Shah Rukh Khan praised for ‘gentleman behaviour’ towards female friends

Shah Rukh Khan’s former classmate and Indian actress Deepika Deshpande Amin recently showered praise on the Bollywood megastar’s helpful gesture for female students. 

During an interview with Rajshri Unplugged, the actress, who was the batch mate of Shah Rukh at Barry John’s theatre, shared that he used to "drop all girls off at their respective homes."

She said, "Shah Rukh had the Maruti van and he used to drop everyone off one by one at their homes."

Speaking of the Pathaan star's positive energy, Deepika shared, "The energy he (Shah Rukh) had back then, is still there. People talk about his energy, his enthusiasm and how he is always saying, ‘let’s do this, let’s do that.’ And he used to help everyone a lot."

Shah Rukh often received praise from his friends and well-wishers for his humble personality.

On the professional front, the King Khan of Indian cinema was last seen in Rajkumar Hirani's directorial Dunki. 

The critically acclaimed filmmaker also expressed his admiration for the leading man of his newly released film.

In conversation with News18, the director of 3 Idiots said, "I was enamoured by his charm. I would put on an eye mask and earplugs when he was giving a shot. Once he finished, my assistant would tell me, sir the shot is over and then I would open my eyes."

Rajkumar added, "Jokes apart, he is an amazing actor and an even better person."
