How their friendship began<\/p>\n

A bond that started over a film<\/p>\n

Elaborating further, he added, \u201cWe went to watch James Cameron<\/a>\u2019s The Abyss. I think that\u2019s where our friendship really began. We sat quietly through the film, and after it ended, he asked me for Rs 100, saying he had run out of money and needed to go home \u2014 which, at that time, was filmmaker Aziz Mirza\u2019s office in Bandra, where he was staying while working on Circus.”\u201cI had my car though, so I offered to drop him. But then we ran out of petrol! Since my place was nearby, I told him we could borrow Rs 100 from my mother, who suffered from insomnia. But strangely, that night, she was fast asleep. I offered him my pajamas and told him to stay the night. The next morning, I couldn\u2019t wake him \u2014 he looked like he hadn\u2019t slept properly in ages. I asked my mother to give him breakfast and some money when he woke up. He woke up at 6:30 in the evening and thought it was morning! I made him shower \u2014 he said, \u2018In Delhi, we don\u2019t bathe in winters.\u2019 I told him, \u2018In Mumbai, we do \u2014 or my mother won\u2019t let you sit at the dining table!\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

All of SRK\u2019s favourite things start with C<\/p>\n

Recalling the time when Vaswani took the superstar out for dinner, he said, \u201cWe went to Church Street once my dad returned with the car. We ordered all his favourites \u2014 butter chicken, tandoori chicken, chicken tikka, Coke\u2026 I must tell you, all his favorite things start with the letter C \u2014 cola, coffee, cigarettes, chicken, cinema\u2026 and of course, Gauri\u2019s surname, Chibba.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Viveck Vaswani reminisced about his early days with Shah Rukh Khan, recounting their first meeting over a cigarette…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":120523,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[4196,71892,93,71891,13664,61,60,32161,71894,270,1266,71893,26724,69798],"class_list":{"0":"post-120522","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-movies","8":"tag-aryan-khan","9":"tag-aziz-mirza","10":"tag-entertainment","11":"tag-gauri-chibba","12":"tag-gauri-khan","13":"tag-ie","14":"tag-ireland","15":"tag-james-cameron","16":"tag-king-teaser","17":"tag-movies","18":"tag-shah-rukh-khan","19":"tag-sonam-gupta","20":"tag-srk","21":"tag-viveck-vaswani"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/120522","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=120522"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/120522\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/120523"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=120522"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=120522"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=120522"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
