Actor Divya Dutta is basking in the success of her web series, Chiraiya. The actor got a breakthrough with her performance in Veer-Zaara, which starred Shah Rukh Khan and Preity Zinta. In a recent chat with Humans of Bombay, Divya showered praise on Shah Rukh and shared a story to remind everyone of how considerate and wonderful he is as a person.
While talking about Shah Rukh, Divya said, “My reading of Shah Rukh is that he has seen loads of ups and downs in his life. The beauty of that he has been a learner. He has made it a mantra of his life that he is going to spread joy around him. How amazing is that?”
Divya recalls memory of Shah Rukh and her playing dumb charades, where he went out of his way to acknowledge her mother and show kindness to her and her friends.
Divya played the role of Shabbo in Veer-Zaara (2004). It was a turning point in her career, bringing her widespread acclaim. Meanwhile, her latest show Chiraiya is a social drama web series exploring the dark theme of marital rape, which made a splash on social media for its mature handling of a sensitive issue.
