Mamata Banerjee wishes ‘brother’ SRK on his birthday

West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee extends warm birthday wishes to 'brother' Shah Rukh Khan: 'May you continue to enrich Indian cinema'

Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan celebrates his 60th birthday, marking six decades of charm, success, and stardom. Fondly known as the King of Bollywood, SRK’s big day has turned into a nationwide celebration, with fans gathering outside his residence and social media buzzing with heartfelt wishes. Among the many greetings pouring in, one special message stood out, from West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, who shares a close bond with the superstar.

Mamata Banerjee sends heartfelt wishes to Shah Rukh Khan

On the occasion of his 60th birthday, Mamata Banerjee took to X (formerly Twitter) to wish her “brother” Shah Rukh Khan in the sweetest way. She wrote, “A Very Happy Birthday to my brother Shah Rukh Khan! May you continue to enrich Indian cinema with your remarkable talent and charisma. @iamsrk”.

Mamata Banerjee earlier expressed concern for SRK

This isn’t the first time Mamata Banerjee has expressed her affection for the ‘Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge’ actor. Earlier in July, when reports surfaced that the actor had injured his muscles while shooting for his upcoming film ‘King’, she shared a heartfelt message on social media. She wrote, “Reports regarding my brother Shah Rukh Khan sustaining muscular injuries during shooting make me worried. Wish him speedy recovery. @iamsrk (sic)”.The ‘Pathaan’ actor was reportedly taken to the USA for treatment and took a short break from filming to recover.

Mamata Banerjee and SRK share warm friendship

As reported by IANS, over the years, Mamata Banerjee and Shah Rukh Khan have built a special friendship that often makes headlines. SRK also shares a deep connection with West Bengal as the co-owner of the IPL team Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), which has its home base in Kolkata.

Shah Rukh Khan to appear next in ‘King’

Shah Rukh Khan, who was last seen in ‘Dunki’, is all set to return to the big screen in his upcoming film ‘King’. The film also stars his daughter Suhana Khan, along with Abhishek Bachchan and Deepika Padukone. Fans are eagerly waiting to see the father-daughter duo share the screen together for the first time. The actor also recently made a cameo in his son, Aryan Khan’s directorial debut, ‘The Ba***ds of Bollywood’, reminding everyone that no one can steal the spotlight quite like SRK. Go to Source
