Shah Rukh, John and Drish while shooting for the commercial

A star's charisma can sometimes be overwhelming. Ask 16-year-old Drish, who is the new face in the Pepsi commercial starring Shah Rukh Khan and John Abraham.

Drish might look like a cool dude when he addresses Shah Rukh Khan Khan as uncle in the latest Pepsi commercial, which has just been aired on television. But the reality is that the kid almost broke down in front of Shah Rukh.

Says a source close to the unit," This kid didn't know how to react when he saw Shah Rukh and just started crying and even had trouble performing in front of SRK. He kept wondering how he would enact the scene in which he had to call SRK 'uncle' and ask him to move out of his way so that he could get hold his Pepsi can."

The ad film's director Prasoon Pandey confirms and says," Any newcomer will be overwhelmed to see an icon as big as SRK in front of him. It is quite logical something like that could happen."

Pandey apparently had to do a lot of retakes with Drish, who was finding it difficult to concentrate on the shoot after meeting SRK.

"Retakes are quite a normal thing on every set. So, there is absolutely nothing wrong in retaking the same scene," adds Pandey.

Pandey says," Shah Rukh and John not only acted in the commercial but also gave their creative inputs. They have even written some of the dialogues for the ad film. My agency's creative team and the two actors sat down to chalk the dialogues of the commercial."

It maybe recalled here even Shahid Kapur, who shot his first commercial with Shah Rukh, Rani and Kajol before the release of Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, too had got nervous on meeting the superstar. Even Dia Mirza couldn't help being nervous when she had to bite the biscuit off from Shah Rukh's mouth in a recent commercial. Sometimes, she was unable to bite properly, and sometimes her expression went wrong and nervousness clearly showed on her face.
