Bollywood’s Badshah, Shah Rukh Khan, has always been known for his dedication and generosity. A recent revelation from a biography about the superstar details an incredible act of kindness: SRK shot for two Dharma Productions movies without charging a single penny. These favor were extended to his long-time friend, Karan Johar. What’s more, both films prominently feature actor Ranbir Kapoor in the lead.
The two films in question are the visually spectacular ‘Brahmastra’ (2022) and the poignant romantic drama ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’ (2016). This unique connection between SRK, Karan Johar, and Ranbir Kapoor highlights the strong bonds within the film fraternity.
According to the biography, Shah Rukh Khan dedicated 14 days of his valuable time to ‘Brahmastra’ without seeking any monetary compensation. His memorable cameo in ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’ was also a gesture of goodwill. His performance in ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’ included a now-iconic monologue, celebrated for its profound depth and delivery, a testament to his enduring star power and acting prowess.
This selfless act underscores SRK’s deep commitment to his friendships and his passion for cinema. It’s a story that adds another dimension to his legacy, showcasing that his contributions often go beyond monetary value, driven by loyalty and a love for the art form. His remarkable journey from struggle to immense success, including building his dream residence, Mannat, is a true inspiration.
