“In India, films mostly release on Fridays, so on Thursday evenings, at my home in Mumbai, a day before my movie releases, I give myself a two-and-a-half-hour bath and rinse myself of all my work. The bath-salt dips are immensely pleasant for me.” Richard asked SRK to spill out specifications about his bath and whether he surrounds the bath area with candles. To which SRK replied, “You will have to come and take a bath with me. I am not going to reveal anything here (laughs).”
