Now, in a recent interview, director Jasmeet K Reen revealed that it was Shah Rukh Khan’s idea to not let go of Hamza’s character in the second half of the film. The superstar felt keeping Hamza in the second half could be humorous.
The director also added that they were not going to let him go but because the humour was just coming out of him being there, tied up or cracking a line. Jasmeet also revealed that SRK asked her to cast someone who could pull off that character. It was an important input because obviously the team added a lot more Hamza after that.
‘Darlings’ also starred Alia Bhatt and Shefali Shah in lead roles. The film, which was released on an OTT platform, received positive reviews from the audience and critics alike.
Meanwhile, on the work front, Shah Rukh is awaiting the release of his upcoming film, ‘Pathaan’. The film also stars Deepika Padukone and John Abraham in lead roles. It is slated to hit the theatres in January next year.
