Mumbai, February 03: The recently concluded Zee Cine Awards 2012 that took place in Macau saw several lifelong dreams come true. And one such dream was that of Zee TV’s leading ladies Mitali Nag (Krishna of Afsar Bitiya), Asha Negi (Poorvi of Pavitra Rishta) and Rati Pandey (Indira of Hitler Didi) when they had the opportunity of coming face-to-face and interacting with their heartthrob — superstar Shah Rukh Khan.
They attended the press conference for Indian and international media with King Khan and ZEEL MD & CEO, Punit Goenka at a press conference on the day of the awards soiree. At the press conference, when Goenka asked SRK for his words of advice to the three leading ladies on reaching the pinnacle of success after having similarly started his career on television, Shah Rukh said in a lighter vein, “I have a tip for you three beautiful women — Just keep hugging me! Give me a hug in the morning, afternoon and evening daily and watch how your life just changes for the better... all those who have hugged me have had a successful life!” Not about to let such a golden opportunity pass them by, the three ladies immediately huddled on stage to hug the hero they’ve loved and admired for so many years.
Speaking about their brush with the Badshaah of Bollywood, Asha said, “Sharing the dias with Shah Rukh has been the absolute highlight of our entire Zee Cine Awards experience. He is so down to earth and charming, we were completely floored by him.” Rati added, “It took us a while to digest that we were actually hugging Shah Rukh Khan. He spoke so well at the press conference and his words of advice to us as an actor are something we will always cherish and live by! There’s just one regret that I am left with and that is the fact that I did not ask him when I will get the chance to work with him. I was too overwhelmed at the mere sight of SRK to think coherently and collect my thoughts.”
