Ridhi Dogra, who played Kaveri Amma in Shah Rukh Khan's Jawan, has opened up about her experience of working with the superstar. The actress stars as Shah Rukh Khan aka Azad's adoptive mother in the film. For Ridhi, it was “unfortunate” to play his [Shah Rukh Khan's] mother, but the actress is glad that SRK himself acknowledged it. She told Siddharth Kannan, “Bahut difficult tha mere liye karna jo maine kiya. [It was difficult for me to do what I did.] I am so glad he [SRK] acknowledged it. Maybe he must have said it very casually… I don't know…because unhone stage pe bola hai [he said it on stage]... but unhone jab bola na ‘unfortunately playing my mother'... it was like that moment from Om Shanti Om happened for me. That's it. That's it. I don't need anything else. Thank you for saying that. It is unfortunate to be playing his mother and he said it to me many times ki yaar main samajh sakta hu [I can understand] how wrong you must be feeling.”
Ridhi Dogra was referring to Shah Rukh Khan's statement at the audio launch event of Jawan in Chennai. While thanking the star cast of the film, Shah Rukh Khan said, "Ridhi, who is unfortunately playing my mother, but in the next film, we will work something out age-wise." Sharing the video, Ridhi wrote, "When you swim in an ocean of emotions. As an artist. As a person. And as a fan. The emotions mix up like the lyrics of suraj hua madham."
