Shah Rukh Khan has done it once more. At TED 2017, the performer conveyed his lady TED Talk and bound his motivational and helpful words with a squeeze of giggling, jokes, and mockery. The performer was conveying his first-since forever TED Talk in Vancouver, Canada on Thursday. What’s more, he cleared out the gathering of people enchanted.
Introducing himself as a man who offers dreams and sells love to a large number of individuals, Shah Rukh in his trademark style talked like a self-fixated performing artist without feeling remorseful about it. “I’ve been made to understand there are lots of you here who have never seen my work, and I feel really sad for you,” said Shah Rukh and left the audience in splits with his wit. Adding to it, the Raees actor said, “That doesn’t take away from the fact that I’m completely self-obsessed, as a movie star should be.”

“We had expected an expansion of ideas and dreams; we had not bargained for the enclosure of judgment.” @iamsrk on the Internet #TED2017

“Humanity is a lot like me. It’s an aging movie star, grappling with all the newness, wondering whether she got it right.” @iamsrk #TED2017

Likewise, the on-screen character contrasted humankind with himself — a maturing on-screen character attempting to adjust to changes. “Humanity is a lot like me, it’s an ageing movie star, grappling with all the newness around it, wondering whether it got it right in the first place and still trying to find a way to keep on shining regardless,” opined SRK. Referring to the night when he lost his father at the age of 14, Shah Rukh said, “From that night onwards, much akin to humanity in its adolescence, I learned the crude tools of survival.”
