Give it to Shah Rukh Khan to reel in attention. In a new advertisement for streaming giant Disney+ Hotstar, Shah Rukh is seen joking about his fear of staying away from OTT platforms, something that his fans believe is an indication of his upcoming debut on the platform.
The video begins with Shah Rukh waving at his fans from his balcony as he takes pride in the fact that no star manages to pull such a huge crowd outside their house. But his manager tells him that he is not sure about the superstar’s future because barring him, all major stars have joined the OTT bandwagon. Shah Rukh shared the video on social media, and much to his fans’ surprise, captioned it, “Hmmmm….Picture toh abhi back hai….mere doston…#SiwaySRK.”
Shah Rukh's close friend and filmmaker Karan Johar shared the video and wrote, “Never thought I’d see the day when even the Baadshah of Bollywood feels FOMO. Now I’ve seen everything!! @iamsrk.”
Actor Ranveer Singh praised the superstar’s sense of humour in the ad. He wrote, “INKA SANS OF HUMOR TOH ALAG HAI BHAISAHAB!!! @iamsrk KO BHI FOMO HO SAKTA HAI??” On the work front, Shah Rukh is currently shooting for filmmaker Atlee’s yet-untitled auctioneer with South star Nayanthara. He is also working on Siddharth Anand’s action film ‘Pathan’ with Deepika Padukone and John Abraham.
