She believes that SRK is the most loved romantic hero. “I think all girls are Shah Rukh Khan fans. I was in school when Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995) released and everyone fell in love with him. Whenever we talk about a romantic hero, I can only think of him. And that’s why the director thought of having a scene like that. It’s a cute and interesting moment in the film,” says Neha.

The actor also feels that SRK is more adorable off-screen. “I met him briefly at the music launch of YPD 2 (Yamla Pagla Deewana 2; 2013). He is a very charming man. When you meet him off-screen, you tend to love him even more than what you would on-screen.
