Shahrukh Khan and Murli Sharma appeared together in 3 Hindi films between 2004 and 2016. Their highest-rated collaboration was Main Hoon Na (2004 — 7.0/10). Films span Main Hoon Na (2004) through Tutak Tutak Tutiya (2016).
The Shahrukh Khan & Murli Sharma partnership
After 11 years apart, they came back together for Dilwale (2015). They didn't share a set between 2004 and 2015. From Main Hoon Na (2004) to Tutak Tutak Tutiya (2016).
Main Hoon Na is the one most viewers reach for. It started with Main Hoon Na (2004).
The shape of the work
The 2000s belonged to Main Hoon Na; the 2010s to Dilwale. Shahrukh Khan acted in every film; Murli Sharma acted in all of them. Strictly Hindi cinema — they never crossed industries together.
Partnership facts
- Murli Sharma got the role of the villainous army officer in Main Hoon Na (2004) because Shah Rukh Khan personally recommended him to director Farah Khan after seeing his work in a small play.
- In Dilwale (2015), Shah Rukh insisted that Murli play his sidekick rather than a villain — a rare switch for Murli, who usually plays antagonists. SRK told him, 'You're funnier when you're on my side.'
- On the sets of Main Hoon Na, Murli Sharma taught Shah Rukh Khan how to do a proper Punjabi bhangra step for the song 'Gori Gori'. SRK still calls him 'Bhangra Master' whenever they meet.
- Their only non-Rohit Shetty collaboration was the Tamil-Hindi bilingual Tutak Tutak Tutiya (2016). The film was a rare cross-industry experiment where Murli dubbed his own lines in Tamil, and SRK did a cameo purely because Murli asked him to.
- Murli Sharma once said in an interview: 'Shah Rukh doesn't treat you like a supporting actor. On Dilwale, he'd pull me into every frame even when the shot was only on him. That's why I've never said no to any film he's asked me to be in.'
