King Khan calls Virat ‘Bollywood’s Damaad’
Shahrukh Khan spoke openly about Virat Kohli during a conversation with Star Sports. King Khan said, “I have spent a lot of time with her. He is very cute and I like him very much. I would say that he is the Damaad (son-in-law) of Bollywood. I have known Virat and Anushka for a long time. Have also spent quality time with both. I knew them since they were dating each other and I was working with Anushka in the film. Because of this he spent a lot of time with us and the conversation between us started becoming friendly.”
King Khan says, “I taught Kohli to dance on Pathaan”
Shahrukh Khan further said, “I have also taught Virat Kohli to dance on the title track song of ‘Pathan’. I have seen him teaching dance to Ravindra Jadeja in a match. I saw both of them dancing, but the very next moment I felt bad seeing both of them dancing so badly. So I thought I would teach Virat a little dance. So that when he dances in the next World Cup or any championship, he will call me to teach him the steps.”
