Shah Rukh Khan once revealed that he prefers working with female film directors, and he shared a humorous reason for this. He said, “Men tend to compartmentalize their feelings, but women are more subtle and expansive. I think I enjoy working with women because of their sensitivity. Honestly, I don’t want to undermine the importance of great male directors, who are also visually brilliant, like Sanjay Leela Bhansali, Karan Johar, or Mani Ratnam.”
