Bollywood Badshah Shah Rukh Khan launched a biography on him written by 'Kuchh Meetha ho Jaye' director Samar Khan. Speaking at the event, the actor shared his beautiful journey of 25 years as a simple guy from Delhi to the King of Romance he is today. "An actor is just like water... he should just adapt the colour and shape. I believe the art is important, the artist is not. The art remains and not the artist and as an actor, I feel if I think like that I can work with some amount of purity. The purity will be retained if I believe that my art is important than myself," he said.
"Twenty-five years in the film industry was big dream for a boy who came from Delhi all those years ago. These years have been full of excitement, hard work and various ups and downs and this book is a tribute to all these filmmakers who believed in me and my dreams. I am extremely thankful to all my fans who have made me who I am today." He also added, "I was an odd-looking guy, I was not from a film background, I spoke too fast but I am thankful all the filmmakers and those friends who gave me an opportunity. So for me if a newcomer comes I have been trained by people like these to respect the newcomer and love them." Titled '25 Years of a Life', the book captures several interesting incidents from Khan's raging journey in the industry.
Samar said, "This book was the perfect chance for me to tell the SRK story from a different lens. I would like to thank everyone involved who has made this dream project a reality." Khan even took to Twitter to thank the writer, saying, "Thk u @samarmumbaikhan this is so special. The book is lovely & my lil 1 is happy to c so many papas #25yearsofalife".
