Shahrukh Khan Calls Jernade Miah the 'Next Big Star'

Share This Post


Shahrukh Khan is one of Bollywood's biggest stars! King Khan has just finished shooting his upcoming action film Ra.One in London. Shahrukh describes the film as, "Ra.One is a superhero film. There is a good guy, there is a bad guy, there is a beautiful girl, there is a wonderful singer and a fantastic director," at a press conference with his co-star Kareena Kapoor.

To celebrate the shooting's wrap, SRK threw a party and surrounded himself with friends, cast, and crew who helped bring his production together. On the guestlist for last night's event was 2 Point 9's rising star Jernade Miah. At the private affair, Shahrukh shared a conversation with Jernade which led him to ask the singer to perform for his guests. Being the gentleman that he is, Jernade treated everyone to an impromptu performance.

"Meeting SRK was such a privilege," Jernade tells Desi Hits, "I've watched so many of his films growing up. Not many people get to give an intimate performance for such an icon."

After Jernade had hit the stage, Shahrukh was sure to go over and thank Jernade. We have been told that SRK was overheard telling the young singer "You're gonna be the next big star. I love the song you just performed." Reflecting on their conversation, Jernades tells us, "He [Shahrukh Khan] gave me some really good advice. If I can achieve half of what he has, that would be incredible."

That evening Jernade sang his song "Empty Box" which has yet to be released. The song will be featured on Jernade's upcoming mixtape Double Check which is set for release in the early autumn.

Shahrukh Khan tweeted later that evening saying, "Had a wonderful wrap party for the crew.all in high spirits &danced to my songs...I hope we can celebrate the release of the film same way."

We know that getting a compliment from Shahrukh Khan must have been quite a nice treat for Jernade. With Shahrukh introducing Akon to Bollywood, perhaps Jernade will be featured on Shahrukh's next film's soundtrack.

Check out the footage of Jernade Miah performing for Shahrukh Khan as well as a taste of his upcoming song "Empty Box." Do you agree with Shahrukh Khan, is Jernade gonna be a big star?
