Shah Rukh Khan fans cherish seeing him on-screen and wait for the opportunity. However, the actor wins hearts always with the way he talks and inspires people through his conduct and words. SRK was present at the World Government Summit in Dubai where he spoke to journalist Richard Quest about his career and journey.
Shah Rukh opened up on the back-to-back failures he had with consecutive movies. He admitted that he had stopped connecting to his fans and knowing what they want from him. Instead he was just choosing perfection and how he can evolve as an actor. The failure of movies like ‘Fan’ and ‘Zero’ made him realise that people are expecting him to just spread love and happiness. That’s when he took a break and analysed his choices.
When asked about how he has the perseverance to keep going on and striking back despite the failure, SRK said, “When I was young, I lost my parents very early. I was a young orphan who had to work his way through it.” He further added that during his break he was spending time at home, learning to cook during the lockdown. “I made myself a little kitchen, and I started learning how to make pizzas. I learnt perseverance. Because to make the perfect round pizza, you have to first make a million square ones,” said the actor.
However, he is filled with confidence as always. When asked about not being a part of any Hollywod movie, SRK left the crowds in awe as he said, “I want to end my career, which is far from ending right now; I have a good 35 years to go. I want to make that film which the whole world likes, and then nobody on a big stage like this asks me, why haven’t you crossed over? That film should cross me over. That’s my dream.”
