SRK admits ‘Jab Harry Met Sejal was “an utter flop”

With the release of ‘Zero’ around the corner, Shah Rukh Khan has spoken candidly about his last release ‘Jab Harry Met Sejal’, which proved a box office dud.

Talking to Telegraph India, Khan said, “I let people down with Jab Harry Met Sejal, which was an utter flop. But I didn’t want to let anyone down; I just liked the fact that koi story nahin thi, sirf ek ring ke chakkar mein the two people (SRK’s Harry and Anushka Sharma’s Sejal) kheechey chale jaate hain… it was very organic, slice-of-life thi.”

He added, “The other day I met a director who mentioned the term ‘slice-of-life’ and I said, ‘nahin, poora pumpkin do mujhe iss baar.”

Despite the flop, Khan and Anushka Sharma will be seen in ‘Zero’ together for the fourth time after ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’, ‘Jab Tak Hai Jaan’ and ‘Jab Harry Met Sejal’. It releases on 21st December 2018.
