‘But that girl was in love with SRK’: Throwback to when Vijay Sethupathi revealed WHY he could not approach his crush

As a dedicated follower of Tamil cinema, I can’t help but be absolutely delighted by the camaraderie between two of my favorite actors, Vijay Sethupathi and Shah Rukh Khan. Their playful banter at the pre-release event of Jawan was not just entertaining, but it also gave us a glimpse into their shared history.


2023 saw Vijay Sethupathi teaming up with director Atlee for their hit movie “Jawan.” In this film, the talented actor portrayed a formidable villain opposite Shah Rukh Khan and Nayanthara. Interestingly, both Vijay Sethupathi and SRK have expressed admiration for each other in various media interviews. In an intriguing turn of events, during a pre-release event for “Jawan” held in Chennai, the actor Vikram shared that he had been too starstruck by Shah Rukh Khan to approach his childhood crush. Yes, you heard it right!

Vijay Sethupathi, the star of “Naanum Rowdy Dhaan,” reminisced about his school days, confessing that he had a secret crush on a girl back then. However, she was unaware and had a fondness for Shah Rukh Khan instead. After all these years, it seems he’s finally found a way to get his “revenge.” This amusing tale left everyone giggling.

At the same gathering, Vijay Sethupathi received a playful retort from Shah Rukh Khan. In a jovial manner, Shah Rukh Khan, famously known for Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, quipped, “I believe everyone who has spoken in Tamil here so far has only complimented me because I couldn’t understand them. Everyone except Vijay Sethupathi, I think they all praised me. He was discussing some girls, you see. And Vijay sir, let me tell you this, you may take your revenge, but you can’t take my women. They belong to me alone.

At the gathering, everyone erupted in laughter due to the amusing camaraderie between these two talented actors of Indian cinema. As per an article in The Times of India, Vijay Sethupathi, during a past interview, expressed admiration for SRK. He described the actor from Ra One as incredibly humble, down-to-earth, and helpful.

For those not familiar, the film “Jawan” is directed by Atlee, who gained fame with Bigil. The story follows a man’s relentless pursuit of justice to right societal wrongs, fueled by a deeply personal vendetta. The movie also explores his confrontation with a ruthless outlaw responsible for inflicting immense pain on countless innocent people. Besides Shah Rukh Khan and Vijay Sethupathi, the film stars Nayanthara, Sanya Malhotra, Priyamani, Deepika Padukone, Riddhi Dogra, and others in significant roles.
