Karan Johar known for making designer films recently shot key sequences of his “My Name Is Khan” in a slum with Slumdog Millionaire kid Tanay Cheda. Tanay, who played the 'middle' Jamal in Slumdog Millionaire, made Shah Rukh Khan's childhood look convincing for the film.
The director chose him to play young Shah Rukh because of Tanay's instant connectivity with the Mumbai slums and also because of the Western audience.

The scenes with Tanay were shot in Borivali with Zarina Wahab, who plays Shah Rukh's mother. The director now intends to cast Tanay as junior SRK whenever required, much in the way that Master Mayur played the young Amitabh Bachchan in a series of films.
