In a similar vein to Shah Rukh, Rajkumar is making a comeback in the movies. 2018 saw the release of his most recent movie, Sanju, a biopic of actor Sanjay Dutt. Next in line for SRK is Dunki which also stars Taapsee Pannu and Boman Irani. As per the director, Dunki is a very high-performance picture with a lot of speeches and long scenes, regardless, Shah Rukh has the entire script memorised in his mind. He continued by expressing how much he enjoyed working with the actor.
In an interview, Rajkumar told India Today, “He shoots videos of a scene at his home and sends them to me. There will be 15 ways of how he is going to do this. Before I go on the set, I know what he is going to do. Sometimes I have kept two days for a shoot and he finishes it in two hours. He’s a complete charmer and has great control over the language. He surprised me completely by coming at 7 am to shoot.”
He further added, “He is also aware that I sleep early. Pooja [Dadlani] (Shah Rukh’s manager) tells him not to keep me up late. So, he calls me early. He keeps teasing me that by the time the shoot is done, he will have converted me. ‘Subah kaun uthta hai?’ (Who wakes up in the morning?) He keeps his team happy. They eat and party together. They are a big family for him. I wish I had worked earlier with him.”
On the professional front, Shah Rukh Khan made his comeback to the big screen in January 2023 with Pathaan, which also starred Deepika Padukone and John Abraham. The superstar has also been working on of his next film Jawan apart from Dunki. Jawan is almost ready for release.
