Deepika Padukone’s Bollywood journey kickstarted in 2007 with the blockbuster “Om Shanti Om,” where she shared the screen with superstar Shah Rukh Khan. Her career soared with subsequent hits like “Chennai Express,” “Happy New Year,” “Pathaan,” and more. Amidst her string of successes, there’s a delightful throwback to when Shah Rukh Khan playfully teased her about her homemaking skills.
In 2013, Deepika and Shah Rukh charmed audiences with their chemistry in “Chennai Express,” directed by Rohit Shetty. The film was a massive hit, setting records in comedy, music, and overall cinematic experience, grossing a staggering 227 crores at the box office.
Prior to the film’s release, the trio appeared on The Kapil Sharma Show for promotions. During the show, an audience member threw an unexpected question at Deepika, asking about her domestic skills. Without missing a beat, Deepika humorously listed her proficiency in household chores. However, Shah Rukh Khan couldn’t resist interjecting with a witty remark, jesting that they didn’t cast her for her acting talents but rather for her ability to clean the sets.
The playful banter left Deepika, Rohit Shetty, and the audience in fits of laughter, showcasing Shah Rukh Khan’s legendary wit once again. As we reminisce about this humorous incident, it’s evident that Shah Rukh Khan’s charm extends beyond the silver screen.
On the professional front, Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone recently reunited for “Jawan,” directed by Atlee, which garnered immense success at the box office. They kicked off 2023 with another anticipated project, “Pathaan.”
