Alia Bhatt has always admired Shah Rukh Khan, and recently, she shared just how much his work means to her. In a recent interview, the Jigra star revealed that Shah Rukh’s iconic Palat scene from Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge gives her major butterflies.
The moment where Raj (played by SRK) waits for Simran (Kajol) to turn back if she loves him still sends chills down her spine.

Speaking about the scene to Allure Magazine, Alia said, “He’s waiting for her to turn, ‘Palat,’ and then suddenly on cue she turns, and the music just swells. It’s like butterflies, goosebumps, everything put together.”
She even added that every girl dreams of a moment like that in her life, where she looks back and finds someone waiting for her.
“I think every girl has wanted that sort of recreation in her life where you look back and there’s a guy looking at you or he’s waiting for you to look at him,” she said.
