Actor Shah Rukh Khan was over the moon as his IPL team entered the finals of the ongoing season of the annual cricketing event. While celebrating Kolkata's win against Hyderabad in Tuesday's match, along with his children Suhana and AbRam, the actor mistakenly interrupted an on-ground live show. The moment he realised it, Shah Rukh apologised to former cricketers Akaash Chopra, Parthiv Patel, and Suresh Raina, who were analysing the match.
A video clip, which is being widely shared on the internet, shows Shah Rukh waving at the crowd during KKR's lap of honour. At one point, he didn't realise that he had come in front of the camera and interrupted a live show. The moment he realised it, he apologised to Akaash Chopra with folded hands, saying, "I am so sorry." The former cricketer tells him, "Arre, it's absolutely fine, you made our day."
Shah Rukh then moves forward and hugs Parthiv Patel and Suresh Raina. Suhana Khan, who was behind her father, laughed at his goof-up. Later, Chopra told the audience what just happened on the ground. He said, "Oh, what a man! Legend! He did not even realise that he walked into the show. He was very apologetic, but I said, ‘You made our day. You are the showstopper," Aakash said.
Shah Rukh is the co-owner of the IPL team KKR. Suresh Raina shared a couple of pictures of the moment and wrote, "It was wonderful catching up with the always humble @iamsrk today. Despite his superstar status, he maintains his down-to-earth demeanor, showcasing humility in every interaction. Congratulations to KKR for making it to the finals! #KKR #shahrukhkhan @am.darzi (sic)."
Earlier, KKR captain Shreyas Iyer spoke about how Shah Rukh's presence changes the mood of the team. "His presence in the team adds zest to the team environment. The attitude and approach of the team automatically change," Iyer said.
Meanwhile, Shah Rukh Khan is gearing up for his next film, tentatively titled 'King'. It will probably also star Suhana Khan, but the makers are yet to make an official announcement.
