Actor JD Chakravarthy recalled how he got a phone call from Shah Rukh Khan the evening before Satya's release. "He said, 'If 'Satya' is to become...disaster, what do you think we should do?' I got offended and said, 'You tell me what we should do'," JD said, adding, "Shah Rukh said, 'Replace JD...with Shah Rukh.' I understood he was joking."
