Anubhav Sinha praises Shah Rukh Khan’s chivalry
In an interview with the Hindustan Times, Anubhav Singha hailed Shah Rukh Khan for the person he is. While talking about how stars can bring change, the filmmaker expressed, “Before Shah Rukh Khan became the star that he is, I never saw a hero run down the steps to give the lady a hand to climb up. I never saw an actor do that.”Anubha Sinha didn’t stop at that, as he added SRK was the one who, according to him, started such a code of conduct. He said, “That is such aspirational conduct that now, you see it very often. Now, that’s a change. People are opening doors for women. Shah Rukh Khan is single-handedly responsible for this chivalry.”Back in 2018, the superstar decided to display the names of the female leads first in the credits. He has been doing the same since then.Hailing SRK further, Anubhav Sinha shared, “So, change is not that difficult an entity. Keep doing the right things. Change happens in so many ways.”
