Shah Rukh Khan’s Special Mention To Virat Kohli Is Going Super Viral

In the realm where the worlds of Bollywood and cricket intersect, the bond between an actor and a cricketer is worth watching. While many actors and cricketers married each other, there were some who were acquainted in other ways. Shah Rukh Khan, the Badshah of Bollywood, and Virat Kohli, the modern-day cricketing maestro, also have similar kinds of relationships with each other.

While they do not know each other from the start and do not have family relations, their bond started out because of Anushka Sharma. Since Anushka Sharma is acquainted with both stars in their respective fields, both of them also share some kind of bond with each other. That’s why, when many people started comparing SRK and Kohli’s popularity negatively on social media, SRK referred to Kohli as his son-in-law.

Shah Rukh Khan says Virat Kohli is like his son-in-law

Shah Rukh began his #AskSRK session on X (previously Twitter) on Wednesday, September 27, when he had a break during filming. While he was answering many queries related to his work, one fan’s request stole all the limelight. A fan, who appears to be a fan of both SRK and Virat Kohli, asks SRK about his opinion of Virat Kohli. In answer to this request, Shah Rukh sent out a touching post.

Shah Rukh penned:

I love @imVkohli he is like my own and I pray always for his well being….bhai damaad jaisa hai humaara

The Badshah of Bollywood rarely discusses cricket’s “King,” Virat Kohli. In the past, one hasn’t heard much of the two talking to one another. But Anushka Sharma has played a major role in the strong relationship that exists between Virat and Shah Rukh. Virat Kohli’s wife Anushka has collaborated on several films with SRK, including her debut, Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi. In subsequent movies like Jab Tak Hai Jaan, Jab Harry Met Sejal, and Zero, Anushka acted alongside SRK.

So, according to SRK’s comment, Anushka Sharma is like his daughter or sister. That’s why he referred to Kohli as his son-in-law. SRK has never posted anything so sweet about Kohli and Anushka on social media before. However, it doesn’t mean that they don’t know each other. Their bond goes beyond the glittering realms of stardom and the cricket field. Rather, their bond delves into the intricacies of mutual admiration, shared values, and a genuine connection.

We previously saw Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja tapping to the title track of Pathaan during an international match. On social media, Shah Rukh applauded their performance.

Meanwhile, Virat Kohli is on his way to contribute to the upcoming ODI World Cup 2023. Virat, perhaps India’s finest batter, will be essential to his country’s prospects of winning the World Cup. He is also in good form and was rested between the two ODIs against Australia before returning to play in the final game.

On the other hand, SRK, after the success of Pathaan and Jawan this year, is busy shooting his upcoming movie, Dunki. Directed by Rajkumar Hirani, Dunki will also feature Taapsee Pannu as SRK’s opposite.
