I must mention Shah Rukh Khan," Preity continues. "He's outstanding in the film. Don't you think he's convincing as the old man? Shah Rukh and I had done Mani Ratnam's Dil Se together. Then, after a long gap, we did Kal Ho Naa Ho. After Veer-Zaara, don't you think we make quite a pair?
"And we had such a fabulous script! I don't think an actor can rise above the material given to her. But incompetent actors can pull down a good script. Trust me on that!" Preity exclaims.
She hopes to be cast opposite SRK again. "He's such a helpful and selfless co-star. I don't think my performance would be half of what it was without him. During the shooting, I tripped and blacked out. He was always there to lend me a helping hand. He would go out of his way to co-operate. His commitment to the project was complete. Look how beautifully he performed. When he reads the poem in the courtroom, there isn't a single dry eye in the audience."
