Actor Vidya Malavade has some memorable roles to her credit. Now as she gears up to star in Aayush Sharma‘s Ruslaan, Vidya revisited working with Shah Rukh Khan in Chak De India.

Talking to Bollywood Bubble, Vidya shared, “I did not think that Chak De India would become like this and that my part would become so popular. I read the script and liked it. I wanted to be a part of the film. But we all knew it was a Yashraj film and had Mr Shah Rukh Khan in it, that was a big deal for all of us. We were all like little fangirls. We never worked with the mindset that the film would do very well.”

Vidya Malavade also shared how while working on an ad film with Shah Rukh Khan, she wished to do a film with him and then Chak De India happened. Vidya said, “By the time I came on board, I was one of the last people. By then we knew that Shah Rukh Khan was a part of this film. I had shot for an ad film with SRK just two days before I signed Chak De India, but that time I didn’t tell him that I had auditioned for the part.”

Vidya even called Shah Rukh a ‘generous actor’ as she shared how SRK helped other girls also in facing the camera. She added, “He would keep guiding all the other girls because a lot of them had never faced the camera before. He would make the scene our own and not just about him.”

On the work front, after Ruslaan, Vidya Malavade will be seen in Mismatched Season 3.
