Shah Rukh Khan is known as the Bollywood king. In 2023, he had a great year with the movies “Pathan” and “Jawan,” winning the hearts of the audience. Ending the year on a high note, he teamed up with director Hirani for the much-awaited film “Dunki.”
Producer Hirani has had a successful career, but one regret lingered – not having worked with Shah Rukh Khan. However, his wish came true with “Dunki,” after a 20-year wait.
Recently, Hirani shared his thoughts on the matter. He explained that when he began making films, he worried about finding popular actors and actresses. He mentioned the TV series “Circus,” where there was a unique scene featuring an actor whose name he didn’t know.
This actor became a star by the time Hirani graduated from the Film Institute after two years. The 20-year wait to collaborate with Shah Rukh Khan finally ended, and Hirani praised the actor as both talented and generous. Hirani’s long wait could have been shorter if Shah Rukh Khan had accepted earlier proposals.
Hirani had approached Shah Rukh for various films, including “Three Idiots,” but the actor declined. However, King Khan eventually agreed to star in “Dunki,” and the movie quickly won over the audience upon its release. Now, everyone anticipates that Shah Rukh Khan will bring even more surprises in 2024.
