Vikrant Massey REACTS to comparison with Shah Rukh Khan

If you are listening or watching, I’ll thank you personally. So, thank you very, very much. It’s such a big thing—people like this come around once in a century. It feels nice to hear such things; what can I even say? But, again, it’s Shah Rukh Khan. He has been working for 35 years, whereas I’ve only been here for 10–12 years. Comparing me to him is unfair to him. I feel truly honoured, but it’s unfair to him.”
