British actor Alyy Khan who is of Pakistani origin but has worked regularly in Bollywood, recalled his experience working with Shah Rukh Khan on film Don 2. In recent podcast appearance, actor remembered how superstar arrived on set in Berlin and proceeded to go off-script in scene, which caused concern on set, reported The Indian Express.
Alyy revealed that Shah Rukh had just flown in from London, where he was working on film Ra.One, because of which he was yet to memorise his lines for elaborate scene that they were supposed to film together in Berlin. As day progressed, Alyy was summoned to Farhan’s trailer for quick read-through with Shah Rukh.
Speaking about same, he said, “It’s obvious that since I’m doing scene with Shah Rukh, I’ve memorised my lines. But because Shah Rukh has been busy, he hasn’t been able to memorise his. We hugged, sat down across from each other and on my left, all heads of department had gathered. Shah Rukh put on his glasses and said that we should get through them quickly because he was hungry. So, we read the scene, but I could see others through my peripheral vision.
