Superstar Shah Rukh Khan has denied reports that he didn’t want to work with actress Kangana Ranaut in a Sanjay Leela Bhansali film. The superstar was expected to share screen space with Kangana. But he reportedly refused to do that. Asked about it, the ‘Raees‘ star said: “Don’t believe what you read online.”Shah Rukh was honoured with the fourth Yash Chopra National Memorial Award on Saturday.
The award has been instituted by the philanthropist T. Subbarami Reddy, in association with Anu Ranjan (President, The Indian Television Academy) and Shashi in the memory of the late filmmaker Yash Chopra, whose movies like ‘Jab Tak Hai Jaan’ and ‘Dil To Pagal Hai’ starred SRK.
When will the audience see Shah Rukh in a Yash Raj project? “I’ve no idea. There is no discussion on a film right now,” said the actor. “Working with Yashji was very personal. I don’t think I am able to express it. I have worked with him for 20 years.”Right from the time I came here and then we lost him as we walked along the path. Being part of his last shot and his last film… it is very emotional for me,” he added. “He was honest, straightforward and a basic person. Simplicity made him extremely special.”
