New Delhi:
Manish Chaudhari recently recalled his ‘odd’ first meeting with Shah Rukh Khan on the sets of Ba***ds of Bollywood. He described an incident during the shooting of a spa scene when he was “naked’.
What’s Happening
- Calling it the “robe-less scene”, Manish Chaudhari told SHOWSHA, “There is a scene in Ba***ds of Bollywood which we shot through the night. It’s in the spa. We were shooting that and I had to go to the bathroom and, of course, I sort of went to the bathroom in my costume, which was nothing, and there he was, and I was lathered in oil.”
- Manish Chaudhari shared that Shah Rukh Khan did not mind and came over to give him a hug.
- He said, “So he came like this (to hug). I said, ‘Sir, no – I don’t think you want to do that.’ He said, ‘Nahi nahi, aaja (No no, come).'”
On Their Next Meeting
Manish Chaudhari continued that the next time they met was three to four days later, when Aryan Khan introduced him to Shah Rukh Khan.
“The next time we met, which was three to four days later, Aryan said, ‘Papa, meet Manish.’ He said, ‘Haan, mile the na. Tab aap nange the. (Yes, we met. You were naked then).’ That’s how I met Shah Rukh Khan.”
