Shah Rukh Khan is tagged as one of the humblest superstars Bollywood has seen. One actor who is inspired from that is R. Madhavan. This actor revealed that he learnt how to be a star and make people’s lives easy largely because of SRK.

Madhavan was talking to Bollywood Hungama about the comparisons he faced with SRK when Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein released. The actor said, “You start becoming someone you admire.”

He credited his stammering in his debut movie to SRK’s own debut film, Darr. Shah Rukh Khan’s K-K-K-Kiran has become quite iconic and Madhavan stammered when he would be afraid of confessing his love in RHTDM.

Madhavan recalled how his wife is a huge fan of SRK and after knowing that, the Bollywood superstar went ‘out of his way’ everytime to make her feel special. Stating that he would never forget that, Madhavan added that he learnt how to be a star and make people’s lives easy, largely from SRK.

Shah Rukh Khan insisted on being a part of Rocketry, Madhavan has cleared in various interviews. He stressed about the same and said, “SRK wanted to be a part of Rocketry even if it meant passing in the background.”

The Tamilian actor did not believe that and thought that SRK’s team was joking with him. However, he revealed that they actually conveyed to him that Madhavan can just ask SRK to free up some dates and he would be on the sets, shooting for Rocketry.

“He never took money from me, even for costumes. He just came for me and shot in not just shot the film in Hindi but English as well,” the actor shared.

Madhavan also revealed that he had narrated Rocketry script to Shah Rukh Khan while the duo was working on Zero. The film, which released in 2019, is the last released movie featuring SRK. The actor will now appear in three back-to-back films namely Pathaan, Dunki and Jawan.
