Speaking to Time Out With Ankit, Chunky Panday shared that the Pathaan actor was very close with his brother Chikki. They were among the first friends during SRK's initial days in Bollywood.

He's always had that. That talent has always been there with him before he became the superstar. So, he was very confident, and he knew where he was going. I mean, yeah, of course, very proud that I've known him since then," Panday shared, adding that the Jawan actor hasn't changed a bit.
