SRK: “Imtiaz Ali reminds me of Yash Chopra”

Shah Rukh Khan, who stars in filmmaker Imtiaz Ali’s upcoming film ‘Jab Harry Met Sejal’, opposite Anushka Sharma says that the film is about a tourist guide and his love story. “The film travels a lot but it is not on travel. It’s about a tourist guide, but it’s a love story. Two people meet somehow, and somewhere down the line as they are moving around, they kind of fall in love.”

‘Jab Harry Met Sejal’ has been extensively shot in Budapest, Amsterdam, Prague and Punjab. This is the first time Khan has collaborated with Ali, director of films like ‘Highway’ and ‘Jab We Met’. “In a certain way, Imtiaz Ali reminds me of Mr. Yash Chopra because he writes love stories, which travel all over India too and have a Punjab taste. His writing is fantastic,” Shah Rukh shared.

Of Harry Met Sejal, the 51-year-old actor said, “It is a happy film as the poster suggests and the character’s names are Harinder ‘Harry’ Singh and Sejal. It is kind of the Punjabi, Gujarati combination.”

‘Jab Harry Met Sejal’ releases on 4th August 2017.
