Shah Rukh Khan’s Painful Journey

Shah Rukh Khan’s loss of his parents and his sister Shehnaz’s health problems have shaped him.

Sister’s Illness Disrupted DDLJ Shoot

The Shah Rukh Khan, who is a superstar today, is no stranger to the pain of his past. In an old interview, SRK spoke about the time when he was shooting for DDLJ.

His sister, Shehnaz Lalarukh Khan, suddenly fell ill. Doctors had even said she wouldn’t survive.

SRK took her to Switzerland for treatment, and it was there that the song ‘Tujhe Dekha To…’ was also shot. His sister could never come to terms with the trauma of losing their parents.

“We Were Both Orphans,” SRK Said

SRK described himself and his sister as “orphans.” His sister was very intelligent – ​​she had studied up to MA.LLB – but without her parents, she couldn’t cope with life.

SRK revealed that after their parents’ death, his sister completely changed – she neither spoke nor cried, she just remained silent. Today she is better, but that phase was very tough for SRK.

Created “False Bravado” to Hide the Pain

To escape his pain, SRK found a way – he keeps himself busy working all the time. He admitted that his public image of being fun-loving and boisterous is a kind of “false bravado.”

Internally, he can’t remain as simple and innocent as his sister, because he fears that if he becomes like that, he too will break down from the pain of life.

So he laughs, cracks jokes, to avoid depression. ### Work is the Cure, Work is the Prayer

SRK honestly stated, “I act to avoid depression.” He says that if he didn’t work so much, he might have also fallen victim to depression.

Today, he is such a big superstar and a billionaire, but these stories from his life show that even behind success, there can be a story of tears.

But his courage and hard work have kept him moving forward to this day.
