On Monday, marking Shah Rukh Khan’s birthday, Atlee had shared a special message for the superstar on X.
“Happy, happy, happy Birthday King Khan, SRK sir! The song ‘Tu Mil Jaaye’ is lovely. Can’t wait to see you on a big screen sir, looking forward for ‘KING’. (sic),” the filmmaker wrote.
Calling Shah Rukh his biggest inspiration, Atlee further added, “Thank you for being my mentor, my guide, my well-wisher and my biggest inspiration in this incredible journey. The time spent with you has taught me so much – not just about cinema but about life, people and staying truly humble. Grateful, always.”
Jawan, co-starring Deepika Padukone, marked the first collaboration between Shah Rukh Khan and Atlee. The film emerged as a major box-office success and earned SRK his first National Film Award for Best Actor.
Wishing the Devdas actor on his birthday, Atlee had also shared an emotional note about working with him.
“Shah Rukh sir being near you itself is a great blessing, sir. As a fanboy, working with you and making a film and presenting it in a mass mode of SRK, sir, is a pure, pure blessing from God, and finally, God is so kind to give us back the greatest moment in our life. Can’t ask for more, sir. This is more than enough for me; I’m the best fanboy of yours, sir. Love you. Love you. Love you. Lots of love sir,” he wrote.
Produced by Gauri Khan under the banner of Red Chillies Entertainment, Jawan also featured Vijay Sethupathi, Nayanthara, Priyamani, Sanya Malhotra and Sunil Grover in pivotal roles.
