Sidhu also talked about the first time he met SRK. “I met him at Model School ground,” he said. He was in circus at the time, and one of the shows was called Fauji.

Then he said, “I only compete with myself.” This event has never left my mind. On that day, I knew this guy would do great things. His success doesn’t make him proud, he said.
