Throwback To The Time When Shah Rukh Khan Poured His Heart Out About Parents’ Death And Acting Filling Up The Void In His Life
Shah Rukh Khan, the man who everyone looks up to for inspiration, had once mentioned the death of his parents being the biggest loss of his life. Co-star of his few films, actress Rani Mukerji during the promotion of her movie, Hickhi was seen quizzing her industry pals about their hiccups in life and SRK was one of the guests. That’s when he had poured his heart out and spoken about his parents’ death. Losing his parents at a very early age, he mentioned acting filling up the void of his parents’ absence in his life.

The superstar mentioned losing his father at 15 and his mother at 26. He said, “My greatest ‘Hichki moment’ is the death of my parents. I was 15 when my father passed away and 26 when my mother passed away. It was very sad for us. The empty house without my parents used to come to bite us (Shah Rukh and his sister Shehnaz Lalarukh Khan). The loneliness, pain and sadness of the loss of both my parents, could have been overwhelming enough to take over my life wholly.”

Further spilling the beans about how he dealt with their death, he confessed filling up the void in his life with acting and giving acting a place in his life to let out his feelings. “I decided to overcome this Hichki moment by letting acting fill up my entire life. My parents went away suddenly. We got to know they had cancer and within two and a half months, they were gone. I didn’t know what to do. I just felt one night, while at their mazaar that I should fill this void with something. I got a fortunate break in films. For me, acting is not work but a place to vent out my feelings,” said SRK.

He also shares death being a hiccup and there is no coming back from it, further he says, “I always say this that one morning when I wake up, I will realise that I have spent all these emotions and now have nothing more to give (as an actor). Otherwise, death is a hiccup from which there is no coming back. I realised that and therefore, overcame it by giving my work, my all.” ALSO READ: Shah Rukh Khan Dashes Off To A Secret Getaway; Gets Snapped Concealing His Face In An Olive Green Hoodie With Mask
