Superstar Shah Rukh Khan, known for his fervent support for his IPL team Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), was spotted on Monday evening at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata, cheering on his team as they battled against Delhi Capitals (DC). Accompanying him was his son AbRam, adding to the excitement of the match.
Donning a purple t-shirt, SRK could be seen thoroughly enjoying the match with AbRam in viral videos shared online. From cheering from the stands to actively participating in KKR’s training session ahead of the match, SRK’s enthusiasm as a co-owner of the team was palpable.
Adding an extra dose of fun to the practice session, SRK even showcased his cricket skills, unleashing his inner “cricketer” alongside the professional players. However, it was AbRam who stole the show during the training session, with videos surfacing of him bowling to KKR player Rinku Singh, leaving fans nostalgic at how quickly he has grown.
In the IPL match, KKR spinner Varun Chakravarthy’s stellar performance restricted DC to 153/9, with Kuldeep Yadav’s cameo innings contributing significantly. KKR currently holds the second spot on the points table, having won 5 out of their 8 games, while DC sits in fifth place with 10 points from 10 matches.
On the cinematic front, SRK made a remarkable return to the silver screen with Siddharth Anand’s ‘Pathaan’ in January 2023, marking his comeback after a four-year hiatus. The film, which showcased SRK in an action-packed role, set new records at the box office, cementing his status as one of Bollywood’s biggest stars.
Following the success of ‘Pathaan’, SRK continued his winning streak with ‘Jawan’, another action-packed venture that surpassed the Rs 1000 crore mark worldwide. Later in December, he captivated audiences with ‘Dunki’, directed by RajKumar Hirani, which tackled the issue of immigration.
While SRK hasn’t announced his next project yet, rumors suggest that he may team up with Salman Khan for ‘Tiger vs Pathaan’, a highly anticipated collaboration that has fans eagerly awaiting further details. Until the official announcement, fans can relish SRK’s presence both on and off the cricket field, as he continues to charm audiences worldwide.
