Shah Rukh opens up on dealing with failure: 'I cry in my bathroom, do not show it to anyone'
Shah Rukh Khan is enjoying the tremendous success which he got last year with all his movies when he made his comeback in theatres after 4 years. The actor had gone through a lean phase in his career but came back with a bang and has continued to remain quite positive. The actor who's known to make rare appearances was spotted at a Summit in Dubai where he spoke about his career and things about himself.
At the Global Freight Summit in Dubai, SRK was asked about how he deals with failures. When asked if he is critical of his own work and gets affected by failure, he said, "I hate feeling this and then I cry a lot in my bathroom. I do not show it to anyone. You have to believe that the world is not against you. Your film did not go wrong because of you or because the world is conspiring against you. You have to believe that you made it badly. Then you have to move on."
He further added what people should think about during this time. "When you fail, you should not believe that your product or service or job went wrong. Maybe you just misunderstood the ecosystem you were working in. You have to understand how people are reacting. If I cannot elicit an emotion from the people I cater to, then my product is not going to work how wonderful it may be," said Shah Rukh.
The 'Pathaan' actor has his own way of dealing with it. He expressed, "There are moments of despair but there are moments which say, ‘shut up, get up and get on with it’. You have to do it because the world is not against you. You should not believe that things are going wrong only for you. Life moves on. Life does what it does. You cannot start blaming life for what it does."
