Bollywood veterans Salman Khan and Rani Mukerji share a remarkable on-screen chemistry that has stood the test of time. With over three decades in the Hindi film industry, both actors have become icons, appearing together in several memorable films. Recently, Rani opened up about her experiences working with the three Khans — Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, and Aamir Khan — offering insights into their working styles and professionalism.
Salman Khan: The Private Craft
Speaking to Galatta India, Rani Mukerji praised Shah Rukh Khan for his energetic vibe and respect toward co-stars, and admired Aamir Khan’s meticulous dedication to every shot. But when it came to Salman Khan, Rani revealed a side few people see.
“Then I met Salman and it was a 360-degree experience. His dedication towards his craft is completely different. People might think he’s casual, but he is very much there mentally,” she said.
Rani further explained, “Salman comes with that swag and bindaas attitude. He is so good-looking that when he walks on set, you think, ‘Who is this person?’ But his craft is hidden. He doesn’t let anybody enter that zone, so you don’t realize how hard he works. He is fully present, contributing, discussing scenes, and always trying to do something different.”
