"It's a pleasure to work with him because he's always open to suggestions. And he carries off any hairstyle effortlessly," explains Raaj Gupta, Shah Rukh's hairstylist.

Gupta found his "true calling" nine years ago over conversation and a cup of coffee, which took him from a BPO job to a stellar hairstyling career.
