While Shaimak didn't want to choreograph it, he couldn't say no as they invited him for dinner and told him about their movie, Dil Toh Pagal Hai. Shaimak added that his style was different and their movie would flop as it was Western. He added that Shah Rukh forced him to choreograph and Yash Johar's mad love made him do it. He was quoted as saying:
"Shah Rukh's wife was my student and one day I got a phone from Gauri saying, 'Come home, Shah Rukh wants to meet you.' I said, 'For what?' Then he called me for dinner an d said there's a movie, 'Dil To Pagal Hai'. I said, 'Nice great'. He said I want you to choreograph it, and I said are you mad, Shah Rukh my style, the movie will flop. It's too western, it is never gonna work. No I want it, there is Madhuri, there is Karisma. Yash uncle said you can use your own dancers. It was actually Shah Rukh's forcing me and Yash' uncle's mad love for me, and then I started, le gaye le gaye."
While the world knows Shah Rukh as a superstar, Shaimak Davar has seen his vulnerable side as a loverboy. In 2016, Shaimak took to his Twitter to reveal how he remembers Shah Rukh as a young boy waiting outside his dance class to meet Gauri Khan. His tweet could be read as:
"Still remember @iamsrk waiting outside dance class when Gauri was my student! Now such a big star bt still so humble!"
Shah Rukh Khan's film, Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman, completed 31 years, and it was supposed to be his debut film, but it was delayed. In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, his co-star, Viveck Vaswani, opened up about the time when the superstar was not in favour of appearing in the films. He had a simple answer: he would have to hug girls, and his wife, Gauri Khan, doesn't like it.
Earlier, in an interview with fashion designers, Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla for NDTV Good Times, Gauri revealed that she wanted her husband, Shah Rukh Khan's films to flop. In one of the segments, Sandeep said that she must have stood with Shah Rukh like a rock. Gauri denied this and revealed that she wanted his films to flop. Gauri further revealed the reason behind it, and said that she wasn't happy about coming to Bombay and the whole filmy world was different for her.
