I have never done anything for liking or love of money says Shah Rukh Khan
Shah Rukh Khan attended launch of TED Talks – India Nayi Soch along with Uday Shankar, CEO of Star India on Thursday in Mumbai. While interacting with media, Shah Rukh stated that he never done anything for liking or love of money.
Shah Rukh Khan while addressing with event stated that this show, he has done with lot of heart, so when asked by reporter that now money is not the driving force in his life, to that, Shah Rukh said, “No. It never has and it never will. I am very well to do. God has been kind to me in every aspect of my life be it professionally, financially or emotionally. I have never ever done anything for the love of money. I feel, if you do something that you desire or want to do, then one of thing that surely follows is money. It’s the least important pegs you should try to fill in, when you try to do something as your job, love or hobby. I say this being a lower-middle class boy whose had much share of his financial benefits the work I do that I have never ever imagined in wildest of my dreams. People believe that I am entrepreneur or businessman but I have never done anything for liking or love of money. I did this show because it’s perhaps the closest thing to my heart. I say it because I genuinely believe in it. It is important for me that this show gets loved by everyone without comparisons with any other shows”
TED Talks is considered as intense, intellectual and psychological show, so when asked Shah Rukh what kind of target audience they looking at, Shah Rukh said, “We always underrate our audience. I feel this is unreasonable to say that people are not ready to accept. If you are put it out in the right spirit anything that is good, intellectual, entertaining, scientific and emotional, then I feel that’s what audience wants. We as media people, thinkers or innovators have not done enough to bring forth to the audience what they are waiting for. I think all kind of audience especially youngster will really like what we have tried to present in TED talks. When we say it’s intense, psychological show then I feel our lives are that, there is always craving in all our heart, all we need is someone to give it to us so hopefully we will be able to manage that”
