Shah Rukh Khan, the Bollywood icon, has been busy with the shoot of his upcoming film King. While on set, an incident involving a co‑actor’s daughter brought a moment of unexpected civility to the spotlight.
Actor Vijayant Kohli, who appeared in Aryan Khan’s The Bad Songs of Bollywood, revealed the story in an interview with Entertainment Live. According to Kohli, a large party was taking place at Khan’s residence to celebrate Gauri Khan’s birthday. He was invited to the event.
“My daughter, Mayra, is a huge fan of yours, Mr. Khan,” Kohli said. “She wanted to meet you, but she couldn’t attend because of an exam.”
Later that morning, around 3:30 a.m., Kohli told Shah Rukh Khan that he might still be awake. He asked, “Can we FaceTime her?” As Kohli was about to place the call, Khan interrupted.
“Do not call any woman directly on camera,” Khan advised. “First, check if she feels comfortable.”
Citing the importance of courtesy, Shah Rukh Khan then called Mayra himself at 4 a.m. The incident highlighted the star’s emphasis on respectful communication, even in informal settings.
The event was part of the preparation for King, and the cover story has since been circulating across entertainment news circles, underscoring how even superstar protocols can set examples for others.
