In the commercial, Shah Rukh and Amitabh play themselves

(Web Desk) - Shah Rukh Khan said he reunited with Amitabh Bachchan for a ‘special project.’

As his film Jawan hits the theatres, that special project has dropped too. 

Shah Rukh Khan recently revealed that he collaborated with Amitabh Bachchan for a ‘special project.’

On Thursday, as his action thriller Jawan hit the theatres, Shah Rukh's special project with Amitabh was dropped online as well. It's a commercial for a popular masala brand that Amitabh has been endorsing for years. 

In the commercial, Shah Rukh and Amitabh play themselves. They're seen exiting their respective vanity fans as they attempt to head back home after shoot.

They're interrupted by the paparazzi waiting outside, who hound them and prevent them from enjoying the biryani (Lucknowi for Amitabh, Hyderabadi for Shah Rukh) waiting for them at home. 

The two stars then make eye contact, and in a chorus, point in opposite directions and scream “Alia,” making the paps run away in that direction in order to capture Alia Bhatt on camera.

This allows Amitabh and Shah Rukh to then make a dash together towards their respective cars and in turn, respective biryanis.
