SRK teamed up with Shetty for the first time in romantic comedy 'Chennai Express', which is still running superfast at the box office. The Rs.75 crore film not only earned over Rs.100 crore within first weekend, but it also crossed Rs.200 crore mark in just two weeks. Shah Rukh credits the film's success to Shetty.
'Being a director is a very lonely job. So you don't 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.
SRK's 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.u00a0
