"I have tried my level best to do justice to the character I have played in the movie. I hope I can match upto the capabilities of Mr. Bachchan," SRK told reporters on reaching Gandhi Nagar railway station in Jaipur.
SRK arrived from New Delhi on the 'Blue Billion Express' along with Priyanka Chopra to cheer the Indian team against England in their first Champions Trophy match at Sawai Man Singh Stadium.
