2023 has been very special for Shah Rukh Khan because in this year he returned to the big screen after almost 4 years and also got a lot of love from the fans. Pathan, released in January, and Jawan, released in September, left such an impression on people’s hearts that Shah Rukh Khan’s name started ringing again in Bollywood. Although his recently released film Dunki did not perform so well, people also liked this film very much. After winning the CNN News18 Indian of the Year 2023 honour, Shah Rukh Khan gave a speech that lasted about ten minutes.
Shah Rukh Khan thanks fans for supporting him
King Khan said after receiving the award, “The last four, five years have been a bit of a ride for me and my family. I am sure some of you also because of Covid and stuff. Most of my films flopped, a lot of specialists and analysts started writing my death-knell, some idiots did the same, which actually is the same thing, analysts and idiots. Not something that I really bother about. And then, at a personal level, a little bit of bothersome and unpleasant things also happened to say the least which made me learn a lesson that be quiet, be very quiet and work hard with dignity. When you think everything is good, and still know it in your heart when everything is good, suddenly out of nowhere, whoom, life may come and hit you.”
He continued, “I’d like to thank everyone here and people who are watching this on television, hoards of you who came to this year to watch my films, some of you may not have liked them but I know deep down inside, you came there to support me, and my family so I bow down to you and thank you for bringing cheer to my family, my children, my loved ones and I thank you for making me the star I am yet again.”
SRK dedicated award to his family
He further stated that he accepted the prize not for himself, but for his family, which includes wife Gauri Khan, daughter Suhana Khan, and sons Aryan and AbRam Khan, whom he believes ‘deserves a greater shout.’ While presenting his thoughts, he also quoted his famous phrase, “Picture abhi baaki hai mere dost.”
