‘Pillars of KKR’ – Fans react as Gautam Gambhir meets ‘King Of Hearts’ Shah Rukh Khan

Former India cricketer turned analyst Gautam Gambhir was one of the most promising cricketers of his time and serves as a source of inspiration for young and aspirant cricketers. Notably, the star opener has taken the Kolkata Knight Riders to the epitome of the level where they deserve to be, as he guided the franchise to win two IPL titles in 2012 and 2014 under his captaincy.

Those were the most glorious years for KKR in the IPL, and following his captaincy, the side is still searching for its first win. In addition, the southpaw is now part of the Lucknow Super Giants as the head coach, where his team was knocked out in the Eliminator clash in 2022 and 2023. Meanwhile, the 2011 World Cup-winning star has recently met Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan, who has been enjoying the success of his recently released blockbuster movie Jawan.

Notably, the movie is creating history at the box office, and it seems the former KKR skipper has already watched it out and has enjoyed the thriller action featuring Shah Rukh Khan. The movie has crossed the mark of 500 crore. Gautam Gambhir clicked a photograph with the owner of the KKR franchise and posted it on social media platforms while sharing the heartfelt note.

Shah Rukh Khan is not just the king of Bollywood but the king of hearts: Gautam Gambhir

The 41-year-old cricketer says that the actor-producer is not only the king of Bollywood, but he is the king of hearts. In addition, the former India opener feels there is so much to learn from the KKR owner, calling him simply the best. Notably, the post has gone viral and has been well shared on social media platforms.

“He’s not just the king of Bollywood but the king of hearts. Every time we meet I go back with endless love and respect. So much to learn from u. Simply the best  SRK @iamsrk,” Gautam Gambhir wrote in his X account.
