Shah Rukh Khan essays the role of a vertically-challenged person in the film. At the trailer launch, he talked about Salman suggesting him the film and later agreeing to do a cameo. “It’s not true that he (Aanand L Rai) asked a lot of people. Salman had actually called me and said, ‘there’s this film, do it.’ The reason he came and did that song was because of this. He wanted to be a part of the film."

"Salman is a wonderful human being. For him to remember that a year later or months later when the film was actually being told to Katrina to come back and say ‘I want to be a part of this film because I’ve heard this film.’ It was very dignified, decent of him,” SRK added.
