When asked if he would make it in Bollywood, Pitt quickly said that he can't work in Bollywood as he can't dance. "I wouldn't make it in Bollywood, I can't dance," Pitt told Shah Rukh Khan, to which the Raees star responded: "We can make anyone dance," adding that how easy it's to dance. "I just spread my arms and do nothing, that's a step," SRK quipped.

Pitt also enquired about the duration required to complete a Bollywood film shoot. To this, SRK said that it depends upon films. While it usually takes 70 days, it might get over in 40 days as well if no issues crop up.

Talking about his singing talent and if he can sing in Hindi films, Pitt immediately added, "I can't sing either." SRK, known for his witty nature, said: "Nor can I, someone else does from behind me."

This made Pitt spill some beans on his past experience. "In Tree of Life, I had to play musical instruments and I couldn't get the piano, so what they did was, they got a guy who could play the piano, his hands looked like mine and all I did for the camera was make expressions like I am playing it."

With Pitt's deep interest in Bollywood film-making, we wonder if Shah Rukh and the Hollywood hunk will join hands for a Bollywood film in future. If it turns out to be true, it would surely be a visual treat to both the Bollywood and Hollywood fans. 

Meanwhile, War Machine is based on the non-fiction book The Operators: The Wild and Terrifying Inside Story of America's War in Afghanistan. Directed by David Michod, the film releases worldwide on Netflix on May 26.
