Actress Sunny Leone, who has danced with superstar Shah Rukh Khan to a track in "Raees", says it is not just a dream come true for her but also the "best thing" that has happened in her life.
Sunny told IANS: "It was a dream come true for me to do a dance number with Shah Rukh. We all want to work with him and it actually happened... It's the best thing that has happened to me. I am so happy and proud about it.
"When you go through the struggle personally and professionally, you feel so good that something so amazing happens. I hope people like it."
The song which Sunny is dancing to with Shah Rukh is reportedly a new take on the 1980 chartbuster "Laila O Laila" from the film "Qurbaani". The original track featured Feroz Khan and Zeenat Amaan.
Sunny said she can't talk much about the dance number, but admits "it was fun".
"There are a lot of dance moves in it," she added.
About her experience of working with King Khan, she said: "He is unbelievable, he is so humble. I am so happy with the fact that I was offered this song."
Directed by Rahul Dholakia, "Raees" is set in 1980s Gujarat. It tells the story of bootlegger Raees Khan (Shah Rukh) whose business is challenged and eventually thwarted by a police officer played by Nawazuddin Siddiqui.
