• "I have been working for almost 20 years and have achieved success. It was high time I faced failure. In the last five years I have changed and realised that I can also fail. Success is not a good teacher, failure makes you humble. Success and failure are both part of life. Both are not permanent," he said.
• Shah Rukh put the success of his team down to hard work by the team members and said that instead of celebrating the victory he and co-owners Jay Mehta and Juhi Chawla watched the match repeatedly after it was over.

• "Everytime my daughter Suhana came to watch the match we won and this time I was hoping we win. I have always told my children hard work pays off. The team and everyone has been working hard for three-four years and it has paid off. I was watching the match again and again with Juhi and Jay and everyone thought we were partying."
• When asked about model Poonam Pandey posting a nude picture of herself on twitter to celebrate KKR's win, SRK said, "Everyone has their own way of expressing happiness. I don't think I should comment on this. I am thankful to everyone who celebrated."
