Mumbai: Working with superstar Shah Rukh Khan aka King Khan is a dream come true for many actors. But what if your first big scene with him involves slapping him across the face? Nerve-wracking, right? That’s exactly what happened with actress Priya Gill while filming the hit 2000 movie Josh.
If you’re a Shah Rukh Khan fan and have watched Josh, you might remember the moment during a song sequence where Priya Gill’s character slaps SRK. The scene, though brief, ended up becoming one of the most unforgettable and uncomfortable experiences for the actress.
An old interview of Priya Gill with Lehren is resurfacing online where the actress candidly recalled, “The most embarrassing thing I did in my entire film career was when I slapped Shah Rukh.” She shared how the scene had to be shot multiple times because the director, Mansoor Khan, felt she wasn’t hitting hard enough to reflect her character’s anger.

“I had to slap him at the beginning of the song, and we kept doing it again and again in Goa. Shah Rukh said, ‘You hit me… hit me,’ and Mansoor said, ‘Hit him, hit him.’ So I had no choice but to actually punch him,” she revealed.
