From Krazzy 4 to Dulha Mil Gaya: 3 times when Shah Rukh Khan didn’t take any remuneration

Superstar Shah Rukh Khan’s Bollywood journey is the textbook definition of what hard work and perseverance look like. From arriving in Mumbai with no filmy background to becoming one of the most celebrated stars of his generation, Badshah Shah Rukh has built his empire from scratch. His struggle and success have always been an inspiration for all the aspiring out there.

And apart from the massive fan following, lucrative brand endorsement deals, big-budget films, there’s another facet to the actor that not everyone is aware of. When you work in an industry that is so closely knit, you tend to forge a lifelong bond with the people you work with. And sometimes you go out of your way for your friends and their families. So did you know? Shah Rukh did a few films without charging a single penny. Yes, on more than one occasion, the superstar did some cameos for which he didn’t charge any money.

Back in 2008, Shah Rukh Khan appeared in a special dance in Jaideep Sen’s Krazzy 4. As the film was made on a small budget, reportedly Shah Rukh Khan didn’t charge any fees for his dance number. The film was bankrolled by Rakesh Roshan and featured Juhi Chawla, Arshad Warsi, Irrfan Khan, Rajpal Yadav, Suresh Menon, and Dia Mirza.

Helmed by Mudassar Aziz, Dulha Mil Gaya (2010) starred Fardeen Khan, Sushmita Sen and Ishita Sharma. Shah Rukh made a guest appearance in the show and if the reports are to be believed he did this film for free.

You all must have watched and loved Amitabh Bachchan’s Bhoothnath. Interestingly, Shah Rukh had an extended cameo in Bhoothnath as well as its sequel Bhoothnath Returns. And apparently, the King of romance didn’t charge a single penny for his special appearance in Bhoothnath Returns.
