Yes Boss clocks 26 years! From humble beginnings to the Moon: Shah Rukh Khan's life echoes 'Chand Taare'

 It's been 26 years since Yes Boss was released. Aditya Pancholi also played a crucial role in the Aziz Mirza-directed movie, which reunited the popular acting duo of Shah Rukh Khan and Juhi Chawla after three years apart. There are many cute and heartwarming sequences from Yes Boss, but what has stayed with SRK fans is the song Chand Taare. While the song itself doesn't directly portray Shah Rukh Khan's life story, it can be interpreted symbolically to represent certain aspects of his journey in the film industry.

The lyrics of Chand Taare are metaphorical and express the feelings of aspiration, determination, and reaching for the stars. The song talks about the desire to achieve greatness and the struggles faced along the way. Although it does not specifically depict Shah Rukh Khan's personal life, it resonates with his own experiences as he pursued a career in acting and eventually became one of the most successful actors in Bollywood.

Rising from humble beginnings

Shah Rukh Khan hails from a middle-class family in Delhi. Like the lyrics suggest, he started with limited resources and had to overcome various challenges to establish himself in the film industry. His journey resonates with the idea of starting small and dreaming big, just like reaching for the stars.

Pursuing passion and dreams

The lyrics of Chand Taare encapsulate the idea of following one's dreams and not giving up despite the hurdles. Shah Rukh Khan had a burning passion for acting and a strong desire to make it big in Bollywood. He pursued his dreams relentlessly, taking risks and facing rejections along the way.

Perseverance and hard work

Shah Rukh Khan's success is often attributed to his relentless hard work and perseverance. He worked tirelessly to improve his acting skills and constantly pushed himself to deliver outstanding performances. This dedication aligns with the lyrics, which emphasise the importance of perseverance and never losing hope.

Overcoming setbacks and challenges

Like any journey, Shah Rukh Khan faced setbacks and obstacles in his career. He experienced failures, struggled to find his breakthrough roles initially, and had to prove himself in a highly competitive industry. However, he remained undeterred and continued striving for success, embodying the spirit of the song's lyrics.

Achieving superstardom

The lyrics of Chand Taare evoke a sense of achieving greatness and reaching for the moon. Shah Rukh Khan's journey in Bollywood led him to become one of the biggest superstars in the industry. He has amassed a massive fan following and consistently delivered blockbuster films, earning him the status of a megastar.

Fan asks Taapsee Pannu when will she get married, actor replies ‘I am not pregnant as yet’

 Taapsee Pannu has kept away from social media for quite some time now. On Monday, the actor conducted a rare Ask Me Anything session with her fans on Instagram and replied to a few questions asked by them. She had a very prompt reply to the question of marriage and couldn't control her laughter over the same. Taapsee is in a relationship with badminton player-turned-coach Mathias Boe for several years. 

Taapsee on marriage

A fan asked Taapsee, "Shaadi kab karoge (when will you get married)." The actor promptly replied, "So when I am getting married? I am not pregnant as yet. So not anytime soon. I will let you all know." She then broke into a fit of laughter.

When Taapsee is not working, she is usually on a holiday with boyfriend Mathias Boe and her sister Shagun Pannu. She recently returned from a very long vacation and said during the fan interaction that she is probably holidaying much more than she is working. She however, added that Krabi Island is on her list for her next trip.

What Taapsee had once said about her wedding plans

Few years ago, Taapsee had said that she would like to get married only for kids. “I will get married only when I want to have babies. I want to have kids out of wedlock. I don’t want an elaborate wedding either. It will be one long day with close friends and family. This multiple day thing is too tiring. It will be like a compact one-day thing,” she had told Pinkvilla in a 2020 interview.

Taapsee's lineup of films

Taapsee took a much-needed break after delivering six releases last year, including Looop Lapeta, Mishan Impossible, Shabaash Mithu, Dobaaraa, Tadka and Blurr. She has now paired up with Shah Rukh Khan for Rajkumar Hirani's Dunki that is expected to release this December. Taapsee has said that she has 3-4 days of shoot left for the film. She also has Woh Ladki Hai Kahaan, Phir Aayi Haseen Dillruba and Jana Gana Mana in the pipeline.

Taapsee is currently shooting for her next Tamil film, Alien. She said on Monday, “It is a high-concept film. Those who enjoyed Game Over will definitely appreciate it. Just to clarify, I am not playing the role of the Alien. This film marks a new and different experience for me too.”
