, yes 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 no they are not embarrassed of me," Shah Rukh said.<br /><br />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.<br /><br />"My son Aryan never comes for my shows or shootings. My children have been brought up in such a way that whatever I do outside of our house is not something they have to necessarily keep a tab on.<br /><br />"They don't know the collection. Maybe after a few days my daughter will ask me if the film did well. It is not necessary for them to watch the film just because I star in it. My daughter watched my last film 'Chennai Express' a week an a half after its release and that too because her friends wanted to watch it at home. My son hasn't seen it yet," he said.<br /><br />Shah Rukh, who is awaiting the release of his upcoming Diwali release 'Happy New Year', was recently in London, where his 16-year-old son currently studies, for a promotional tour for the film.<br /><br />The actor said Aryan's teachers had come to see the concert. "When I was doing a show in London, all of Aryan's teachers came to see me. I had invited them and Aryan as well."<br />Shah Rukh, who is seen sporting an eight-pack abs for the Farah Khan-directed film, said his son loves to keep fit.<br /><br />"Aryan came to the gym and I actually I worked out the way he does as I like the way his body is. He also plays rugby and loves to be fit," he said.<br /><br />'Happy New Year', which also star Deepika Padukone, Abhishek Bachchan, Boman Irani, Sonu Sood and Vivaan Shah, releases on October 24.</p>
