Sanya Malhotra On Jawan Role: "Want To Learn From Shah Rukh Khan, Atlee, Nayanthara"

"I want to learn from him, he's an institution," said Sanya Malhotra about SRK

The limited screen time in Jawan never bothered Sanya Malhotra as the actor says she was more focused on what she could learn from superstar Shah Rukh Khan and the rest of the film's team. Malhotra has a pivotal but small role in the Atlee directorial as Dr Eeram, a former doctor who is part of Shah Rukh's team of vigilantes.

The 31-year-old actor said she learnt a lesson on her first film Dangal, in which she shared the screen with Aamir Khan, and it came in handy when she signed for Jawan as well.

"Nitesh (Tiwari) sir had told me during Dangal to see what you can give to a script as an actor. How much you'll give or what you are or not, that doesn't matter... Even in 'Dangal', I had wrestled for only a minute or 2, but I trained for over a year for it," Malhotra told PTI in an interview.
