Ali Zafar faces backlash for opposing Shah Rukh Khan's View f

“The meaning of success cannot be generalised."

Ali Zafar has sparked discussions on social media with his recent comments regarding Bollywood icon Shah Rukh Khan.

A circulating post features Ali Zafar expressing his difference in opinion to SRK’s concept of success.

The post has garnered attention on social media.

Shah Rukh shared his perspective on the notion of success.

He believes achieving success entails a considerable amount of hard work and an inherent sense of restlessness.

These are essential prerequisites before one can reap its rewards.

SRK emphasised the significance of dedication and perseverance in the pursuit of success, underscoring the importance of continuous effort and unwavering determination.

He said: “If you want a successful life, you have to be hardworking.

“There is no such thing like rest, aram or relaxation. Success will not come unless you are completely restless.

“Relaxation and other things in life can definitely wait”.

To this, Ali Zafar disagreed and wrote:

“The meaning of success cannot be generalised.

“The generic definition of success taught to children in recent times since capitalism is largely based on material gain which may not end up serving a lot of our spiritual and emotional needs rather than burn us (sometimes to death).”

Fans criticised Ali’s comments, arguing that Shah Rukh has achieved the pinnacle of success.

A user said: “If it was just luck and no hard work, there would be millions like SRK.

“But there aren’t, only because he is better than the average man due to his hard work.”

Moreover, fans asserted that Shah Rukh Khan’s ability to articulate his views on success stemmed from his unparalleled achievements.

One person commented:

“SRK knows what he is talking about as he has lived it. He is only narrating his experience.”

Amidst the widespread disapproval, some individuals expressed solidarity with Ali Zafar, aligning themselves with his differing viewpoint.

One said: “Statement of Ali Zafar regarding capitalism is completely right, and see here in comments how people are reacting, on the other side SRK is also right and he also is a part of society which is running things the way they are today.

“Hence NO to capitalism always.”

Another added: “SRK may have struggled for his fame but lady luck and Kismat are kind to him too so whatever he says he can get away with it.”
