"Will be fun, will interact with people at different stops," Shah Rukh Khan had said before leaving on his train journey .


Shah Rukh Khan had last boarded a train to Mumbai from Delhi as a young budding artiste with starry dreams, and on Monday got onto a train to Delhi once again -- this time as a star to promote his film.

"I am travelling in a train after a long time. The last time I had boarded a train from Delhi to Mumbai was when I came here to make my career. And now I am again taking the train. I am excited and nervous," Shah Rukh said, leaving his home 'Mannat'.
