Did you know? Shah Rukh Khan’s scene was cut from the climax of ‘Dear Zindagi’

Shah Rukh Khan turned Alia Bhatt’s life coach in Gauri Shinde’s ‘Dear Zindagi’ and what a perfect counsellor he was! But unfortunately there was a scene of SRK in the climax of the film, that got deleted. In his recent interactions with the media, SRK revealed about this scene and said that he did not feel bad about it.

He was talking about his journey in the industry and revealed about this scene. SRK said, “Nobody has done as many different roles as I have… Some people are like, ‘Oh this film is making only Rs 80-90 crore, it’s not Rs 200 crore’. I mean really, man? People don’t even realise that to be in a commercial space I am in, where I garner so many eyeballs, so much money, so much at stake, so much business, so much name and fame and still within all that, to be able to do what you feel like in the morning, it does take a little bit of gentleness in you, if not bigness.”

“It’s like, ‘Look, I just want to act. And I’ve always wanted just that much’. You can ask Gauri or Alia, too. Did I ask what my role is? Did I ever say the scene is not right? The climax scene in the film had me which they removed. I didn’t feel bad. Instead, I felt they did the right thing because it was getting too long anyway. I have never questioned any film. I just want to participate, be an actor and just be happy about it,” he explained further.

Well, we wonder which scene was that?
