‘Game Of Thrones’ actor Sophie Turner has joined the long list of international stars who have openly admired Bollywood, showering praise on Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone. In a recent interview, Sophie spoke fondly about Indian cinema and didn’t hesitate to crown Shah Rukh Khan as the GOAT—Greatest Of All Time.Calling it a difficult choice, she said, “My gosh, that’s tough! I mean, Shah Rukh Khan is the GOAT, right? But I love Deepika Padukone, I think she’s amazing. I loved watching RRR,” she told Firstpost.The actor also revealed her desire to be part of a Hindi film someday, particularly drawn to the grandeur and artistry of Bollywood. “I’d actually love to be in a Bollywood movie. I’d love to do the dance. I think it’s such a spectacle and they’re so beautiful. The production design is so unlike anything I think we will ever see on a Western film set. I’d love to be in a Bollywood movie,” she added.Though Sophie has not worked in Indian cinema, she did visit the country in 2018 to attend the wedding celebrations of her former brother-in-law Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra, an event that brought together global and Bollywood stars.Sophie is far from the only global name to sing Shah Rukh Khan’s praises. Back in 2013, Daniel Radcliffe, best known as Harry Potter—spoke warmly about the actor, saying, “Shah Rukh Khan is really famous in Britain and I’m really fond of him. He is definitely an epitome of style and class!”Similarly, in a 2011 interview, Twilight star Kristen Stewart expressed her admiration for the Bollywood icon. “Well, I am a big fan of Shah Rukh Khan, who is an epitome of romance in Bollywood. I would love to work with him in Bollywood movies too, and for that I am also looking forward to learning Hindi. I have also seen the promos of his latest movie Ra.One which are very impressive and I just loved his look in the movie. I’ll definitely watch the movie also. He is truly an inspiration to me. He is a charmer.”
