The entire team of the film, including the director Imtiaz Ali, visited the city for the first time.
Shah Rukh, Anushka and Imtiaz were spotted chewing betel leaves, famously known as 'Banarasi paan'.

The culture here attracts people from across the world, the bollywood actor said, sharing his experience in London where he said, one of the city's best restaurant was named after 'Benaras'.
Anushka plays a lawyer (Sejal) while Shah Rukh plays a tourist guide (Harry) in 'Jab Harry Met Sejal' which is scheduled to release on August 4.
Earlier in the day, the actor, joined by Bhojpuri singer and BJP MPManoj Tiwari, also sang a Bhojpurisong 'Lollypop Lagelu' during a promotional event at a private institute in the city.
