Everyone think that the Bollywood Stars are lucky and born with a silver spoon, but do you know that they have had also a struggling life. The Bollywood stars you see today are not just actors to be inspired from, but people can learn life lessons from!!!

This is the story of a man who once very confidently told his teacher that he wanted to be a Bollywood actor in his school days, while the rest of the class laughed at him. This is the story of a man who had to face rejections again and again because of his messy look and unruly hair i.e.”

Shahrukh Khan”(King Khan)

Shahrukh Khan's family was shattered when his father died of cancer. His mother passed away few years later, leaving his sister in a state of depression. A young Shahrukh took to manage a restaurant in Delhi as the only means of living. He also worked as a guide in a theater and earned only Rs.50.He not only saw failure but poverty too, especially after his parents’ death.

Shah Rukh stepped into Bombay in the hope of making it big in the film industry. Because he had no accommodation, he used to sleep outside a 5-star hotel in Mumbai. Some of the films which he accepted were rejected by big stars, but he took them on to avoid unemployment. Shah Rukh strongly believes that failure is a part of life, he believes that “The true road to success is not just the desire for success but fear of failure and that if you don’t enjoy and be scared of your failure you will never succeed”. He started his career with TV shows like Dil Dariya, Fauji and Circus. He was cast as a replacement to a reputed actor and hence, agreed to do the role for a small sum on money. His patience finally paid off when he won his first Filmfare Award for the Best Male Debut that year.

However, the turning point in SRK's career was when he played negative roles in Darr and Baazigar. Darr and Baazigar went on to be blockbusters. But it was only big banners like Yash Raj Films and Dharma Productions that brought out the best in Shah Rukh! He attained the status of a superstar after doing iconic movies like Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge and Kuch Kuch Hota Hai.

Since then, success has been at the Badshah's feet. He is one of the finest actors and the biggest superstar Bollywood has ever seen. Along with being the richest Bollywood actor and the second-richest actor in the world, he has been honoured by UNESCO for his charity.His hard work and determination made him the king of the Bollywood.

Which is actually so real for e.g. If we keep on thinking that nothing can be done, or ask why did it happen to me? Then surely we are falling into the trap of failure, while on the other hand if we learn from our failure, and accept it as a part of life and move on, we become strong individuals. We chase success and we want to live successful lives.

Some stories just amaze us, and his story of struggle and then beating depression is definitely an inspired one. Failure, struggles, depression are just phases of life and it’s all about your attitude towards them and this belief has kept him going.
