Shah Rukh Khan also sang Aankhon Me Teri for the actress. On his chemistry with Deepika Padukone, the actor said "You know me and Deepika just need an excuse to romance, to hug, to kiss. So any question you ask me, I will just kiss Deepika Padukone's hand and that will be the answer."
When asked about her chemistry with SRK, Deepika said, "Well it was interesting, the chemistry was so palpable but characters were so different. What made it special was the relationship. The love and trust that we share. I have great respect for him as an artist and even as a human being."
The actress added that she wouldn't be here if it weren't for SRK. "I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for Shah Rukh. He has given me confidence. It is that relationship that eventually translates on screen," she said.
The actress recalled what SRK told her during their first film together (Om Shanti Om) and said Shah Rukh told her: "Try and work with people you think you will have a good time with. More importantly, the intention that we made this film with is pure love and joy and to bring joy to people's livers."
