Saurabh Shukla says actors would ‘give their right arm’ to work with Shah Rukh Khan

MUMBAI: National Award-winning actor Saurabh Shukla, who will be seen starring in the film “King”, believes that working with Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan is something most actors would readily sign up for, even joking that they would “give their right arm” for the opportunity.

The actor had earlier shared that the upcoming film starring SRK and his daughter Suhana Khan featured 70 percent of Bollywood. Asked if he thinks having an ensemble cast is the new grammar for making movies in mainstream cinema?

Pat came the reply from Saurabh, who told IANS: “No, it’s not like that.”

“Of course, an ensemble cast is a great thing to happen, where each character is treated with dignity. That’s why each character, each actor, becomes an integral part of it. And that’s how we call it an ensemble cast. Ensemble casts should be there in every film.”

Speaking about the buzz around the upcoming film King, Saurabh clarified his earlier remark about “70 per cent of the industry” being associated with the project, saying it was meant to highlight the scale of the film and the enthusiasm around it.
