"I’ll share an incident, one of the shoot dates, he had to rush to Delhi for some very important work and it couldn’t have happened at another time or another day and it was a very critical kind of a moment in the film for my character which was with him and he just couldn’t be there for that shot and I had to give that shot with a body double and he had to rush”.

The Uri actor further mentioned that Shah Rukh continued to say to him that they would shoot the scene again while it had already been approved. Elaborating on the same, Vicky mentioned:
"After he got done with his work which was like insanely important in Delhi, late in the night, he had called which I missed because there was an event and then he messaged me. A long message saying, ‘Vicky, wo shot hum dobaara karenge. I am really sorry I missed that, I couldn’t be there to give just the cues, I couldn’t be there, We’ll do that shot again’. I had to call him and convince him ki nahi Raju sir is happy and it went okay and there is no need and pata nahi mujhse waapis hoga ki bhi nahi but I was nervous, But he was like, no, we will do it again, I am feeling terrible that I couldn’t be there”.
Going further in the conversation, Vicky Kaushal stated that Shah Rukh was happy with the shots of him with the latter's body double. Heaping praise on SRK, Vicky mentioned that after meeting the former, he realised how much less he is doing at this age, while the former gives his heart 100 per cent in anything he is doing. Vicky can be heard saying:
"He was happy with those shots and only then he was okay with that. That’s him. I met him and I realised how little I am doing at this age. He just gives a 100 per cent like if he is talking to you, then 100 per cent of his being is talking to you and not a degree away from you. He is just something else.”
