We can’t forget the scene from Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge in which Simran (Kajol) comes running towards Raj (Shah Rukh Khan) and hugs him in a mustard farm. Well, actors Rajkummar Rao and Nushrratt Bharuccha recreated that scene when they were shooting for Chhalaang.

Nushrratt took to Instagram to share the video of the same. She captioned it as, “Bade bade deshon mein aise pyaare pyaare videos bante rehte hai @rajkummar_rao.”

Rao has always stated that he is a big fan of Shah Rukh Khan and he is also quite good at mimicking the King Khan of Bollywood. Well, this recreated scene is quite funny, but of course, we love the original one featuring our very own Raj and Simran.

Rajkummar and Nushrratt are currently busy garnering praises for their performance in Chhalaang. Both the actors had worked together in the 2010 release Love Sex Aur Dhokha and now, after 10 years, we get to see them on screen together.

While talking about her experience of working with Rajkummar, Nushrratt had told us, “We had very different paths, but we have grown in our own spaces as actors and as people. But to see him now after watching all his performances and to watch him do that same craft in front of you was an absolute delight. I was trying to observe him as much as I could. Actors have certain things that they keep it to themselves which they use in their performances, I was trying to get into that and find out what he does, how he does, and how he achieves that. One thing about Raj is that he improvises a lot like he knows this is the framework and this is the scene, but he will just start doing something completely different and I was like ‘oh okay we are still in the scene, I think we had snapped out of it’.”

Directed by Hansal Mehta, Chhalaang is streaming on Amazon Prime Video and it has received good reviews.
