Eijaz Khan opens up about his admiration for Jawan co-star Shah Rukh Khan: 'SRK is everything you hear about him and more'

In the world of cinema, few stars shine as brightly as Shah Rukh Khan. His journey from an outsider to the ‘King of Bollywood’ has inspired countless actors, including Eijaz Khan, who recently shared how working with SRK in Jawan was a transformative experience. Eijaz had nothing but admiration for his Jawan co-star, Shah Rukh Khan.
“SRK is everything you hear about him and more—kind, generous, and an actor who gives his co-stars space to shine. Atlee, on the other hand, has this incredible vision that makes every scene larger than life. I learned so much just by observing them,” he told Bollywood Bubble.
While Jawan was a landmark moment in his career, his latest release Dhoom Dhaam brought an entirely different set of challenges. Filmed in the rugged terrains of Ladakh, the movie pushed Eijaz to his limits. “Shooting at high altitudes with unpredictable weather was tough, but it also made me push my limits,” he shared. “It’s experiences like these that make you rediscover your passion for the craft,” he revealed.

Reflecting on his evolution as an actor, Eijaz shared, “There was a time I thought I was the best actor in the world,” he admitted. “But I realised confidence without arrogance is what makes an actor great.” His dedication to the craft has been evident, as he continuously hones his skills, striking a balance between self-assurance and humility.

As he sets his sights on future projects, Eijaz remains committed to roles that challenge and inspire him. “I want to tell stories that matter and play roles that leave an impact,” he stated.
