Shah Rukh Khan: 'Playing a monkey in Ram Leela shows made me confident of performing in front of thousands'

Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan, who will be soon seen hosting talent show Got Talent World Stage Live, got nostalgic about his Delhi days while at the press conference relating to the announcement of the talent show. Talking about the need for a platform to showcase talent, SRK said, ''During my childhood in Delhi, I used to play a monkey in the Ram Leela shows, which are watched by many as it is a big thing over in Delhi. At the time, I just had to say 'Jai', when others called out Bolo Siyapati Ram Chandra ki. However, that gave me the confidence to perform in front of thousands of people.'' The superstar also spoke about how he would mimic other actors and also come up with 'shayaris' in those days. On the Bollywood front, SRK will be next seen in Farah Khan's Happy New Year, which also stars Deepika Padukone, Abhishek Bachchan, Boman Irani, Sonu Sood and Vivaan Shah.
