When a fan inquired about the capital ‘R’ in AbRam’s name, Shah Rukh Khan responded with a clever and insightful response that won the hearts of many. He joked that the spelling was chosen “For the same reason that Rhythm is spelt like this.” He had also added, “His name is based on a variation of Prophet Ibrahim. And I liked the connotation that it’s kind of a secular name. We are a Hindu-Muslim family so to say, and I want my children to grow up without any difference of opinion in the name. It’s nice this way and has more universal appeal.. It sounds very nice with the name of Hindu god Ram in it.”

What’s the significance of the name AbRam?

Shah Rukh revealed that AbRam’s name was inspired by a variant of the prophet Ibrahim’s name. This choice had a special meaning for the Khan family because it reflected their secular identity. With a Hindu-Muslim heritage, Shah Rukh and Gauri wanted their children to grow up without any divisions or conflicts caused by their names. They hoped to foster harmony and unity within their family by choosing a name like AbRam. Shah Rukh also expressed admiration for the name’s beautiful resemblance to the Hindu god Ram. 

While AbRam continues to draw attention with his adorable appearances whenever he is in front of the camera.

On the work front, his film “Pathaan” was a huge success, shattering box office records and leaving a lasting impression on audiences. Looking ahead, Shah Rukh is preparing for his upcoming projects, “Jawan” and “Dunki,” which promise enthralling stories that will captivate moviegoers once more.
