Bollywood superstar Shahrukh Khan’s influence extends far beyond India, with his popularity reaching Pakistan as well. Recently, comedian Shakeel Siddiqui shared some insights into SRK’s thoughts on Pakistan, revealing a side of the actor that many may not be familiar with.
During an appearance on Hasna Mana Hai, Siddiqui was asked about his experience working with Shahrukh and his views on Pakistan. He revealed, “He has very positive thoughts about Pakistan. In fact, many of his family members still live in Peshawar, including his cousins.”
Siddiqui also recounted his first meeting with the Bollywood king, not on a film set but during a show in New Jersey. He shared a memorable incident where Shahrukh was detained at the airport for three hours, and his luggage was left behind in England. “That’s where I met him for the first time,” Siddiqui recalled.
When asked if Shahrukh recognized him from Bakra Qiston Pe, Siddiqui laughed and said, “Yes, it was actually quite funny. When he saw me, he said, ‘Oh, it’s you, Shakil Bhai!’ That’s Shah Rukh for you, he treats everyone with respect.”
Siddiqui also praised Shahrukh’s big-hearted nature, noting, “A great man makes others feel great too, and that’s something I’ve seen in him.”
