Shah Rukh Khan edits his own films, reveals Wedding Filmer
What's the story
Shah Rukh Khan is not only the king of the box office, but also an accomplished editor!
This was disclosed by Vishal Punjabi, a celebrity wedding photographer and founder of Wedding Filmer, who worked with Khan for 10 years.
After expressing his desire to collaborate with Khan in a letter, Punjabi moved from London to India when the actor invited him to design a Bollywood portal website.
This eventually led to Punjabi joining Khan's production company, Red Chillies Entertainment.
Dedication
Khan's dedication to film editing
In a conversation with DJ Simz, Punjabi emphasized Khan's commitment to editing every film he is involved in.
According to Punjabi, "Shah Rukh is one of the best editors I have worked with. He edits every single film he shoots and acts in. He sits with the editor and goes through every scene."
Punjabi was impressed by the amount of work Khan puts into each project.
Mentorship
'Is that it'? Punjabi's first impression of Khan
Punjabi also shared his initial impressions of the superstar.
"He was a lot smaller than I thought he would be... When I first saw him, I was like, 'Is that it?' because you expect him to be bigger," he said.
During his time at Red Chillies Entertainment, Punjabi learned extensively about cinema under Khan's guidance and described him as an excellent mentor.
Last seen in Dunki, Khan is now gearing up for King, directed by Sujoy Ghosh.
