Abhay Verma Shares Experience on Working With Shah Rukh Khan in King: ‘Never Been So Nervous’

Abhay Verma recently opened up about his experience on working with Shah Rukh Khan for the upcoming action thriller King.

Abhay Verma is making headlines with his mind-blowing performance in Munjya. Following his grand success, a report by Pinkvilla claimed that Verma had been roped in to play a pivotal role in Shah Rukh Khan’s King. Now, for the first time, Abhay has reacted to the same.

In a recent interview with Popdiaries, Abhay was asked about how he got the opportunity to work in King alongside Shah Rukh Khan. Initially, the Munjya actor just smiled and did not give a detailed response, stating that it was not the right place or time to share that information. When pressed further, he shared that he has “idolized” Shah Rukh Khan, admiring him not only as an actor but also as a person.

“Whatever we have heard about the rumours of whatever is going to happen, I hope that happens (smiles),” he said.

Abhay continued, “Honestly, I have never been so nervous in my life. I wish I could tell the world that ‘This is happening,’ ‘Yeh main kar raha hoon (I’m doing this),’ etc. I am so sorry, but abhi zyada kuch batane ke liye nahin hai (There isn’t much to tell right now).”

Abhay also revealed that he is someone who firmly enjoys surprises. Additionally, he shared that he didn’t inform his family about Munjya. Verma only broke the news six months later, when he was in prep mode.
