1. 0:00So when I came to Mumbai, like young
2. 0:02people's thoughts are, I thought I
3. 0:03would earn a lot of money, earn a lot
4. 0:05of fame, and get a big house. There
5. 0:07were two main things in my mind behind
6. 0:09all these material things. Today, by
7. 0:11the grace of Allah, I have everything.
8. 0:14But behind these things, behind wanting
9. 0:16a car, wanting a house, and I don't
10. 0:18think this is bad. I think all of you
11. 0:20should imagine all the good material
12. 0:21things that you want. But behind them
13. 0:23there were two good thoughts. One, my
14. 0:26parents had passed away and I had only
15. 0:29one wish in my heart that if I got a
16. 0:31big award like a Filmfare, I could
17. 0:33dedicate it to the memory of my mother.
18. 0:37So I would tell all young people that
19. 0:40whatever you do, do it with happiness
20. 0:42and never think that what I am going to
21. 0:44do is wrong. Because life, its end has
22. 0:47been written for us by God. So whatever
23. 0:50failure or success is, your fear or
24. 0:52your happiness from it, when you know
25. 0:54that life has to end anyway. So none of
26. 0:57it is going to be permanent. So if you
27. 0:59fail once don't worry try again learn
28. 1:02from it. If you succeed once don't
29. 1:04become hot headed and big headed. To
30. 1:07all the young generation people here
31. 1:09who are 20-22 years old like me, I
32. 1:11would just request that practical
33. 1:13purposefulness, that whatever work you
34. 1:15are doing, it is very important to get
35. 1:17a result or outcome from it somewhere.
36. 1:19If you are working for 8 hours, you
37. 1:21should get a salary for it. If you are
38. 1:23working in films, you should get an
39. 1:25award for it. Whatever material thing
40. 1:28is in your heart, keep its belief and
41. 1:30keep it in your mind always. I will
42. 1:33never tell any child to spend their
43. 1:35whole life in social work, just do good
44. 1:36deeds. Just pray. No I think you should
45. 1:40go and get what you want in life. All
46. 1:42the material things. You should have a
47. 1:44big house for your family. You should
48. 1:46have a good car for your elder parents.
49. 1:48You should be able to educate your
50. 1:50sister and your daughter to the best
51. 1:52possible way that you can. Please do
52. 1:54all that. But somewhere in your heart
53. 1:57remember that each job that you do.
54. 2:00Whatever task you do, whatever work you
55. 2:02do, it is necessary that something
56. 2:04positive for humanity comes out of it
57. 2:06somewhere. As I was saying that when I
58. 2:09wake up in the morning, I think about
59. 2:11whether there is any good in what I am
60. 2:12going to do or not. And I read a lot of
61. 2:15books. As a matter of fact, I
62. 2:17personally have 15 or 20,000 books at
63. 2:19home. And I read, all the time, I read
64. 2:22three books a day simultaneously. I
65. 2:24read one in my car while I am on my way
66. 2:26to work. I read one before going to
67. 2:29sleep, and if you don't laugh too much,
68. 2:30let me tell you, I read one in the
69. 2:31bathroom. So I read all three books,
70. 2:34and I have read many self-help and
71. 2:36self-realization books as well. As I
72. 2:38said, think good thoughts as soon as
73. 2:40you wake up in the morning. There are a
74. 2:42few more lines in this book that I
75. 2:44think force us to reflect. If you get
76. 2:46up in the morning and if you think only
77. 2:48good thoughts. Do not think ill of
78. 2:49anyone. Think only of your own good. I
79. 2:51am a very selfish man. And I believe
80. 2:53that if you don't get a chance to think
81. 2:55about others, you don't. Think only
82. 2:57good things for yourself as well. Do
83. 2:58not think that the other person should
84. 2:59lose. Think about how I can win. It's
85. 3:03only a way that you can turn around the
86. 3:04same thought. Because as this book says
87. 3:09, before the physical creation of
88. 3:11anything in the world, it is created in
89. 3:14our thoughts. Which is true. I believe
90. 3:17all things created in this world are
91. 3:18created by our own thoughts. Again and
92. 3:22again, everyone in the world says that
93. 3:24our future is in the hands of the youth
94. 3:26and we should do good deeds. We should
95. 3:29think good things. My belief for every
96. 3:32youth is that whatever you want in life
97. 3:34, whatever you want to earn, be it fame
98. 3:37or money, never hesitate for that. With
99. 3:42all your might, with full strength, try
100. 3:44to achieve everything that interests
101. 3:46your heart, that you love, and do
102. 3:48everything that takes you closer to
103. 3:50your dreams. But within that dream,
104. 3:54somewhere or the other, do keep a
105. 3:56thought that it is also benefiting
106. 3:58humanity and your own people. I don't
107. 4:01think you need to be anyone else. When
108. 4:04I came to the industry, when I started
109. 4:06my work, I didn't want to be anyone
110. 4:07else. I just wanted to do what brought
111. 4:10me happiness. If whatever comes to your
112. 4:13mind, whatever comes to your heart,
113. 4:14brings you joy, sit with your parents
114. 4:16and explain it to them. Because many
115. 4:18times, mothers and fathers are very
116. 4:20strict, saying, "Don't play, study." I
117. 4:23think what you believe in, if you
118. 4:24believe in yourself, you will become
119. 4:26yourself. It's not important to become
120. 4:29a Shah Rukh Khan or an X or a Y and Z.
121. 4:31It is not a big deal to become like
122. 4:33someone else. I think to be occupied
123. 4:36with yourself and be happy with
124. 4:37yourself, I think there is no greater
125. 4:40status in the world than that. Whoever
126. 4:42you are, you are beautiful. That's what
127. 4:44I believe.
