On His 44th birthday Shah Rukh says, “’I feel 25”
On Monday Nov 2, Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan celebrated his 44th birthday. Sharing his happiness with his fans Shah Rukh said that he still feels as if he is only 25.
Talking to the reporters on his birthday the superstar humbly said, “I have been in my 40s since a few years now and I gracefully accept the age. But honestly, I feel like I am just 25 or 26 except for the physical problems I’ve had in my past year.”
Along with career and many hits, Shah Rukh is still eager to work and said “I am a workaholic, but in the last year I couldn’t do much due to my shoulder problem, my team Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) didn’t do too well and I shot for just one film ‘My Name Is Khan’. My injury also pulled me down in terms of my endorsements but I had time to introspect and spend a quieter time at home and with my children.
Talking about his looks and growing age effect on him, Shah Rukh answered reporters in his usual witty style that, “Maybe I look older, but then when I look younger, people say I get plastic surgeries done to my face. When I look old, they say I am over and done with. But the fact is that when I sleep well, I look young and when I don’t get enough sleep, I look old.”
After an arthroscopic surgery for severe pain in his left shoulder in February Shah Rukh was forced take a break for complete recovery. But now he is ready and totally fit to come back, he told reporters that, “I feel more energetic and happy now and totally ready for a comeback with many projects in the next two years after this one year break.”
Apart from being an actor SRK also works for social causes, on his birthday he said that, he wants to help society by “doing something for youngsters, underprivileged girls and talk to 16- 17-year-old children who are on the threshold of voting for the government and lead the world forward”.
He also said that “I don’t know whether I want to join an NGO or something of the likes, but in my heart, I have this strong feeling that I want to give something back to society.”
Now Shah Rukh is once again ready to entertain his fans with his two upcoming movies- “My Name Is Khan”, and “Happy New Year”.
