Kamal Haasan reminisces about directing Shah Rukh Khan; reveals ‘I never saw him as a megastar…’

Namaste, Bollywood buffs! It’s your favorite snoop, the one and only Bollywood Newshound Nisha, here to spill the chai on the latest filmy gossip. You know the drill – grab your popcorn because this one’s a rollercoaster!

Oh, the sweet nectar of Bollywood camaraderie! Our very own Kamal Haasan, the man with more talents than I have sarcasm, recently opened up about his bromance with the King Khan himself, Shah Rukh Khan. 🎬✨

During a chat about his illustrious journey (and boy, it’s been a journey longer than a daily soap’s runtime), Kamal Haasan recalled directing SRK in the cult classic Hey Ram. Now, here’s the juicy bit – Shah Rukh did the movie for free! Yes, you heard it right. Free. As in zero, zilch, nada. Kamal said, “I didn’t see him as a superstar, and he doesn’t see me as a super director. We are friends.” Aww, isn’t that just the kind of friendship bracelets are made for? 🥰

And SRK, being the magnanimous guy he is, didn’t do it for the fame or the fortune but out of sheer love for the craft and probably a bit of fanboying over Kamal. “That cannot be done by a superstar but only by a fan and a good actor. I am so thankful to him,” Kamal gushed. And we’re here, grinning like Cheshire cats because who doesn’t love a good bromance?

But wait, there’s more! Kamal Haasan, the man who can give even a chameleon a complex with his versatility, shared his undying love for the legendary Dilip Kumar. Every year, like a devoted pilgrim, he’d head to Mumbai in December to celebrate Dilip Sahab’s birthday. Picture this – Kamal, on his knees, kissing Dilip Kumar’s hand. 💖 It’s like a scene from an epic Bollywood drama, minus the dramatic background score.

And just when you thought this article was done, here’s a plot twist! After Hindustani 2, brace yourselves for Hindustani 3. Kamal Haasan has already wrapped up shooting for it. Looks like the man is on a mission to keep us glued to our seats! Mark your calendars, folks! Hindustani 2 hits the theaters on July 12, under the directorial genius of Shankar Shanmugham.

Nisha’s Nutshell:
In Bollywood, nothing’s impossible. Not even a superstar working for free or a legend kneeling before another. So next time you think you’ve seen it all, remember – this is Bollywood, baby! Where friendships are golden, and sequels are never-ending!

Stay tuned for more juicy tidbits from your beloved Bollywood Newshound Nisha. Until then, keep binge-watching and dreaming big! 🎥🍿
