Shah Rukh Khan is one of the biggest superstars of Hindi cinema, but he too has seen some tough times! During a press conference celebrating the success of his latest movie,
Pathaan
last year, Shah Rukh Khan shared how he thought of starting a new business after his film Zero failed. Pathaan has been a huge hit, earning over Rs 500 crores globally.
Khan revealed that the pandemic gave him time to slow down and reflect.
He spent two years not working, focusing instead on his family. He enjoyed watching his children, Aryan, Suhana, and AbRam, grow up and cherished the time spent with them.

The actor explained that the pandemic had both good and bad sides. While it paused his work, it allowed him to spend more quality time with his loved ones. He also mentioned that after Zero didn’t perform well, people doubted if his films would succeed in the future. This made him consider other career options, including opening a restaurant. Khan even learned to cook Italian food, thinking it might come in handy if he decided to pursue this new venture.
Despite the challenges, Khan expressed his happiness over Pathaan’s success and credited the audience for their support. He also apologized for not engaging with the
media
earlier, acknowledging the essential role of cinema, media, and radio in his success. He thanked everyone for showing so much love to the film, even when there were potential obstacles to its release.
