Shah Rukh Khan listens to his own songs during car rides, reveals Jawan co-actor Sanya Malhotra; remembers advice he gave her

Sanya Malhotra, who was seen on screen with Shah Rukh Khan in Jawan, often reflects on her experience working with the superstar. In a recent interview, the actress recalled a moment when SRK advised her not to think too much. She also revealed that the actor preferred listening to his own songs during car rides.

In a conversation with Mashable India, Sanya Malhotra was asked about a life-changing advice she received from Shah Rukh Khan. She remembered him encouraging her to stop thinking about life or work. She shared that following his advice had a positive impact on her.

When asked about their conversations during car rides, Malhotra revealed that instead of talking, they simply listened to Khan’s songs.

In an old interview with News18, Sanya shared her thoughts about working with Shah Rukh Khan in Jawan. She described the experience as “surreal” but stressed that her main focus was learning from him.

The Kathal actress admitted that as a loyal fan of SRK, she could never have turned down the opportunity to work with him. Sanya recalled being captivated by his professionalism and demeanor, saying she was impressed with how he conducted himself on and off the set and she now fully understands why he is so universally loved.

As she reflected on the film’s predominantly female cast in powerful roles, she noted how unique the experience was. Sanya emphasized that Jawan challenged the typical narrative in Indian cinema, which often stars male heroes in films about women’s causes.

Instead, Shah Rukh Khan’s character brought together five strong women who were aware of their strengths and struggles while embarking on a mission far beyond themselves.

She also praised SRK for his respect and equality towards women and mentioned that he would always welcome female co-stars or technicians on the sets and treated everyone with equal respect.

Malhotra noted that this respect for women is evident in the type of films he chooses and the way women are portrayed in his work.

On the work front, Khan will next be seen in Siddharth Anand’s King alongside Suhana Khan and Abhishek Bachchan.
