The success of the film Jawan was celebrated with the presence of Bollywood’s megastar Shah Rukh Khan, the talented Deepika Padukone, director Atlee, and other key members of the film’s team in Mumbai today. What stole the spotlight was SRK’s candid confession about how he envisioned Deepika for her role in ‘Jawan’.
Shah Rukh said, “I love her too much so I will never call her for something which doesn’t become of essence for her because she started her career with me.”
He admitted, “I will not lie, I saw her doing ‘Besharam Rang’ and I felt she will be good as a mother.” Shah Rukh didn’t stop at expressing his admiration for Deepika. He went on to shower praises on her as an actor and commend her for taking on the cameo role in Jawan. He shared, “It was very large-hearted of her. We are very close to each other, we love each other like family, but even then, sometimes work and profession come into your head and heart. For her to have done this also as an actor is very gutsy. She’s a large-size actor. Thank you, Deepika.”
