NEW DELHI: Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) co-owner and Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan expressed his admiration for star Indian batter
Virat Kohli
, stating, "I just love him."
Speaking on his relationship with Kohli, Shah Rukh said, "I spent a lot of time with him, I just love him. We say that he is our son-in-law, he is our fraternity's 'Damaad'. I have known him the most compared to other players.
I have known Virat and Anushka for a long time, and spent a lot of time with them.
"I have known him since his dating period was going on and I was shooting the film with Anushka. So, he spent many days with us, and became very friendly," the KKR co-owner told Star Sports.
Shah Rukh and Virat share a special connection beyond the screen. Having collaborated with Virat's wife and actress
Anushka Sharma
in multiple films like 'Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi' and 'Jab Tak Hai Jaan', Shah Rukh has developed a close bond with the couple.
He even graced their wedding ceremony in 2017, marking a memorable moment in their friendship. Beyond their on-screen collaborations, their off-screen interactions reflect a genuine and enchanting camaraderie.
"So, I taught him the
Pathan movie
title song dance steps. I saw him in one of the India matches, he tried to do the dance with
Ravindra Jadeja
in the match. They were trying to do that dance step, I was very sad that they were doing it so badly! I told them that let me make you learn the steps so that in the next World Cup and other Championships, whenever you dance at least you will call me and ask how to do the steps," SRK added.
