Shah Rukh Khan and Sourav Ganguly lit up the otherwise disappointing night at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. Rain played spoilsport and the much-awaited match between the Kolkata Knight Riders and Punjab Kings was dismissed. However, the legendary meeting of Sourav Dada and SRK kind of compensated. The video from the adorable star moment is now going viral on social media.

Shah Rukh Khan's, Sourav Ganguly share a warm hug at Eden Gardens

Soon after the match got abandoned, the official Instagram and X (formerly known as Twitter) handles of Kolkata Knight Riders shared a video capturing Shah Rukh meeting Sourav off the field. Soon, the video went viral with fans sending love from across social media.


The video was posted with a caption that read, “When the KING met the PRINCE OF BENGAL.”


In the video, Shah Rukh Khan is seen chatting with Sourav before the two share a warm hug. Injured pacer Harshit Rana, who is currently out of the tournament, also makes an appearance alongside them, as does Shah Rukh’s manager, Pooja Dadlani.


Many netizens commented on the video and shared their love for the iconic moment.


One fan wrote, " Ask the king to make him the Coach or the Director at KKR and you will see the magic….Venky and his decisions post a winning season are totally beyond comprehension and that is where you need someone like dada to ensure consistency!!”


While another KKR and SRK fan commented, " Always stand and love with kkr,” while another comment read, “Love&Respect Mr.Shah Rukh Khan 33❤️.”
