CNN Central News & Network–ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: Filmmaker and actor Tigmanshu Dhulia recently shared a humorous anecdote from 1994, recalling how he once served Shah Rukh Khan a “bohot ghatiya chai” (terrible tea) made in a microwave. In a candid interview, Dhulia reminisced about his early days in the industry when he and Shah Rukh were working together on the iconic TV series Fauji. At the time, Dhulia was still learning the ropes of filmmaking—and tea-making. In an attempt to be hospitable, he prepared tea using a microwave, which resulted in an unpalatable brew.
He laughingly admitted that Shah Rukh politely drank the tea without complaints, showcasing the superstar’s humility even back then. The story has since gone viral, offering fans a delightful glimpse into the early camaraderie between two now-renowned names in Indian cinema. Social media users have found the tale both relatable and endearing, proving that even superstars like SRK have shared humble beginnings with their peers. It also highlights the bond and memories forged behind the scenes long before fame took over. This nostalgic moment is a sweet reminder of how far these cinematic icons have come.
