Shah Rukh Khan, known for his steadfast policy of no on-screen kissing, surprised fans when he shared a
kiss
with
Katrina Kaif
in 2012 film ‘
Jab Tak Hai Jaan
.’ This intimate scene marked the first time in his career that SRK broke his long-standing rule, and it left audiences in shock and awe. The topic resurfaced during the promotion of their subsequent film, ‘Zero,’ where Katrina’s response to a fan query about the kiss left everyone impressed.
During a media interaction, Katrina was asked how much she enjoyed the kiss and if she felt lucky to be kissed by Shah Rukh Khan.
In her signature witty style, she retorted, “Kisne bola main lucky hoon? Voh lucky hai,” (Who said I am lucky? He is lucky.)
This clever reply not only highlighted her confidence but also showcased the mutual respect between the two stars.
Shah Rukh’s adherence to his
no-kissing policy
is well-known. While he has performed bold scenes as dictated by various scripts, he avoided lip-lock scenes until ‘Jab Tak Hai Jaan.’ His decision to break this rule was out of respect for his mentor, Yash Chopra. SRK has shared that he has two main rules in his acting career: he does not like riding horses on screen and he avoids on-screen kissing. He finds both activities uncomfortable in front of a large crew, with everyone giving instructions on how to perform. However, he made an exception for Yash Chopra, underscoring the profound influence the filmmaker had on him.
Looking ahead, Shah Rukh Khan continues to be a powerhouse in Bollywood. He was last seen in Rajkumar Hirani’s ‘Dunki.’ The actor is now preparing for Sujoy Ghosh’s ‘King,’ where he will star alongside his daughter, Suhana Khan. In this film, SRK is expected to play a don, a role that promises to be as compelling as Suhana’s parallel lead character. Additionally, fans are eagerly awaiting ‘Tiger vs Pathaan,’ which will see Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan sharing the screen.
On the other hand, Katrina Kaif was last seen in ‘Merry Christmas’ alongside Vijay Sethupathi. She is set to appear in Farhan Akhtar’s ‘Jee Le Zara,’ a highly anticipated project that also stars Priyanka Chopra and Alia Bhatt. Currently, Katrina is in London, sparking speculation among fans that she might be expecting her first child with husband Vicky Kaushal.
