Former IPL Chairman Lalit Modi's young niece Jayati, who is making her acting debut with Karan Johar's 'Gippi', says she took up acting because of superstar Shah Rukh Khan.
The 17-year-old will be seen in Johar's upcoming home production, directed by Sonam Nair.
"Whenever I am upset I prefer watching Shah Rukh's movie. I think his onscreen presence is so powerful that it has the ability to make you smile. Seeing him on screen is the major reason that why I wanted to be on screen. Another dream of mine is that if I do another movie after this, I would want to work with him," Jayati said in an interview in Mumbai.
