It was a humid Sunday evening in July. The rains had just taken a break, leaving the air thick with the smell of wet earth and jasmine. Shah Rukh Khan sat in the dim green room of a popular awards show set, his signature black kurta unbuttoned at the collar, a tired but warm smile on his face. His manager, Pooja, walked in with an iPad.
At number 10: Tum Hi Ho (Aashiqui 2). He nodded respectfully. A beautiful song. Then at 8: Balam Pichkari (Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani). He smiled — Ranbir was like family. But then, at number 5, he saw it: Challa from Jab Tak Hai Jaan — his own voice, his own pain, his own longing for a woman who was no longer there in the film, but always in his heart on screen.
