New Delhi: The much-awaited Netflix docu-series ‘The Romantics’, which is a tribute to the legacy of Yash Chopra, YRF and its cultural impact on India and Indians for the past 50 years, has been released to a huge acclaim.

In the docu-series, the global megastar Shah Rukh Khan talks about how he perfected his stammer in ‘Darr’, and revealed how he used to bounce off crazy ideas to nail his villainous act in the Yash Chopra blockbuster.

In a video released by the makers on Wednesday, SRK said, “I had a classmate who had a stammer and then we did some little study, some BBC documentary where they talked about that people's minds become aware to one sound, and it's like a sharp current. So, you can't say the word because you become aware of a sound. Let's make him aware of the woman he loves the most, her name. So, I only stammer on the word Kiran. It was just for that one word because he's so aware of her.”

“I had some really fantastically stupid ideas, like I remember once going to Adi and saying, can I make this phone call hanging upside down? Adi said ‘Dad won't allow that.’ Sometimes he would come and tell me that listen I think dad is not going to take a close up of this. I think you did very well. So, you suggest, if I do it, he'll turn me down. So, we were like the filters who kind of help each other with Yash Ji,” added SRK.

From Aamir Khan to Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan to Ranbir Kapoor, Amitabh Bachchan to Ranveer Singh, Rani Mukerji to Hrithik Roshan, Katrina Kaif to Anushka Sharma, the mega-stars and icons of Hindi cinema have come together to speak about Yash Chopra and YRF’s contribution to Indian cinema in ‘The Romantics’.

‘The Romantics’ has been directed by Oscar & Emmy-nominated film-maker Smriti Mundhra.

Netflix, in this four-part docu-series, features 35 leading personalities from the film industry, who have closely worked with YRF through its 50 year glorious existence.
