Music director Daboo Malik recently shared memories of his time as an actor in the 1993 thriller Baazigar. In an interview, he spoke about working with Shah Rukh Khan and how the superstar’s kindness stood out even in intense scenes.
Daboo Malik Feels Shah Rukh Khan Was A Star At That Time Too
Daboo recalled that he sensed SRK was a star even before he became the ‘King of Bollywood.’ He remembered that Deewana had just been released and was already a hit.
During the shoot of Baazigar, SRK would joke about how Daboo was more focused on music than acting. Speaking to Bollywood Hungama, he shared, “I realised while working on Baazigar that he was a star even then. This was a time when Deewana (1992) had just been released and became a hit. My interaction with him was very interesting.”
He added, “I still remember that he used to remark that instead of learning my lines, all I was doing was singing songs! I used to tell him – 2 lines toh bolni hai, ho jaayega. He sensed that I was a born musician (smiles).”
SRK Was Concerned For Him During A Fight Scene In Baazigar
One moment that stood out for Daboo was an intense fight scene where SRK’s character kills his. Despite the scene’s intensity, SRK kept checking if he was okay.
He recalled, “There was a scene where he was fighting me and was about to kill me. Though it was a tough scene, he was concerned. He would tell me – I hope I am not hurting you. I told him, – No, bhai. Let’s do the scene! Hence, it was a great experience (working with him).”
