Actor and model Rahul Dev and Shah Rukh Khan were schoolmates and studied in Delhi’s St.Columba’s school. In an interview, Rahul recalled how King Khan was a brilliant student and won Sword of Honour. The actor said, “I know SRK since school. He used to be the wicket keeper and I was the fast bowler. He was my senior and that year he won the Sword Award also. Our school had a very rich tradition. At that time Sword of Honour was given to a student who wasn’t just brilliant at academics but also would be inspirational for all his peers. Shah Rukh was that kind of a person in school.”

Talking how he was exceptional, the actor added, “He was exceptional. I don’t find it surprising that SRK has become a superstar. There will be no Shah Rukh Khan in the next 1000 years. He took part in various activities in school. He was first in football, hockey, cricket and every game.”

Speaking on Jawan’s massive success, Rahul said, “I am not surprised by his massive comeback. It was long overdue. I would say, ‘Khan sahab ye bahut pehle kar lena chahiye tha.’ We are proud of him. He is part of the Columban heritage. I feel god gave him every talent and set him out to conquer the world.”
