The reigning, famously known Bollywood and Hollywood star Deepika Padukone recalled a lesson from Shah Rukh Khan (SRK) on Saturday that when she resumed a King film shooting with SRK amidst rumors of being out citing professional differences.
The 39-year-old actress wrote, sharing the image of herself holding hands with Shah Rukh Khan, that the very first lesson he taught her almost 18 years ago while filming Om Shanti Om was that the experience of making a movie, and the people you make it with, matter far more than its success.
The Bollywood superstar further added that I couldn’t agree more and have applied that learning to every decision I’ve made since.
Furthermore, she predictably added that, and that’s probably why we’re back making our 6th movie together?
