Shah Rukh Khan shares a fun bond with his leading ladies off the screen. From Kajol, and Juhi to Anushka Sharma, we have seen the superstar sharing an amazing friendship with the actress. However, do you know that none of them is Shah Rukh’s best friend?
Shah Rukh Khan’s 'bestest friend' was his batchmate in acting school and the actor claims she is the one who taught him acting. She is the daughter of a popular Bollywood actress and has worked in hits like Jab We Met, Dil Dhadhakne Do and more. She is none other than Divya Seth.
