Shah Rukh praised her qualities<\/p>\n

On Ranveer Allahbadia\u2019s podcast, Amrita revealed that Shah Rukh was shooting for another film when they had a break in the schedule for Main Hoon Na. She stated that he called her and her mother to meet them during his break and praised her for having the qualities of a superstar.<\/p>\n

Advice that shaped her career choices<\/p>\n

Elaborating further, she added, \u201cHe said something very nice that 200 filmein aayengi, par humein sirf do filmein karni hai. Aur fir usmein se vo ek film ho that people are waiting for. (He told me I will be offered 200 films, but I must sign only two in the hope that one of them is the one people are waiting for.) That has been my criteria while signing films, and that\u2019s why I have been so selective in this journey.\u201d<\/p>\n

Learning from his on-set focus<\/p>\n

\u201cHe used to observe that I have newcomers with me and used to take that nervous energy from us. Every time the first take was the best take, there were no second takes because his temperament was like second take dena hi nahi hai (don\u2019t ask for a second take), be so focused ki second take dena hi naa pade (ensure you don\u2019t need to),\u201d the actress shared.On the work front, Amrita was recently seen in Jolly LLB 3 with Akshay Kumar, Arshad Warsi and Huma Qureshi. The film is currently enjoying its theatrical run. Shah Rukh, on the other hand, was last seen in the 2023 films Pathaan, Jawan and Dunki. He is now shooting for Siddharth Anand\u2019s King.
