MUMBAI : Actress Sunny Leone, who features in the remake version of iconic song “Laila Main Laila” in Shah Rukh Khan-starrer “Raees”, says the superstar’s wife Gauri Khan told her she is looking amazing in the item number.
“I saw him (Shah Rukh) and his wife (Gauri) during Diwali party at Aamir Khan’s house. I asked him how is the song looking he said very sweet, his wife said it is looking really good. I was extremely nervous. She said it’s looking amazing,” Sunny said.
“When a woman says something is looking good then you know it’s looking good otherwise we don’t speak, don’t make comment. But she said it looks amazing, great. She made me feel better. Even Shah Rukh Khan said it’s looking really good,” she said.
Dancing to the tunes of Zeenat Aman’s `Laila O Laila’ Sunny recreated the iconic song in her own stylish tadka. The song also has the “Jism 2” actress trying to woo King Khan who is seen dressed in black kurta.
“I wish I could pause that moment. I want to believe that we, as actors, do our job, having respect for each other and working towards what we need to accomplish,” Sunny said.
The 35-year-old actress couldn’t stop heaping praises on the `Badshah of Bollywood’.
“He is extremely professional, very nice, he made me very comfortable as I was very nervous. I had great time working with him…I feel one of the lucky ones,” she gushed.
Even the recently released trailer of “Raees” had a glimpse of Sunny and she says she couldn’t have asked for more.
“I was in LA (in US) when the trailer was launched. I will see him (Shah Rukh) next week. I hope I have lived up to the expectations of Excel Entertainment (producers) and Shah Rukh,” the Canadian-Indian actress.
