Why Rani Mukerji Loves Romancing Shah Rukh Khan

In a recent conversation with Zoom, Rani spoke candidly about the comfort she experiences while working with Shah Rukh Khan. According to her, his warmth creates a unique emotional space that makes co-stars feel instantly valued.

“I’ve always loved romancing Shah Rukh because there’s a different kind of love that Shah Rukh has for everybody,” Rani said. “Anyone who’s in his company feels that Shah Rukh loves them the most.”

She added that she feels most relaxed and uninhibited around Shah Rukh Khan and Aamir Khan, explaining that both actors give her the freedom to be herself without judgement or pressure.

“I guess the love they have for me comes from the fact that they’ve seen me since I was 17,” she shared. “They’ve seen me grow from a little girl to a young woman, and now as a mother. They’ve witnessed my entire journey.”
