Chandan Roy Sanyal reveals one thing that he learnt from Shah Rukh Khan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Saif Ali Khan

Chandan Roy Sanyal is one of the most talented actors of Bollywood. With his performances in movies like Kaminey, F.A.L.T.U, Jazbaa, Chef, and Jab Harry Met Sejal, the actor has impressed one and all.

He has shared screen space with stars like Aishwarya Rai Bachchan (Jazbaa), Shah Rukh Khan (Jab Harry Met Sejal) and Saif Ali Khan (Chef). We recently met Chandan and asked him about what’s one thing that he has learnt from these stars while working with them. To which the actor said, “One thing that I learnt from them is humility and their professionalism. They are movie stars and people have a kind of an image about them. But it really takes a lot of hard work to be there, to look right, to feel right, to say it right, to do it right and that needs a lot of preparation and mehnat (hard work). So, when I was working with Saif or Mr. Khan (SRK) or Aishwarya, they were pretty professional, they did the scenes exactly how I wanted it to be. I come from a theatre, so I needed a lot of rehearsals before the scene and Mr. Khan or Saif, never shied away from giving me a rehearsal. So yeah, I think what I would take back home their humility and professionalism.”
