Mumbai: No one can imagine anyone but Allu Arjun as Pushpa. Allu Arjun conquered the box office and audience in Bollywood with his swag as Pushpa and now fans are eagerly waiting for the superstar to spell his magic in Pushpa 2. But did you know that Shah Rukh Khan was approached to play Pushpa and the superstar denied it as he believes now that he couldn’t live up to swag like Allu Arjun? At IIFA Awards 2024, SRK and Vicky got into a banter where the Bad Newz actor quizzed the Jawan star about the films he rejected. First, he took Laal Singh Chadha’s name, where the witty King Khan said that even Aamir shouldn’t have done that film, later he said to the Perfectionist,” I love you”, clarifying all that he said was in jest.
When Vicky confronted about Pushpa, Shah Rukh said,” Oh my god, yaar! Youโve touched on something that still hurts. I really wanted to do Pushpa, but I couldnโt match Allu Arjun sirโs swag.” This comment of the superstar was lauded by the crowd.
