Bollywood’s finest actor Rajkummar Rao has always been vocal about his love and respect for Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan. He claims himself to be a big SRK fan and recently his dream came true when he got the chance to shake a leg on the actor’s most popular song Chaiyya Chaiyya on the stage of Filmfare 2019. While fans are yet to see the awards night as it will air on television next weekend, Rajkummar Rao took to his twitter to share a clip in which he is seen dancing with Shah Rukh Khan.
Sharing to Twitter, Rajkummar Rao wrote, “I got the opportunity to perform with my idol @iamsrk. I love you sir. One must believe and work hard towards their dreams because they do come true.” In the video, Rakummar is seen dancing on an artificial train when Bollywood superstar SRK joined him and the two performed the iconic steps of Chaiyya Chaiyya.

Rajkummar Rao has always been an admirer of Shah Rukh Khan and even claimed that he came into the world of cinema because of him. Earlier in an interview with IndiaTimes, he said, “I am big fan of Dilwale Dulhania Le Jaayenge. I am an actor because of him. When I was growing up I used to watch all Shah Rukh Khan films. I wanted to be Shah Rukh Khan, that’s what I thought when I was a kid. But of course then I started doing theatre and took things very seriously and my perception towards acting changed. But I am still a big fan of him and love him immensely. My favourite Shah Rukh Khan films are Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa and Swades.”
Rajkummar Rao has swept away almost all the awards this season with his spell-binding performance in the movie Stree. Talking about his films and how he is able to entertain the audience on global level, the actor said, “It's a great honour to receive this award. I also feel gratified in a way to know that my films not only entertain audiences in India but globally. I've had very distinguished films in 2018 and this win certifies that the audiences are also open to experimentation and watching something new and interesting.”
