“Salman Khan is the opposite of Shah Rukh Khan,” says Govind Namdev; reveals their contrasting approaches to work

-

Veteran actor Govind Namdev has shared his experience of working with Bollywood superstars Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan. In an interview with Bollywood Bubble, Govind Namdev recalled his time with Shah Rukh Khan on the sets of Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani (2000).

“Salman Khan is the opposite of Shah Rukh Khan,” says Govind Namdev; reveals their contrasting approaches to work

Shah Rukh Khan will smoke like a chimney and keep working

According to Govind Namdev, Shah Rukh Khan’s work ethic was unparalleled, as he would work tirelessly, often for just four hours of sleep, and constantly think about his next project. “I had heard a lot about workaholics, jinhe sirf kaam ki dhun hoti hai. I had heard about them, but I saw it the first time when I worked with Shah Rukh Khan,” Govind Namdev said.

He further recalled, “We worked throughout the day, then at night he mingled with the whole crew, we ate together and then, because he was also the producer, he worked till 2 AM. The next day, he had to take an early morning flight to Chennai to attend a function, then come back and resume shooting! He would’ve slept for not more than three and a half or four hours maximum. Kaam mein dhuni hai woh. He will smoke like a chimney and keep working, keep thinking about what to do next. Superstars usually have this attitude, these tantrums, but not him.”

Govind Namdev recalls shooting Wanted with Salman Khan

Govind Namdev also shared his experience of working with Salman Khan on the sets of Wanted (2009). Unlike Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan didn’t interact much with the crew and focused solely on his work. Govind Namdev noted that Salman Khan would occasionally share stories about his childhood and his father, Salim Khan, but otherwise kept to himself.

In his words, “He doesn’t interact much, sirf kaam se kaam. There was no personal talk at all. Just sometimes how unke father kaise hote the, kuch bhi tedha kiya toh padti thi humko‘ (Salman would share how if the kids did anything naughty, they would get a beating by their father Salim). That’s it. He is the opposite of Shah Rukh Khan as far as interacting with others is concerned.”

Speaking of the professional front, the veteran actor was last seen in Vicky Kaushal’s Sam Bahadur. Meanwhile, Salman Khan is currently shooting for Sikandar and Shah Rukh is vacationing in London with friends and family.

Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan Box Office: Salman Khan’s film enters Rs. 100 Crore Club, aims to cross Jai Ho next

After playing in theatres for 10 days, the Salman Khan starrer Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan has entered the Rs. 100 Crore Club. It has taken a while for the film to reach here since pre-pandemic it was an entirely different scenario where Salman Khan starrers were scoring as much in their opening weekend itself. However, these are different times and hence the kind of momentum that was evidenced for films in 2019 or before is just not coming in. Yes, there are exceptions like Pathaan or Brahmastra but then those have a different kind of pitch and aren’t regular affairs. This can be seen in the way how collections are coming for the Farhad Samji directed film in the second weekend, what with Sunday collections staying low at Rs. 3.50 crores. For a big holiday release, one would have been expecting a double digit score at the bare minimum on second Sunday but then that has hardly happened for any film during last 18 odd months ever since Akshay Kumar’s Sooryavanshi opened theatres aga
