Shah Rukh Khan once offered Rs 5,000 for a film title, with Ranbir Kapoor coming to the rescue, NDTV reports. The incident is linked to Jab Harry Met Sejal, whose unusual promotional campaign drew attention despite the film’s poor box-office performance. The source does not provide further details about the title or explain how Kapoor helped. It does, however, frame the episode as part of the film’s distinctive publicity effort. The film featured Khan and was remembered more for its campaign than for its theatrical result.
