What Shah Rukh said
When asked about his background and the challenges he faced early in life, Shah Rukh explained, “My parents died when I was young. My father, when I was 14. My mother, when I was 24. So I lost them in a gap of 10 years. I had nowhere to go. I had a sister with me. Just the two of us left in this world.”
‘I didn’t want my parents to feel bad’
He elaborated further, saying, “I felt one morning that maybe my parents are there somewhere… and I will meet up with them again for sure. They are stars in the sky and I will meet them once. But aren’t they worried right now? That, ‘Oh my God, what must be happening to my 24-year-old kid who has no sustenance?’ So I started working very hard, I became very determined to be successful because I didn’t want my parents to feel bad that they have not fended for me. It is a very strange way to look at things… I will become successful and turn around and say ‘I am doing good! Don’t feel guilty you died early.’ I will feel very guilty if I died early.”
He also spoke about how this determination has now translated into his role as a father, saying, “Our parents must be missing us… Now I am determined for my children… in a good way. That their lives should be healthy, they should be happy. All three of them are very beautiful, very loving and hard working.”
