Johnny Lever shares his experience of working with Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan
I was a star before Shah Rukh Khan, says Johnny Lever
"Both of us have worked in Baazigar before that he came in Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman. But at that time, he wasn¡¯t that famous. More people used to know me than him during the shooting. I was a star at that time and SRK was upcoming."
Shah Rukh was weak in dancing
While talking about how hardworking SRK is, Johnny Lever revealed that he knew his weakness and he overcame that with hard work. "Both he and Akshay Kumar are hardworking but there's a difference. SRK was weak in fight, he was weak in dancing. Salman Khan and SRK, we are doing Karan Arjun. In that, Salman was doing a perfect take, there would be retakes because of him. Salman would mock SRK. That man has worked and made himself a star. He is now a pro in dance, he can fight too now."
Girls were mad over SRK
He said that gradually Shah Rukh Khan made women go weak in their knees and his fan following increased massively. "The girls were mad over Shah Rukh Khan. All the boys used to be jealous of SRK that their girls crazily loved him. Even when he was hoarded with girls coming to meet him, he used to be focused on his work. Girls used to come to me to ask for a meetup with him," he said.
Salman Khan is moody
Furthermore, Johnny revealed Salman was moody. "He is free. He is tension-free. He is in his own world. On the other hand, Shah Rukh Khan is quite serious about his work. Salman is like I will do my thing and leave. Shah Rukh Khan digs deeper into his character."
