The crowd, eagerly awaiting his words, reacted with enthusiasm. Shah Rukh Khan then reminisced about a past press conference where he arrived an hour late, prompting a journalist to write an entire article about the incident.
The actor acknowledged that there is often a reason for his tardiness. He humbly stated, “Aaj mere pass koi kaaran nahi hai…mera sirf ye kaaran tha ki aaplog pyaar karenge, maaf kar denge” (Today I don’t have a reason to be late…my reason is that you people will love me and forgive me).
The Heart Behind ‘Jawan’
During the event, Shah Rukh Khan delved into the core of “Jawan” and its significance. He emphasized that the film serves as a representation of the voices we all possess, the conversations we have within our homes and among friends. The film’s intention is to bring these discussions to the forefront once again.
Shah Rukh Khan further elaborated, “Almost film ke saare shor sharaabe, rang birange getups me bata sake ki actually film aapke baare me hai. Ham sabhi hai. Ham ye nahi ki ganje-wanje ho jaye. Main nahi chahunga koi takla ho” (Amidst all the colorful getups and songs, we are trying to say that this film is about you. About all of us. But I don’t want anyone to go bald).”
Shah Rukh Khan’s candidness and endearing apology resonated with the audience, demonstrating once again why he is adored by millions.
