Pooja also inquired about how Jibraan would feel if Shah Rukh Khan reacted to the teaser of his new project. Jibraan’s excitement was palpable. “That would be so cool, that would be, I think, a big thing for all four of us,” he said, referring to his co-stars. Reflecting on his time on the sets of K3G, Jibraan fondly remembered the camaraderie and warmth he experienced. “Yeah, of course. Shah Rukh Khan is one of the best people you can meet. Anyone who has worked with him feels very important. Me and his children were almost the same age, so he treated me like one of his kids,” Jibraan reminisced.

His hopes of making Karan Johar proud and earning the recognition of Shah Rukh Khan show his desire to honor the people who have influenced his career the most.
