Tales of his gentlemanly nature have become legendary, with each person he meets sharing anecdotes about his charm and warmth.

Saddam’s Testimonial of Kindness and Dedication
In a video that has gone viral on social media, Saddam affectionately refers to Shah Rukh Khan as the ‘sweetest banda’ (a term of endearment). Expressing his admiration, Saddam revealed that he had never encountered a more dedicated actor. Comparing SRK to the rough and tough heroes he usually works with, Saddam recounted an incident where Shah Rukh Khan took a genuine interest in understanding the stunts Saddam was about to perform and ensuring his safety on set. Saddam, impressed by SRK’s genuine concern, recalled how the superstar asked about the safety measures and expressed worry about his well-being.
Furthermore, Saddam shared that Shah Rukh Khan took initiative on the set of ‘Jawan’ and actively discussed the stunts with the crew. The stuntman added that the best part about working with SRK was the actor’s thoughtful nature. After every shot, Shah Rukh Khan would check on Saddam, asking, “Tu thik hai?” (Are you okay?). Even if something went wrong during the shoot, SRK would immediately take the blame, displaying humility and professionalism. Saddam was left in awe, marveling at the uniqueness of Shah Rukh Khan’s star power and his exceptional qualities as an actor and a person.
A Remarkable Scene and Upcoming Projects
Saddam also shared a memorable incident from the filming of ‘Jawan.’ In a particular scene where Shah Rukh Khan’s character had to fight multiple men with his hand tied back, the actor insisted on performing the stunt himself.

While ‘Jawan’ was initially scheduled for a June release, the film’s makers recently announced a revised release date of September 7.
