However, when it comes to watching matches with Shahrukh Khan, Chawla hinted at a different experience. "It's not exactly a picnic watching with him," she quipped, "especially when our team isn't performing up to par. He tends to vent his frustrations at me, which I promptly redirect back to the team. So, needless to say, we might not be the ideal companions for match-watching." Chawla suggested that this dynamic might resonate with other team owners, noting that many of them are visibly on edge while their teams are in action.
