Bharti Singh recalls breaking down after seeing Shah Rukh Khan dressing as Lalli, says, “I also didn’t know…”

Bharti Singh has successfully carved a niche for herself in comic space. Apart from being a comedian, Bharti is a prolific host, vlogger and interviewer. However, her journey has not been an easy one. Bharti along with her husband Harsh Limbachiyaa, appeared on YouTuber Thugesh’s The Thugesh Show where she recalled an emotional moment when she requested Shah Rukh Khan to dress up as her famous child character, Lalli.

Speaking on The Thugesh Show, Bharti shared, “I was new in the industry, having just come from my village. I doubted whether Shah Rukh would actually perform as Lalli.” She added, “I also didn’t know the level of grandeur— I hadn’t seen Mannat. So, I just asked him, ‘Sir, will you dress up as Lalli?’ And he immediately said, ‘Yes.’ When I handed him the wig, he even asked for my character’s full costume, which was a frock. When he dressed up, I couldn’t hold back my tears. I had come to Mumbai from a poor family in Amritsar, and here I was, asking Shah Rukh Khan for something—and he just did it. It was one of the golden days of my life. I am a huge fan of his.”

Shah Rukh Khan had appeared as a guest on Comedy Nights Bachao, where Bharti Singh was a contestant. In the clip, SRK jokingly says, “Pehle hi log jo hai samajhte nahi hai ki main macho hero hoon. Yeh dekhne ke baad thodi bohot jo rahi hogi woh bhi khatam ho jayegi (People already don’t think I am a macho hero. After watching this, whatever little impression was left will also be gone).”
