Soha Ali Khan Birthday Special: 5 Quotes From Her Book The Perils of Being Moderately Famous That You Should Swear By

Soha Ali Khan turns 40 today. We wonder how because she looks way, way younger than that. Maybe her genes are helping her stay every-so-beautiful. Well, it is exactly those genes which sometimes pose as perils for her. The actress, as she puts it herself, has achieved moderate success with films like Rang De Basanti, Khoya Khoya Chand, Tum Mile to name a few. Her family members, on the other hand, are uber popular across the nation. Well, she very articulately put down her thoughts on the same, when she turned author for her book, The Perils of Being Moderately Famous. Section 377: Soha Ali Khan Shares the Sweetest Picture of Inaaya Naumi Kemmu With a Message on Supreme Court’s Judgement.

The book by Soha is a journey in itself. It will make you laugh then fret then laugh a little again. The book is the heartwarming tale of Soha's life, which many of you might be able to relate to. And even if you can't relate, it is a very different perspective on life that will teach you a thing or two. Actually, we recommend that you swear by the following 5 quotes from the book. Soha Ali Khan Sizzles in Polka Dot Bikini While Inaaya Naumi Kemmu Plays in the Water in Maldives (View Pic).

"The heater could warm my fingers and toes, but I needed to make friends to melt the ice around my homesick heart."

"We travel because we know we will come home and when we do, home is the same but we are changed and that changes everything."

"I am not competing with my family members nor am I jostling for my place in the sun. I am content to bask in reflected glory whilst seeking out my unique destiny."

“The irony is that as an actor you are required to dig deep and unearth emotions, to empathize with the characters you play on screen. But how can you do that honestly if you are convinced the world revolves around you? If, like Mercator, you have not stepped out to experience the world in all its diversity and magnificence? That is why it is essential to take the plunge and dive deep. Move outside of your comfort zone. Test yourself. Learn to live and love completely. Remind yourself the tiny speck you are in this universe.”

"If we are unwilling to dig deeper within ourselves to get in touch with our dreams and fears, we are unlikely to give that chance to our friends."

So, we hope that Soha's words of wisdom will help you navigate through your life. And we wish her a very happy birthday. We hope a sequel to the book is coming out soon. We wish you all the success in the world.
