Farah Khan: SRK Didn’t Have Water for 2 Days for ‘Om Shanti Om’

Bollywood filmmaker Farah Khan has worked with Shahrukh Khan on multiple occasions, and all their films have turned out to be hits. Among these hits is Om Shanti Om, which was released in 2007 and also marked the debut of Deepika Padukone. But perhaps one of the most notable things about the film is Shahrukh Khan’s ripped physique, which he boldly flaunted for the first time ever in this film. Director Farah Khan revealed in a recent conversation with comedian Bharti Singh and her husband, Harsh Lambachiyaa, that Shahrukh Khan did not consume water for two days during the shoot.

“So during Om Shanti Om, he said, I promised you that the first time I remove my shirt (on camera), I’ll do it for you. He didn’t have water for two days because it causes bloating”, she said. Farah also praised the star’s dedication towards his fitness and looks. Shahrukh Khan is currently gearing up for the release of his upcoming film Dunki, which will take place on December 22. The film was directed by Rajkumar Hirani and also stars Boman Irani, Vicky Kaushal, as well as Taapsee Pannu.
