Actor Shah Rukh Khan was elated as his IPL team, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), secured a spot in the finals of the ongoing season. While celebrating KKR’s victory against Hyderabad on Tuesday, Shah Rukh, accompanied by his children Suhana and AbRam, inadvertently interrupted a live on-ground show. Upon realizing his mistake, the actor promptly apologized to former cricketers Akaash Chopra, Parthiv Patel, and Suresh Raina, who were analyzing the match.
A widely shared video clip captures Shah Rukh waving to the crowd during KKR’s lap of honour. In his enthusiasm, he accidentally stepped in front of the camera, disrupting the live broadcast. Realizing his error, Shah Rukh immediately apologized to Akaash Chopra with folded hands, saying, “I am so sorry.” Chopra reassured him, responding, “Arre, it’s absolutely fine, you made our day.”
