Recent failures and scuffles haven't only taught Shah Rukh Khan many lessons however the superstar has also apologised for his high-handed attitude. He confesses to have learnt to simply accept both brickbats and appreciation.
“In the last five years, I'VE changed and realised I WILL also fail,” Shah Rukh told reporters Wednesday when he was asked what he has learned from failure and controversies.
“I had not faced failure for a few years and it (failure) has made me humble… you can’t get angry and say the sector is incorrect and we need to realise failure is a part of our life… failure and success don't seem to be permanent,” he added.
He was addressing a press conference at his Mannat residence here post the Kolkata Knight Riders winning the fifth edition of the Indian Premier League against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) Sund. SRK co-owns Knight Riders.
In the hot past, Shah Rukh’s image of an affable and disciplined star got a blow as a result of series of events. First, his home production “RA.One” didn't get a favorable response on the box office; he got right into a brawl with director Shirish Kunder after which was enthusiastic about a scuffle with security personnel and Mumbai Cricket Association officials on the Wankhede Stadium that saw him being banned for 5 years from entering the ground.
But finally he appears to be out of that gloom, way to KKR triumphing and winning the IPL title. SRK co-owns the team with actress Juhi Chawla and her businessman husband Jai Mehta.
“I abused but I had a reason behind it…how much angry or disturbed you are, you can't subject it for your audience or children…I don’t think I'M a task model…,” Shah Rukh told reporters Wednesday when he was asked concerning the run-in at Wankhede with the protection staff and MCA officials May 16.
“Saal ke andar ek jhagda aur do films kaafi hai (within a year a brawl and two films is enough)…I was very ashamed when my wife and kids explained to me that I shouldn’t have behaved in that way…I realised, mere bache itne bade ho gaye hain ki muje samjha rahe hain (my children have grown such a lot that they're advising me), I USED TO BE ashamed,” he added. – IANS
