When Shah Rukh Khan arrived to take Imran Khan’s autograph, former Pakistan PM reprimanded
After the Pahalgam terror attack, the Indian Army destroyed several terrorist bases in Pakistan under Operation Sindoor. Since then, there were situations like war between the two countries. Even though there has been a ceasefire between India and Pakistan, the stress has not come down yet.
An anecdote of Shah Rukh Khan is going viral amidst the ongoing tension between India and Pakistan. In fact, former Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan scolded Shah Rukh Khan for asking for autographs. This is the time when neither Shah Rukh Khan was a superstar nor Imran Khan Prime Minister of Pakistan.
It was revealed by Shah Rukh Khan himself during an interview. Shahrukh had told that he used to be a fan of cricketer Imran Khan. He had told, at that time the match was being played between India and Pakistan in Delhi. Not a single Pakistani batsman went on in that match and the condition of the Pak team became very bad.
Shah Rukh said, I was watching that match in the stadium when I got a chance to take an autograph from Imran Khan. As soon as I reached him, he angrily scolded me and reprimanded me. He asked Gusse to move me out of the way.
Shah Rukh told that at the 2008 travel with style event, he got a chance to meet Imran Khan again. In this meeting, Shah Rukh told him the story of the first meeting, which he laughed at a lot.
