Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan, who spent much of his time at Delhi`s Theatre Action Group (TAG), where he studied acting under the mentorship of theatre director Barry John had left by the time filmmaker Imtiaz Ali participated while studying at Hindu College. On the latest episode of Mid-day’s Sit With Hitlist series, the movie maverick gets candid about working with the King of romance.
Imtiaz, who made the 2017 film ‘Jab Harry Met Sejal’ with Khan alongside Anushka Sharma asserts, “I never thought that I`d make a movie with Shah Rukh Khan when I came here (Mumbai). Never. No, I didn`t think of it at all. It wasn`t a possibility and I wasn`t thinking about it. I don`t know, I thought he`s too big. And he was, and he is, but then you realize, somehow it was not on the anvil.”
