Mumbai: Prashant Walde, best known for being Shah Rukh Khan's uncanny lookalike and long-time body in several major films, recently appeared on Maniesh Paul's popular podcast as a guest, offering an intimate glimpse into his extraordinary cinematic voyage.

In this interesting tete-a-tete, Prashant shared many anecdotes from his remarkable journey, revealing how he auditioned for "Om Shanti Om" and how he met superstar Shah Rukh Khan for the first time.

When asked by Maniesh about how it all began, Walde shared, “After my ad film with Juhi Chawla, I became famous and people started recognizing me that Jr Shah Rukh Khan had arrived. One day duplicate Dharam Ji (Dharmendra) told me to go for the audition of 'Om Shanti Om'."

He continued saying, "When I was in the make-up room, an assistant called me saying that Farah ma'am (choreographer Farah Khan) is calling you and when I was walking everyone misunderstood me with Shah Rukh Khan. I entered, Farah was on call and she looked at me with surprise and said to Shah Rukh Khan in a teasing way, 'You don't need to come here, Shah Rukh has already reached".
