In a new interview, Girija<\/a> said she saw SRK up close during that emotionally charged period and was struck by his dignity and composure.\u201cI have shot with him in very difficult phases of his life,\u201d Girija told Siddharth Kannan, recalling how the entire episode surrounding Aryan unfolded during the time they were associated with Jawan.

\u2018People took Pathaan personally \u2014 as if it was a form of vengeance\u2019<\/p>\n

Girija also spoke about the unprecedented audience response to Pathaan, which released after the controversy and emerged as a blockbuster. She described the wave of public support as deeply emotional.\u201cIt was almost like people took it upon themselves personally to make this film a hit,\u201d she said, adding that watching the film felt like an act of solidarity. \u201cIt was some sort of angst or anger \u2014 that we will go to see him after buying the ticket. You can\u2019t do this to our beloved person.\u201dShe revealed that she conveyed this sentiment directly to Shah Rukh. \u201cI told him that today, so many people in this country would want to tell you that we are with you… I just wanted to hold your hand and say that we are with you.\u201d She said the actor was visibly grateful and humbled by the support.<\/p>\n

\u2018Even after the success, there was no arrogance\u2019<\/p>\n

What stood out most to Girija was Shah Rukh Khan\u2019s reaction even after Pathaan became a massive hit. \u201cEven then, he wasn\u2019t saying, \u2018We\u2019ve made a super hit film.\u2019 He was just saying, \u2018We didn\u2019t think it would be such a big hit, it\u2019s a good thing, thank God,\u2019\u201d she recalled.She noted how this humility remained intact despite everything he had endured \u2014 including controversies that followed his public appearances, such as the criticism surrounding his presence at Lata Mangeshkar\u2019s funeral. <\/p>\n

\u2018Not once did he lose his cool on set\u2019<\/p>\n

Girija emphasised that throughout months of shooting, Shah Rukh Khan never let personal distress spill onto the set. \u201cNot once has he lost his cool. He has never shouted at anyone. He always showed up on time and did his part well,\u201d she said.Calling two years a long enough time to see someone\u2019s real personality, she added that no one can pretend for that long. \u201cWe shot with him for many months. I truly saw him through all these phases.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u2018He chose silence when everyone else was speaking\u2019<\/p>\n

Addressing speculation around how deeply the episode may have affected him, Girija pointed out that Shah Rukh Khan chose restraint over reaction. She clarified that during the immediate aftermath of Aryan\u2019s arrest, SRK stayed away from public appearances and shooting for several months. \u201cWhen we met him again, the matter was almost over. And he was the same person \u2014 professional, composed, dignified.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Girija Oak, who worked closely with Shah Rukh Khan on Atlee\u2019s Jawan, has opened up about witnessing the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":375510,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[160309,49,48,361,160312,75,160315,129325,160310,160313,160311,8243,8246,160314],"class_list":["post-375509","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-aryan-khan-case","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-celebrities","tag-emotional-support-for-shah-rukh-khan","tag-entertainment","tag-girija","tag-girija-oak","tag-jawan-movie","tag-lata-mangeshkar-funeral","tag-pathaan-movie","tag-shah-rukh","tag-shah-rukh-khan","tag-srk-personal-life"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/375509","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=375509"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/375509\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/375510"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=375509"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=375509"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=375509"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
