Superstar Shah Rukh Khan and veteran actor Tiku Talsania have worked in several films, including Devdas, Duplicate, Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa, Oh Darling Yeh Hai India, and others. In a conversation with ANI, Tiku Talsania recalled collaborating with the superstar, revealing Shah Rukh once gave him his car to drive.
Considering it a 'big' moment, Talsania shared, ' Unhone ne nayi gaadi khareedi to mujhe gaadi ki ride di, and I said ki chalau mai, to unhone kaha le jao. I went to Nariman Point and came back. It was a big thing for me that Shah Rukh Khan let me drive his car' (He bought a new car and gave me a ride in it, and I asked if I could drive the car, and he allowed me).' He praised the superstar and called him a wonderful actor, 'Shah Rukh Khan to bahut bade actor hai…uski kaam ki fehrisht bahut badi hai … His merit list is much higher than his work. That is why he is called King Khan'. Talsania recalled working with him in the 1995 Ketan Mehta directorial project Oh Darling Yeh Hai India.
'We were shooting Oh Darling Yeh Hai India. I got a little heated there, and then he (Shah Rukh Khan) asked what happened. I said the cheque has been bounced six times; the money has not come. Still, we are working on the sets.' He also recalled the craze of fans for SRK, saying, 'Fans came and started pulling his hair, because they were so much in love with him. We anyhow managed to bring him back on the sets and there were many such memories.' The ace star also worked with Aamir Khan and Salman Khan in the 1994 film Andaz Apna Apna, and he shared that he would love to be part of its sequel as well if it is made and replied 'Why not? It's an iconic film.'
After entertaining the audience with his memorable comic roles, the actor expressed his desire to play a villain. 'Every actor wants to play different roles.' Tiku Talsania also talked about his upcoming Gujarati film, Jai Mata Ji-Let's Rock: 'I liked the script of the film and the approach of the director, so I decided to do the film.' The film is directed by Manish Saini, and it is set to release on May 9.
Tiku Talsania is best known for his comic roles in films like Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa, Ishq, Hum Hain Rahi Pyar Ke, Andaz Apna Apna, Hungama, and Dhamaal, among others.

During the launch, Shah Rukh Khan introduced the cast of the show in his inimitable style and playful humour, including Bobby Deol, Lakshya, Sahher Bambba, Manoj Pahwa, Mona Singh, Manish Chaudhari, Raghav Juyal, Anya Singh, and Vijayant Kohli with Rajat Bedi and Gautami Kapoor—all of whom shared insights into their characters and experience shooting this cheeky, no-filter series. In a moment that had the crowd buzzing, Shah Rukh Khan and Aryan Khan took the stage to introduce the world of The Ba***ds of Bollywood. Aryan spoke about creating a story inspired by real emotions and human ambition, saying, 'With The Ba***ds of Bollywood, I wanted to build a world that feels alive, a mix of glitz and grit, where ambition shines, egos clash, and nothing is ever as it seems. In Netflix, we found a partner who shared our creative vision—helping us tell the story exactly how it needed to be told, raw, stylised, and something the world has never experienced before.' Bohot hard. Aur bohot heart bhi ❤️‍🔥🎬 Watch The Ba***ds of Bollywood, out 18 September, only on Netflix.# — Netflix India (@NetflixIndia) August 20, 2025 After Bard of Blood, Darlings, Bhakshak, Betaal, and Class of '83, this marks the sixth collaboration between Netflix and Red Chillies Entertainment, and easily their boldest, most unfiltered one yet. Shah Rukh Khan said, 'It's a proud moment to see Aryan carve out his vision with such clarity and edge.
