It is a given fact that neither every film can be a hit, nor every film would be liked by the audience. In every actor’s life, there are times when he will experience failure, but then, it’s a challenge to embrace failure and move on. That’s what Shah Rukh Khan has been doing for years. Though the King Khan has a huge lists of hits filed in his name, there are a few flops too that enlist in his filmography. He of course gets disturbed when his films don’t do well at box office, but it does not bring about a reduction in the enthusiasm he works with.
In his recent interview, SRK opened up about how a failed film makes him feel sad and lonely.“It kills me! I get distraught, extremely disturbed, very sad and very lonely. And that’s the offshoot of being a star. That you can’t share it with anyone, you can’t explain it to anyone else. At the end of it all, it’s just a film for everyone else. For me, it’s a part of my life which has got smashed away to completely been disregarded by the people who love me the most and who have made the star I am. So it destroys you completely so you shack up somewhere within yourself. But you do come out in a tuxedo, attend a party and still smile,” he exclaimed.

Later he also said that he loves appreciation. He said, “See I’m an actor, I like to be applauded. I’m an actor, I want to be cheered. I’m an actor and I want to be accepted. And I know, as an actor who’s been there for 25 years, it’s not going to happen every time with every character. But this is beyond a character. Even for Alia, if I may so. It’s just a very raw expression of feelings which is captured in a beautiful world – real or unreal – it doesn’t make a difference. Will you ever find a Jehangir Khan? Will your life get okay like Kaira’s or not? That’s a question that still remains and that’s how the film ends also.”
