Shahrukh Khan Hails Virat Kohli as Bollywood's 'Daamad'

Khan's Affectionate Ties with Kohli
Shahrukh Khan, the charismatic co-owner of Kolkata Knight Riders, recently shared some heartfelt sentiments about Virat Kohli, the former captain of India and Royal Challengers Bangalore, in an interview with Star Sports. Dubbing Kohli as Bollywood’s ‘Daamad’ (son-in-law), Khan expressed a deep fondness for Kohli, stemming from their long-standing personal relationship.

Bonding Beyond the Cricket Field
Khan recounted his interactions with Kohli, which go back to the days when Kohli was just beginning his relationship with Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma. “I have known him the most compared to other players. I have known Virat and Anushka for a long time, spent a lot of time with them. I know him since his dating period was going on and I was shooting the film with Anushka. So, he spent many days with us, and became very friendly,” Khan elaborated.

A Memorable Encounter
Reflecting on a specific instance that symbolizes their warm camaraderie, Khan mentioned a memorable interaction with Kohli during a KKR-RCB game last season. Post-match, the two were seen sharing a light moment, even performing a signature dance step together, which was captured on camera and highlighted their close bond.

Khan's affectionate regard for Virat Kohli not only underscores the mutual respect between two of India’s biggest icons from cricket and cinema but also illustrates the unique relationships that can blossom in the intersection of sports and entertainment. As Kohli continues to make his mark on the cricket field, his connection with figures like Shahrukh Khan only adds another layer to his multifaceted public persona.
