Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Shah Rukh Khan sparked romance rumours when they collaborated on Don and Don 2, directed by Farhan Akhtar. While during the making of the first movie from the franchise, there was a buzz about growing bonding between PeeCee and SRK, by the time Don 2 was ready for release Bollywood and celebrity magazines were all carrying full-blown rumours and gossip about their affair.
Neither Priyanka nor Shah Rukh Khan has ever confirmed this, but fans believe that the throwback videos from their interactions during the promotions of the Don Movie, as well as their public events and appearances, have been quite suggestive. The desi girl has indirectly taken a jab at SRK many times although she has never referred to the Bollywood superstar as her boyfriend directly.
Priyanka slapped Shah Rukh Khan during Don 2 promotions?
A throwback clip from the times Shah Rukh and Priyanka Chopra Jonas were promoting Don 2 alongside co-producer and director Farhan Akhtar and co-producer Ritesh Sidwani has now resurfaced on the web. The video shows Farhan discussing his movie and the action scenes of Priyanka Chopra Jonas in Don and Don 2.
When Priyanka was asked about her action scenes in Don 2 she said, “Well, I play a cop in the movie and I won’t say I have a lot of action scenes.” Farhan interrupted saying, “Oh you have more action in his movie than you had in the first one." To this SRK said, “That had only one fight in the train. But this one she has a lot of fights. Lots of actions and in the climax.” The Bajirao Mastani actress in between said that she was very excited.
At that moment Farhan recalled how Shah Rukh Khan had suggested that Priyanka should scream when she hits during the action scenes so that she gets the power. Priyanka said that she did try very hard to get that scream right however, SRK said, “It was difficult for the guy she was hitting because he would start laughing.”

Priyanka said that since she was not used to doing action of hitting people it was difficult for her to portray that she was hitting a man but was not hitting him. At that moment Shah Rukh asked Priyanka to show everyone how exactly she did it. Surprisingly, Priyanka immediately hit SRK on his face and it was hard enough for everyone to hear the sound of slapping.
Later on, Shah Rukh Khan joked, “Priyanka ne Shah Rukh ko thappad mara, mara mara.”
SRK-Priyanka exuded strong chemistry
Fans wondered whether there was any need for PeeCee to hit SRK during promotions and it seemed quite odd. Moreover, they believe that the sexual tension between the two stars can be easily sensed as both of them sat very close to each other and the way Priyanka Chopra Jonas kept on giggling and blushing all through the interaction.
