Here is What Yash Chopra says,
Shah Rukh is the only actor I’ve encountered in the past twenty years who has never once asked me, “What’s the story?” when it comes to a film. His trust is unwavering, and he never bothers about the money either. Even now, people are asking me for payments, not about the storyline. To be honest, if I were to reveal that you didn’t contribute a single penny for any of the projects, it might surprise many. Just last week, before the movie was released, I sent over a check to cover the dues. Sharukh says I sent him extra money, for the efforts he made.
I remember thinking, “When my brother makes a film, I’ll definitely call Shah Rukh.” I couldn’t help but wonder why you didn’t give the go-ahead earlier. But then, I realized, he was busy. The media, of course, will spin it as if I made a last-minute decision. But you, he has been aware of the stories I’ve been working on. And when I finally asked, he didn’t hesitate and simply said, “I’m ready.”
