In a recent interview with Film Companion, Atlee was asked about his transition from Tamil to Hindi cinema and his comfort working with Shah Rukh Khan. Atlee humorously responded that he was as comfortable as Shah Rukh Khan’s son, Aryan Khan, would have been directing him.
He stated, “You have to ask Shah Rukh sir whether he was comfortable. Because we were talking in Tamil. We were talking in Telugu and Malayalam. But he is a king by himself. I know that. And he was enjoying the process. He was just going behind everyone and saying, ‘Let’s do it.’ I’m not just saying this for the sake of an interview. If Aryan had directed Shah Rukh sir, how comfortable he would have been, I was in that zone.”
This remarkable achievement cements Shah Rukh Khan’s position as one of India’s biggest box office stars.
