Shah Rukh featured on the first episode of Bhuvan’s show Titu Talks in 2018 as part of the promotion of his film Zero. At the end of the show, Bhuvan sat on the floor near Shah Rukh’s legs. The actor massaged his head, while Bhuvan asked fans to watch Zero.

Speaking with Galatta Plus, Bhuvan said, “I was sweating because I had just removed the Titu wig. I had really long hair, and it was impromptu I didn’t know how to go about it. Also, it was the first episode of Titu Talks and Titu Mama as a character was just a month old or a couple of months old, that’s about it. I was figuring out how to bring out the character and somehow we managed to get Shah Rukh sir on the first episode. I was like how are we going to do this? I’ve never asked people to subscribe. I thought this is the right opportunity to tell him to subscribe and why not with a massage.”

Adding that the massage was his idea, Bhuvan continued, “So I asked him, ‘Can I sit between your legs and you could say ‘Subscribe to Bhuvan’s channel’. But then he went on with it, and it kept going on for a while that he had to like, ‘Chal chal hogaya (C’mon we’re done now)’.”

Zero, a romantic comedy film, was written by Himanshu Sharma and directed by Aanand L Rai. Apart from Shah Rukh, the film also featured Anushka Sharma and Katrina Kaif. The film was made on a budget of ₹200 crore and grossed ₹186 crore.
