At a recent event, Shah Rukh Khan met scientists from the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). On stage at the CNN-News18 Indian of the Year 2023 event on Wednesday, they also posed for pictures together. Following the release of a video showing their interaction, Shah Rukh is being praised by many for ensuring that Palanivel Veeramuthuvel, the project director of the Chandrayaan-3 mission and a “shy ISRO scientist,” did not hide in the background during group photos.
After sharing a clip from the event, one Reddit user commented, “This modest act of Shah Rukh Khan (SRK) went unnoticed. SRK was too nervous to stand in front of the ISRO scientist who was offering him (SRK) a place to stand during the group photo. However, SRK drew him back to stand by his side. What a gentleman.”
Shah Rukh Khan’s heartfelt gesture:
This humble act of Shah Rukh Khan went unnoticed. An ISRO Scientist was offering his place to him during the group photograph and going to stand somewhere else as he was too nervous in front of him, but SRK pulled him back to stand alongside him. What a man.

He is the paragon of a humble, secure, and well-brought-up man raised by remarkable parents—an incredible man that's what he is.

Met him last year along with few more brand partners, he was literally hugging and shaking hands with everyone who came to meet.
Met another big celebrity before that and we were strictly asked to not shake hands.
Felt the difference there itself

Was the 1st thing I noticed yesterday during the group pic. SRK is always soo humble ??
Made me think of the Jawan success meet when he sat on the ground— Esha Singh ? (@eshasrk) January 11, 2024
I’ve met SRK in person at HAL airport , he’s really humble and won’t shy away from photographs with ordinary people.

Little things like these don’t make the man but indicate what the man, actually is.

On the work front, 2023 was Shah Rukh Khan’s year. He engraved his name in history by becoming the highest-grosser Indian actor of 2023. Yes, you have read that right. Also, he tops the list for getting the highest number of footfalls in a single year at the theatres. By delivering three blockbusters in a year he has left everyone impressed. Shah Rukh Khan started 2023 with a bang by delivering his first film ‘Pathaan‘ along with Sidharth Anand. In September he broke his own record by featuring in Atlee’s ‘Jawan.’ In the most recent, he ended the year by collaborating with Rajkumar Hirani in ‘Dunki.‘
