Mahira Khan enjoys widespread admiration not only within her own country but also throughout India, and she frequently finds herself questioned about her connection with Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan.
In her most recent interview, her reply to a query concerning SRK has become widely popular once more. In a lighthearted part of a talk show, a presenter asked Mahira to select between her Humsafar colleague Fawad Khan and her Raees co-star Shah Rukh Khan for a potential future film collaboration.
Calling it an “impossible” choice, Mahira refused to pick either of them and joked, “Yeh galat sawal hai.” Instead, she pointed towards her fellow guest and announced, “Exactly, I will do a film with Fahad Mustafa,” taking everyone by surprise. Mahira had appeared on the show with Fahad Mustafa to promote their upcoming film Aag Lagay Basti Mein.
For the unversed, Mahira and Shah Rukh Khan shared screen space in the 2017 Bollywood film Raees, where SRK played a Gujarati gangster and Mahira starred as the female lead. Despite the ban on Pakistani actors in India, Mahira has continued to express her admiration for Bollywood and often recalls her experience of working with Shah Rukh fondly.
