I asked him what he wanted to do and he said, ‘I want to go to Bollywood’. I enquired how he planned to do so without having a relative, and with the competition there, how did he plan to be successful?”

Revealing Shah Rukh Khan’s answer, the former The Kapil Sharma Show member said, “He replied, ‘May I say something? I don’t compete with anyone; I compete with myself’.
