Anjaam's Baby Gazala: SRK Was a Sweetheart Off-Camera
5 Sep
Summary
- Gazala Salmin shared memories of working with Shah Rukh Khan.
- She recalled SRK's caring and sweet nature behind the camera.
- Salmin remembered filming a stunt sequence in Mauritius for 'Anjaam'.
Gazala Salmin, who appeared in the 1994 film 'Anjaam' as a child actor, has recently shared her experiences working with Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan. Known on screen as 'Baby Gazala,' Salmin recounted how Khan, who portrayed the villain, was exceptionally sweet and caring towards her behind the camera.
Salmin reminisced about filming in Mauritius, where several scenes, including birthday sequences, were shot. She vividly remembers Khan’s affectionate gestures, stating he often hugged her and ensured she felt comfortable. This contrasted sharply with his on-screen persona, which, as a child, she found frightening.
One particular memory involved Salmin’s first stunt sequence for 'Anjaam.' The scene required her to jump and fall after Khan's character's car bumped into hers. Despite the jump height and the long shooting hours, Salmin felt safe, though she admitted to being scared due to the absence of a harness.
The film 'Anjaam,' directed by Rahul Rawail, featured Shah Rukh Khan as the antagonist and Madhuri Dixit as the protagonist. Gazala Salmin played their on-screen daughter, Pinky Chopra. This film marked the first on-screen pairing of Khan and Dixit.
Looking ahead, Shah Rukh Khan is preparing for the release of his upcoming action thriller, 'King,' slated for December 24, 2026. This film will also feature his daughter, Suhana Khan, in her first theatrical collaboration with him, arriving shortly after 'Avengers: Doomsday' on December 18, 2026.
