Shah Rukh calls himself semi-orphan

In the clip, Shah Rukh said, “If I was to not be humble and say, ‘Hann meri hi kahaani aisi hai’ (My story is also like this)’ then it could fit in. Technically speaking, anyone who doesn’t have parents is an orphan. I did lose my parents nearly in youth, so I’m a semi-orphan.”

Shah Rukh says he is an outsider

He continued, “It’s the story of an outsider. No family of mine has been in the business of filmmaking. I came from Delhi to Mumbai, so main outsider bhi hoon (I’m an outsider as well). It’s the story of the King. So, yeah, I’m a king.”

Shah Rukh opens up about Mufasa

Shah Rukh also spoke about Mufasa. He said, “I think it’s a very interesting story about sacrifice, friendship, and loyalty. There have been lots of emotions while I was dubbing the film. I thought, ‘What a nice person, what a great character. Kitna accha human being sher hai (what a nice human being lion)’.”
