Being a director is a very lonely job. So you dont just thank them, you just stand by them. For the film also, as an actor, and as a friend we all tried to stand by him (Shetty), said the superstar who is laughing all the way to the bank.
SRKs Red Chillies Entertainment co-produced Chennai Express with UTV Motion Pictures.
He added that the goodness that Shetty brought into the film has benefited everyone " him, his co-star Deepika Padukone and Disney UTV. So we all are very very thrilled and we would like to stand by him, wherever he is as a director, he added.
