Rohit says, 'In 2008, I prepared for the remake of Gulzar saheb's film Angoor. I took the story after taking into account some young actors. At the same time Shahrukh came to me and he also talked about filming with me. When I showed Shahrukh the script, he agreed to do the film as has been one of Shahrukh's favorite films. ' Rohit further adds, 'A few days later I got the story of Chennai Express, I liked the script of Chennai Express so much that I made up my mind to drop it. Shah Rukh went to say that now I will tell him the story of this film, I thought Shah Rukh would refuse me for this film because he agreed to the Angoor. '
