Dev Anand's Gentle Advice to Shah Rukh Khan

Dev Anand's Gentle Advice to Shah Rukh Khan

A long time ago, two famous actors, Dev Anand and Shah Rukh Khan, were at a party.

Dev Anand saw Shah Rukh Khan smoking and gently told him to quit because he thought he was a nice person.

Shah Rukh Khan smiled and said he would try.

A psychologist explains that when people care about someone and tell them to stop a bad habit in a kind way, it works better than shouting or being mean.

This is because it makes the person feel understood and not judged.

The psychologist also says that when advice comes from someone we respect, we are more likely to listen and think about changing our habits.
