Shah Rukh Khan’s fandom extends way beyond India and a wholesome video from Shoaib Akhtar proves just that. Pakistan made an almost miraculous turnaround in the ongoing T20 World Cup, shedding off a dismal start to qualify for the semifinals after defeating Bangladesh at the Adelaide Oval, their path eased by Netherlands choking South Africa. Pakistan will now clash with New Zealand for the semifinals in Sydney on November 9. Shoaib Akhtar spoke to some Pakistani cricket fans standing outside his car and made a wholesome video with them.
The fans conveyed their wishes and prayers for the Pakistan cricket team, and also shared their suggestions for betterment. Just as Akhtar was about to sign off, the group of fans started enthusiastically pointing to their friend who turned out to be an SRK fan. On being asked, the fan began to flawlessly rattle off Shah Rukh’s dialogue from his iconic movie Baadshah. In fact, the dialogue went on for so long that Akhtar had to interrupt: “Beta Shah Rukh Khan hai, itne lambe dialogue nahi bolte.”
“Awaam ki awaz. Pakistan cricket team ko mashwaray. Aur @iamsrk se mohabbat,” Akhtar captioned the video.

It does speak volumes about the nature of people when love for an actor shines through even in a context where India and Pakistan are considered archrivals.
