Priyamani starred in Shah Rukh Khan's Jawan.Actor Priyamani, who was a part of Shah Rukh Khan starrer Jawan, has opened up about her experience working with SRK twice. Priyamani said that she had not met Shah Rukh between Chennai Express and Jawan. However, she explained that SRK was still the same and treats everybody with respect and love.
In an interview with Galatta Plus, Priyamani said, “I met him on the sets of Jawan. So we shot the train sequence first, the Metro sequence. So when we were shooting in Film City, we got a call at about 7. We were shooting from 6 in the evening to 6 in the morning. I guess Shah Rukh likes shooting at night. So does Atlee sir.”
Priyamani shared that on the first day of shooting, they were told that “Sir wants to meet you, so please come to the set.” They thought it was Atlee sir but were surprised to find Shah Rukh Khan there instead. Priyamani, leading the group of girls, greeted him first and received a warm hug and a kiss on her forehead. The actor continued, “Shah Rukh said, ‘Thank you so much for doing the film.’ What else do you need? I mean, when he says, “Thank you so much. I’m so happy you guys are part of the film,” I said, ‘Sir, anything for you’.”

The actor gave another instance of Shah Rukh’s kind gestures and said, “It was Atlee sir’s birthday in Chennai, so all of us were there for the birthday party. So I think this was at about 3 or 4 in the morning. We girls were going back to the hotel. He came and saw us off individually. He came to the car. And he actually had a car of bodyguards follow us up till the hotel because there was a good distance of about 45 minutes to about an hour. So he made the car follow us. We said, “You can go.” They said, “No, these are special instructions given by Sir. We have to see you off.”
Priyamani was recently seen in the film Article 370 opposite Yami Gautam.
