Tryst with depression

Shehnaz Lalarukh Khan, aged 58, went into depression post the death of her father. She was out of city when her father passed away due to cancer. This was in the year 1981.

Incident that changed her life

The moment she saw her father's body, she fell unconscious. Post this tragic incident, she started falling ill quite often.

Kickstarts treatment!

In an interview once, SRK had revealed that his sister battled with depression for two years after the demise of their father. During the time of 'Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge', she had bouts of depression again, so he took her to Switzerland for treatment.

Path to recovery!

SRK further stated that during the shooting of the song 'Tujhe dekha toh ye jaana sanam' from the movie, his sister was receiving treatment at a nearby hospital. After the treatment, her condition got better, but she couldn't recover completely.

Happy ending!

So, being a doting and responsible brother, Shah Rukh Khan took up her responsibility and now she stays with him. However, she has purposely chosen to stay away from the media glare, hence, you will not spot her at any events or parties.
