Sunny Deol said that Shah Rukh called him before watching 'Gadar 2' and also congratulated him on the film's success.
Sunny Deol's 'Gadar 2' is one of the most successful movies of this year. It is all set to enter Rs 500 crore club. The movie has been praised by critics, audiences and celebs as well. Superstar Shah Rukh Khan also watched the film and during the AskSRK session, he revealed he loved it. Now, in an interview, Sunny also said that Shah Rukh called him before watching 'Gadar 2' and also congratulated him on the film's success.
Sunny told Times Now, “Shah Rukh Khan had seen the film. Before that, he had called me and wished me well. He was so happy, and he told me 'I'm so happy, you genuinely deserve it' and I said thank you. Then I spoke to his wife (Gauri Khan) and his son (Aryan Khan). And he said tonight we are going to be watching this film. And after that, he had seen it, and I think that is when he tweeted.”
He added, "It was so beautiful. Many times I've also called him up and we shared our thoughts on certain things''. He also further said, “About the past issues - whatever they were, I would say time heals everything and we move ahead. That's the way life should be.”
Sunny and Shah Rukh were reportedly not on talking terms for 16 years. On this, the actor said, “It’s not that I didn’t talk but I just cut myself off and I anyway don’t socialise much. So we never met, toh baat karne ki baat he nahi hai (there was no question of not talking)."
For the unversed, Sunny was unhappy with the fact that Shah Rukh's character in 'Darr' was of a stalker and how he was glorified despite the former being the 'actual ‘hero’. On Aap Ki Adalat, Sunny had earlier said, “At the end of the day, people loved me in the film. They loved Shah Rukh Khan as well. My only issue with the film was that I did not know they would glorify the villain. I always work in films with an open heart and believe the person. I believe in working with trust. Unfortunately, we have many actors and stars who don’t function in this manner. Maybe that’s the way they want to get their stardom.”
