Taking to the discussion forum, Reddit, a user recently shared some priceless pictures of a handwritten, autobiographical essay written by Shah Rukh Khan. With just a first glance, one is sure to be won over by the beautiful handwriting of the superstar. The actor wrote about the various facets of his life from childhood and shared a lot of special anecdotes in the text. An excerpt of the long essay can be read as:
“I had a very happy childhood as far as I remember. I was the second normal child (or so they thought) born to my parents after a 5 year age gap to my elder sister. My actions at the age of 5 years, were those of any other kid down the block- winking at girls of the Manavsthali School (don’t think any of you’ve heard of it), throwing flying kisses at aunts 6-7 times my age and dancing to the tune of ‘Chakke pe Chakka’.”

For the unversed, Shah Rukh Khan has an elder sister, Shehnaz Lalarukh Khan. Though the latter does not make many public appearances, she is taken great care of by her brother, Shah Rukh Khan and is just doted upon by her sister-in-law, Gauri Khan. However, Shehnaz has faced a terrible battle with depression post her parent’s death, and her brother, Shah Rukh has done his best efforts for her. Speaking along the same lines, SRK, in one of his previous interviews recalled his sister’s health trouble and mentioned:
“She got some deficiencies. During the making of my film Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, she was again hospitalised and they said she will not survive. I took her to Switzerland, got her treated there while I was shooting Tujhe Dekha Toh Yeh Jaana Sanam. But she hasn’t ever recovered from the loss of her father, the suddenness of him passing away. And then, it got compounded because my mother also expired 10 years later.”
