What it was like for Shah Rukh Khan to pick up Kajol for the film's poster

“One thing that comes to my mind is how I got into that position by the way. Ek toh bechara Shah Rukh kandhe pe uthaake... mujhe itna bura lag raha tha uske liye, itna bura lag raha tha (Poor Shah Rukh was standing with me on his shoulder, I was feeling so bad for him). I was like, ‘are you sure you can do this?’ He said, ‘Don’t worry, I am strong.' I was like, ‘ya, but you have to carry me on your shoulder. Will you be able to?'"

Agreeing that it looked effortless, Kajol said, “I was really worried about him. I think he took a hit on his masculinity that ‘How can you say that to me? I am a guy.' He very sweetly carried me and didn't make me feel heavy at all… Later, he had a frozen shoulder. Us waqt tha ‘wow’ (that time it was wow).”
