<p>Superstar Shah Rukh Khan, a doting father to three, says he is planning to quit smoking and drinking and adopt a healthier lifestyle to enable himself spend more time with his children.<br /><br />The 50-year-old Bollywood star's remark came during a session at the second day of the India Today Conclave here. Asked if being an old parent he feared not getting enough time to spend with AbRam, his four-year-old son, he says, "Yes, that's an issue, that thought comes in my head, it came last night. One way to look at it is to keep yourself healthy.<br /><br />"The presence of a little child at the age of 50, it is a good thing. It makes me come alive, it makes me see innocence and love in a different way," he said. The "My Name is Khan" star says he wants to spend the next 20-25 years of his life with his kids and so he has been maintaining a healthy lifestyle.<br /><br />"Having said that, will I be there to do the same thing that I did with my older kids? Yes, that is a worry. So that keeps you smoking less, drinking less, exercising more. I am planning to give up all (smoking, drinking, etc) and try to be healthier and happier," he said.<br /><br />Shah Rukh was 15 years old when his parents passed away and he says he holds that against them. "I don't want my children to hold that against me that I was not there," he says.<br /><br />On a lighter note, the "Dilwale" star says he wants to embarrass his kids and be around hounding them for a long time. "I want to be there to give them advice completely out of context and irrelevant. I want to find out about their personal lives when they are hating me for doing so. I want to be cumbersome and troublesome to my children. So I should work towards it and get healthy," he says.<br /><br />"I am working with younger girls just to keep up with my children. I am not doing it out of any mid-life crisis. I am only doing it to make myself feel younger and get in touch with the younger me," he adds.</p>
