Mahima Chaudhry, while talking about her time spent with Shah Rukh Khan while filming ‘Pardes,’ said that the cast and crew of the film waited for 20 days for the Bollywood star to arrive at the set.
“During the initial 15-20 days of Pardes, everyone kept saying he would arrive today or tomorrow, but he didn’t show up. When he finally did, everyone huddled around him, because we were all new, and waited for him to say, ‘Hi’. Once he started a conversation, everyone would listen. He is full of stories,” the actress said.
According to Chaudhry, she learned a lot from Khan while working with him on the film.
“I would sit and watch his takes to see how he does the scenes, says his lines, performs the dance steps etc to watch and learn,” the Bollywood actress said.
