SRK gave acting lessons to a bunch of budding actors working in his next home production

King Khan would often turn teacher and teach acting to the young actors who star in his home production Always Kabhi Kabhi (AKK) which is being directed by Roshan Abbas.

Narrating his experience, Roshan said, "When I would narrate scenes, Shah Rukh would hear them and start enacting the scene.

It was a treat to see him play out the scenes himself. He would interpret and change lines, which helped get the right emotions. We often rewrote the scenes after watching him act, as he would say things that we had written in a paragraph, in just a look."

Creative freedom

Roshan added that in spite of his busy schedule, SRK was actively involved during the shooting of the film. "Shah Rukh saw bits of the shoot after every schedule and made suggestions.

Shah Rukh's inputs started with the language, as kids today speak very differently.

He encouraged us to talk to teens and shared his experiences. Besides, his inputs in music were invaluable. However, he let me have a free hand when it came to creativity."

Buzz is that Roshan had written the play Grafitti from which Always Kabhi Kabhi has been adapted.

Roshan said, "Graffiti was about kids passing out from school in 1999 while AKK is set in 2010. While the emotions remain the same, the language and mediums of communication have changed."

Though Shah Rukh has produced the film, he didn't act in it not even a guest appearance. Roshan said, "Our leads are four teens with a few teachers and parents forming the other people they play off against.

No role was big enough for Shah Rukh to play and I wouldn't waste him in a cameo. His inputs and support is what we needed and you will see his touch in the promos."
