MUMBAI: Shah Rukh Khan's drama Om Shanti Om from 2007 is one of the most cherished films of all time. Shreyas Talpade also starred in the film and Farah Khan directed the movie. Shreyas described SRK as a "witty" individual in a recent interview, recalling their collaboration. He also remembered how their improvisations once annoyed Farah on sets.

Shreyas Talpade was recently speaking to Lehren when he recalled, “Farah saw me in Dor and that’s when she thought of casting me for Om Shanti Om as Pappu Master. From day one, I was very nervous, you know, working with Shah Rukh Khan and how is he going to feel because I come from a school where we improvise a lot. So, I was thinking of quite a few things to improvise, but I said I don’t know how Shah is going to react to the whole thing.”

“So after a couple of hours, I said, whatever he thinks, let me at least go and speak with him and tell him that this is what I have in mind, because otherwise I’m going to be miserable throughout the shoot. I spoke with him and he was so happy with the whole thing. And then of course, he is so witty himself, he came up with ten things,” the actor added.

However, SRK and Shreyas’ improvisations left Farah Khan annoyed after a point and the director lost her cool on the two actors. She asked them to stop their improvisations and just read “the damn script”.

“So, through the day, we kept improvising and, you know, playing around and that chemistry started building to the point where I remember in the evening there’s one scene that we were shooting and Farah finally came and said, ‘Enough, enough of improvisations, just say whatever is written in the damn script’,” Shreyas shared.

Om Shanti Om was Deepika Padukone's debut film as well. Arjun Rampal and Kirron Kher played significant roles in the movie as well. The plot was a young actor (SRK) who fell in love with a well-known actress, Shantipriya (Deepika Padukone), but he was killed while attempting to save her. However, he takes rebirth to get revenge on the murders.

In 2022, the film was re-released in theatres throughout 20 cities in the nation, including Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Patna, Bhopal, and Ahmedabad, in honour of Om Shanti Om's 15th anniversary. Om Shanti Om's re-release was allegedly inspired by SRK Universe, one of Shah Rukh Khan's fan club.
