‘Shah Rukh Khan’s Mannat has ‘airport like’ security checks, there were ‘huge halls, lifts and lobby’: Dunki actor Vikram Kochhar 

Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan’s upcoming film Dunki is just days away from its release and fans cannot keep calm. Ahead of the big release, actor Vikram Kochhar, who is a part of the film, has opened up about his experience when he visited SRK’s Mannat. Vikram revealed how there were security checks similar to those of the airport and added that everything was scanned. Vikram praised SRK for his humble nature and recalled how the superstar listened to suggestions from his co-stars during the film’s shoot. 

In an interview with Showsha, Vikram said, “I was starstruck to see Shah Rukh Khan. He called us to his house, to Mannat, when we were going to meet him for the first time. The house is amazing and we went into the lift; there were a lot of security checks. There’s a huge hall, big entrance, lobby, then after that it was just like an airport security kind of a thing… or the one you do when you enter inside a five star hotel. Everything gets scanned.” 

The actor continued, “You go up to his room, and he’s so humble and he’s so genuine. He was like ‘I have just woken up, I woke up slightly late so let’s do it. What do you think about the script and let’s start reading it.’  Him being friendly and equal with everyone is what is amazing. I have not seen that.”

According to Vikram, working with SRK was easy because he creates a comfortable atmosphere. Unlike other stars, he listens to suggestions and allows for open discussions. There were instances during performances when the actors had different ideas, and the star was willing to try out alternative approaches. “You never feel that you’re working with a star, it’s just like if he has a suggestion and you also have a suggestion so he listens to your suggestion,” Vikram said.

Helmed by Rajkumar Hirani, Dunki also stars Taapsee Pannu, Vicky Kaushal and Boman Irani among others.
