Shah Rukh Khan turned 60 on Sunday, and the internet was flooded with love — but one wish truly stood out! Shilpa Shetty, who made her debut opposite Shah Rukh Khan in Baazigar, shared a heartfelt post calling him the “true King of hearts” and her “first hero.”

Never one to miss a chance for wit, SRK replied, “Thank u Shilpa… Yes Gen A to Z need to learn the art of romance… but they should remember not to go on rooftops like in Baazigar. Love u, big hugs!” — and fans can’t stop gushing over his classic charm and humor!

Meanwhile, Shah Rukh Khan cut a special three-tier black cake with a crown on his 60 birthday at a special event hosted for his fans.

Organised at Mumbai's Bal Gandharva Rang Mandir Auditorium in Bandra on Sunday evening, the packed auditorium saw Shah Rukh posing for a video with fans in the backdrop, answering their questions that ranged from his career, his children's aspirations and regrets.

Shah Rukh, who also revealed the first look of his highly anticipated theatrical outing "King", also recited dialogues from the teaser of the Siddharth Anand-directed movie.

The actor shared a video on his social media handles from the event, which had him surrounded by fans. In the caption of the post, he thanked fans for making his birthdays special. SRK fans travel from different corners of India and the world to see a glimpse of his favourite star.

"Thank you for making my birthday special as always. Full of gratitude… and those of you I couldn't meet, I will see you soon. In the theatres and on the next birthday. Love u," he posted on X on Sunday.

Shah Rukh has a tradition of greeting the fans from his house Mannat on his birthday, but this year he had to skip it following "crowd control issues". He usually waves at fans from the elevated balcony of Mannat, his sea-facing home in Bandra, on birthdays.
