Jacqueline Fernandez is currently awaiting the release of her movie A Gentleman, and she’s excited. She’s paired opposite Sidharth Malhotra in this one, and she evidently likes him as a co-star.
Quiz Jackie on which other co-star she thinks has a gentleman quality, and the actress gets tongue tied. Saif Ali Khan, her co-star from Race 2, she says after much deliberation. “Saif is one star who is a thorough gentleman. If a lady is accompanying him, he will open the door of the car, and until she’s seated comfortably, he will not move to his seat. I think Saif has other qualities which make him a very meticulous person. Every woman likes these qualities in men.”
Jacqueline also goes on to sing praises of Shah Rukh Khan. “I’ve not worked with him in any film, but whenever he meets, he’s a proper gentleman. He’s one star who also knows how to respect towards any women,” she says.
She lets us in on a little secret. “I remember my mom and I were attending a party, where we met Shah Rukh. As soon as I introduced my mom to him, he took her hands in his, kissed them and touched them to his eyes. He took all her blessings. My mom was so impressed with his courteous gesture. Whenever we discuss this with anyone, she happily praises this gesture to them. He wins the hearts of young and old alike by extending his respect to all. It is a gentleman’s quality,” she smiles.
