Shah Rukh spoke warmly about his relationship with Virat Kohli, describing him as the “son-in-law” of the Bollywood fraternity due to his marriage to actress Anushka Sharma. “ 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. “ he said.

Shah Rukh Khan’s friendship with Virat Kohli
Shah Rukh Khan’s friendship with Kohli goes beyond the cricket field, as he’s also collaborated with Anushka Sharma in films like ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’ and ‘Jab Tak Hai Jaan.’ He even attended the couple’s wedding in 2017, cementing their bond further.
The actor recounted a humorous moment when he taught Kohli the dance steps from the title song of his film ‘Pathan.’ He noticed that Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja tried to recreate the dance moves during an India cricket match but with less-than-stellar results.
“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,”,” Shah Rukh joked.
