Since the arrest of his son Aryan Khan in a drug case, actor Shah Rukh Khan hasn’t stepped out for shoots, but that doesn’t mean work has come to a grinding halt. Instead, his body double, Prashant Walde, is ensuring the show goes on.

At the moment, Walde is shooting portions of Khan’s latest project with filmmaker Atlee, and some commercial advertisements. “The shooting of the film with Atlee is going as per plan. I’ve been shooting these projects for the last 20 days, and that hasn’t changed after recent developments,” Walde tells us, adding that the only difference is that Khan isn’t coming to the set at the moment. The stand-in actor is also ready to jet off to Spain for the next schedule of Pathan.

According to Walde, the superstar has asked the camera to not stop rolling even in his absence as he understands how the delay might affect the income of many crew members. “Our work has resumed after so many difficulties after the lockdown. The whole team from South is here for the shoot of the film. Aur unke kaam ke saath lakhon logon ka rozgaar juda hai, aur yeh SRK sir ko bhi maloom hai. That’s why he hasn’t asked us to stop working,” shares the body double, who has been working with Khan for the last 15 years.

Ask him about the current mood on the set, and he shares, “We are all trying to be professional, but are also disturbed on the inside ke SRK sir ke saath yeh kya problem ho gayi. But we trust him.”

While the shoot of Atlee’s film might be going smoothly, there have been several reports about Pathan’s Spain schedule being in a limbo. Walde reveals, “We all got our visas, but don’t know when we will fly out, and whether sir will join us or not. In fact, I don’t know when he’ll get back on set. But, whatever he decides, will be best for all of us.”
