Shah Rukh had recently travelled to Australia, where he’d opened the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne. Also as part of the trip, the actor was conferred with an Honorary Degree, Doctor of Letters (honoris causa) by the Melbourne-based La Trobe University, in recognition of his efforts to support underprivileged children, fight for women’s empowerment through Meer Foundation and his achievements in the Indian entertainment industry.

Shah Rukh had taken the opportunity to talk about his career, which he has put the brakes on after the failure of his last release, Zero. He said, “I just finished the last film I made and to put it lightly, it was a disaster. I said to myself that let me enjoy a little bit of un-success as I had success for so long. So I have taken some time off for next four or five months. As a matter of fact, I’m on these breaks... Coming here (Melbourne) and meeting people, realising and discovering new stories, doing intellectual speaking.”
