Imtiaz Ali's upcoming film with Shah Rukh Khan has been in news ever since it has been announced.

The filmmaker about the film and SRK said, "He is the most gracious, funny, passionate person, filmmaker friend that one can hope for. It's his kindness that the film has turned out so well. I'm happy that I got a chance to work with The Shah Rukh Khan. I hope I've been able to justify the huge talent and resource that the man is."

Getting compared with Yash Chopra, Imtiaz said, "To be compared to Mr. Yash Chopra is both, a matter of unbelievable pride and a little embarrassment and humiliation because in my own eyes I stand nowhere close to him."

He added, "I would never say that I have any quality which resembles him because for me, he is just a huge legend. Just my name being taken in the same sentence as Yash Chopra will make my family very proud."

Talking about Ranbir Kapoor's Jagga Jasoos, he said, "I am very excited, almost nervous about the prospect of Jagga Jasoos. I'll be there first day, first show to watch the film and I wish everybody does, because this is the most hugely talented director and actor coming together."
