(12) Shah Rukh Khan Story

Shah Rukh stopped writing poems after Meer's death. He lost motivation without father pleasantly recording his work. However, Shah Rukh could eventually manage to get over the loss of father while Shehnaz never could. He could get by mainly because of the presence of one exceptional woman, mother Fatima.

Meer's medication literary emptied the family's humble savings. Fatima continued to work day and night to make ends meet. What's exceptional about Fatima is that she kept the seemingly hard life enjoyable in a lighthearted manner.

Aunt Fatima was charming, mad and cheerful. Eccentric, energetic and always relaxed. She laughed, joked and worked hard. (SRK's old friend Divya)

She doted on Shah Rukh and by all means worked hard in order not to let him feel inferior being fatherless. She was willing to do anything for her son. Later when Shah Rukh wanted a car to drive to collage, she worked hard to make sure a car to be delivered before he entered the collage. It must have been expensive for a middle class household to own a car back then, though Fatima wanted to give Shah Rukh whatever he wished to have. It shows contrast to Meer's attitude toward materials in life.

Another thing which supported Shah Rukh's recovery was his school life at Saint Columba's. He was, as very much like he is now, energetic, flamboyant and hard working. He did great in academic subjects as well as sports because he hated to lose in any field as he does now. He was especially into sports and was a captain of soccer, cricket and hockey teams. In a boys' school and three most popular sports among boys, how a single student could be the captain of all three clubs is hard to comprehend. But apparently, Shah Rukh was such student. His body is small unlike his father but he has extraordinary reflexes. He was especially great at hockey and he could hit the goal from anywhere in the field. He was dreaming to become a representative athlete for the country.

If SRK steps into a time machine?

In this interview, he looks so exhausted. But when it comes to Old Hindi films, he is all smile. He must have a lot of good memories with his mother on old films.

2:56
Q. If you are to step into a time machine, which actress would you like to romance in Bollywood?

3:05

Lots of them. I think Madhubala. I think she's gorgeous, beautiful. Saira Banu, my all time favorite. Saira Banu ji."

3:21

And Rekha ji. You know I'd like to go and romance with her. Or whatever chance I got in terms of the role of acting with her.

I'll go and take some time machine and do one of the songs. "Pehle De Do Mera Paanch Rupaiya Baarah Anna" with Madhubala. I'd like to do that one, yeah.　

Here is the tune he'd like to do with Madhubala,

The song is from the film ”Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi ”. It was released in 1958 when SRK was not even born. Mommy's influence is huge on him..Saira Banu's bath songwas nice too. But this one is cute. I love singing, listening and watching retro filmy songs. Love the part "Panchee rupayaa bhala anaaa ahahaha". Sounds like yodel.

The hero of the film is Kishor Kumar. Retro filmy song lovers should know his name as a fantastic play back singer, You can tell that he was a great actor too. His move tells me what SRK' studied when he does "Dhoom Taana" in Om shanti Om.

From 6:05, SRK and Rani are dancing to this song at Kishor Kumar's tribute concert. Enjoy!

I love classic Hindi films. However, there are too many films to choose good ones. I don't know what I should watch. I am trying to follow what SRK mentions. I watched "Hum Dono (1961)" for he sang the song "Abhi Naa Jao" and I enjoyed the film very much. I wouldn't have boring life when I'm older. A lot of Hindi films to watch. I'm looking forward to retirement.
