Shahrukh meets Messi

Two superstars from two different worlds came face to face at a special event in Kolkata—the prince of football, Lionel Messi, and the King Khan of Bollywood, Shahrukh Khan. The encounter on Saturday (December 13) was not limited to just one event, but immediately went viral on the internet with handshakes, conversations, and pictures taken together.
Shahrukh Khan’s younger son, AbRam Khan, was also seen next to Messi at the event. AbRam’s smiling pictures with the football superstar further added to the emotions of the fans and created a separate frenzy on social media. Lionel Messi is visiting India as part of the ‘Goat Tour of India 2025’. As part of that tour, he arrived in Kolkata yesterday and attended a special meet and greet event. There, he met King Khan in person for the first time.
The two’s handshake, brief conversation, and friendly moments on stage at the event captivated the audience. During this time, Messi also took a separate picture with AbRam, which became one of the most talked about scenes of the event. After the event, Messi left for the city’s traditional Salt Lake Stadium. On the other hand, Shah Rukh Khan returned to Mumbai from there. However, this brief encounter in Kolkata has become a lasting memory for fans.
