This child sitting with his mother is now a famous name in Bollywood, can you recognise him? His name is...
Flipping through childhood photos is one of the most treasured memories one may have. Looking back, down memory lane and up nostalgia hill, reminiscing about the old days usually puts a smile on our faces. This is a photograph of a famous person. He used to have a close bond with his mother. Let's see who this person is. The Bollywood's King Here we are talking about none other than Shah Rukh Khan, who aspired to be an actor and, with his mother's belief in him, accomplished his dream and became the unstoppable King Khan. Fueled by his desire, he completed school, college, and the National School of Drama before ultimately stepping into the world to seize the reins and govern it. A Close Bond with Mother That Became a Pillar Shah Rukh Khan faced a tragic loss when he lost his father, Meer Taj Mohammed Khan, at just 14 years old. His mother, Lateef Fatima Khan, became his sole guardian and the center of his world, providing unwavering support as he grew up. In an interview with Stardust, SRK shared how his mother's unconditional support helped him move through life's challenges. 'My mother was always incredibly proud of me. In her eyes, I was the best, and I started to believe that. She made me feel that way. But after she passed away, I suddenly realized I wasn't the best after all. I was just a nobody. It was her biggest dream to see me on the big screen. She sacrificed so much for me, and no one else on this earth would have done as much… I was still quite young when my father died, and I didn't shed a tear then. But when my mother passed, that's when I really broke down. It was such a strange and emotional experience… I still can't fully process it… I might start crying just thinking about it…' When Shah Rukh Lost His Strongest Pillar In 1991, Shah Rukh featured on Simi Garewal's popular chat show Rendezvous with Simi Garewal, where he spoke about his mother's demise and how it broke him completely. He said, 'My mother died shortly after the release of my debut serial, Circus. In the ICU, she sat up with a blank expression on her face. She was a gorgeous woman. I told Mummy that you would be fine, and you would be okay for me. I'm going to do films. My serial (Circus) is coming soon. That night, the doctor arrived and said, 'Woh tumhari mummy ko saans chadh rahi hai, humein nahin maloom abhi kya karna hai.' He asked that I have some injections. I traveled throughout Delhi… I could not get them… I had just four and the doctor wanted twenty.'

It went beyond caring; it became harsh and I wanted to be happy. I was fast losing faith in the institution of marriage itself at that time. I always spoke of it loudly, to the shock of people. I said it on the first day I got married that I didn't want to.' Later, he once revealed how his first marriage led to his 'bankruptcy.'
