The Pillow Talk crooner said, "I personally wasn't a huge fan until I met him. I realised how humble he is. Really showed a different side to him. He always came across as slightly arrogant in the movies to me but when I met him in real life, he was so nice. He just completely changed my opinion of him."

Zayn, who is dating American-Palestinian model Gigi Hadid once again, also revealed that he is a huge fan of SRK's starrer Devdas. "Bollywood is so impeccable. If you ever get a chance to watch a good Bollywood movie, watch Devdas. Have you seen Devdas? It's got Shah Rukh Khan in it. You know who Shah Rukh Khan is?” he praised during the interview.
