Shah Rukh Khan would ‘look at me and think of Gauri Khan’ during Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa, reveals Suchitra Krishnamoorthi: ‘That’s why his expressions are so real’

“I used to mainly talk to Gauri, I don’t think I spoke much to Shah Rukh,” Suchitra said. The actor added, “When Shah Rukh was doing Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa, wo mujhe nahi dekh rahe the, wo Gauri ko dekh rahe the. Isiliye wo expressions sab itna masoom, itna real tha..it was all so real. (He wasn’t looking at me, he was looking at Gauri. That’s why his expressions are so innocent, so real.)”

She added, “So I think he would just look at me and think that he is looking at Gauri because unki nayi nayi shaadi hui thi… (he was newly married) so yeah that’s what brought out the innocence and that earnestness.”

In February earlier this year, Shah Rukh revisited his role on the occasion of film’s release anniversary. He tweeted, “At that stage…in that age…..raw….uncontrolled…craft still undefined….surrounded by the best cast & crew in India and a director who I miss every day! Taught me that sometimes u lose the moment….but win everything else…I am sure somewhere, some world Sunil did too!” he tweeted.”

Shah Rukh’s next film Jawan is set to release on September 7. The film will release in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu and is directed by Atlee.
