Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan greeted a horde of cheering fans gathered outside his home in Mumbai on the occasion of Eidul Fitr, reported Hindustan Times. As has become tradition, the actor appeared before his adoring public on his balcony and acknowledged the crowd with a wave and a smile.
The crowd had been gathered outside the Bollywood king’s home since early in the morning. The actor shared a video of the scene on X, and tweeted, "Eid Mubarak everyone and thank you for making my day so special. May Allah bless us all with love, happiness and prosperity."

Clad in a traditional white kurta and matching pyjama with his hair tied up in a bun, the renowned star climbed up onto the railing to give his fans a better view, saluted to the crowd, and blew kisses. Fans of the superstar were in awe of the magnetic pull he still commands. According to at least one fan, other Bollywood actors can only dream of aspiring to Shah Rukh’s star power.
Absolute madness.. such megastardom is literally a dream for other bollywood actors !!

Number of people who gathered outside Mannat today just for SRK's glimpse are way more than the number of people who actually bought tickets to watch last films of Salman & Akshay in theatre…
Others were in agreement, with one user commenting that the global love for the actor radiated beyond his films.
I think it's way beyond just Indian cinema. He is loved and cherished in everything that he has touched.

In staunch agreement with the sentiment, another user took to the micro-blogging site to clamour for more films from the beloved actor.
King of Bollywood❤️Your films are being missed on these national holidays. Be healthy and announce your next soon💥

Shah Rukh was last seen in the film Dunki, released in December last year. Focusing on immigration and featuring an ensemble cast, the offering boasts a set of colourful characters portrayed by actors such as Boman Irani, Taapsee Pannu, Vicky Kaushal, Vikram Kochhar, and Anil Grover. However, despite the outpouring of love and admiration for Shah Rukh across social media, Dunki received mixed reviews from audiences and critics alike.
