Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan has sent a special birthday message to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, admiring his energy and “inspiring journey.” The actor expressed his wishes with folded hands in a video, stating that Modi’s energy at age 75 “even beats young people like us.”
Shah Rukh extended warm wishes to the Prime Minister on his birthday, praising his dedication and hard work. “Your journey from a small city to the global stage has been very inspiring,” Shah Rukh said. “Your discipline, hard work and dedication towards the country can be seen in this journey. I pray that you always stay healthy and happy.”
The video’s timing remains uncertain; however, Shah Rukh did not wear a sling on his arm. The actor paused filming for his movie King in July after a shoulder injury required him to undergo minor surgery. He recently shared that he is taking physiotherapy sessions for his shoulder and had been spotted wearing a sling during public outings last month.
Apart from Shah Rukh, several other celebrities, including Akshay Kumar, Vikrant Massey, Vicky Kaushal, and Kangana Ranaut, also wished the Prime Minister on his birthday.
Shah Rukh’s Upcoming Projects
Shah Rukh Khan, last seen in Dunki in 2023, is currently working on Siddharth Anand’s upcoming film King. The cast reportedly includes his daughter Suhana Khan, Abhishek Bachchan, Saurabh Shukla, and Jaideep Ahlawat. During a recent #AskSRK session on X (formerly Twitter), Shah Rukh confirmed that he will soon resume shooting.
He will also make a special appearance in his son Aryan Khan’s directorial debut, The Bads of Bollywood, which premieres on Netflix on September 18.
