Turning 59, Shah Rukh Khan was swamped with love from Bollywood stars and fans across the globe. At his special SRK Day event, he went off-script, sharing personal updates and even dropping a bombshell—he’s quit smoking for good!

‘Another good thing, I’m not smoking anymore, guys!,’ he shared. SRK joked that he thought he might feel breathless but actually felt great and was ‘catching up.’

Fans erupted with excitement, and the clip quickly went viral on Reddit. Hot takes poured in ’Better announcement than a movie!’ one fan wrote, while another added, ‘Thank god. Long live the King!’

But that wasn’t the only surprise SRK had in store. Fans have noticed he’s been spotted in caps and beanies, sparking speculation about his next role.

At the event, he dropped a hint: his iconic long hair from Pathaan is gone!

He shared, ‘Ab mere baal lambe nahi hain… maine kaat diye hain King ke liye’ (Now my hair isn’t long… I cut it for King).

While there’s still no official poster, anticipation for his next Sujoy Ghosh-directed film is through the roof.

As a final thank you, SRK struck his signature pose on stage, wearing a casual t-shirt and beanie, sharing a heartfelt message for his fans, ‘Thank you for making my evening special… sending my love to those who couldn’t make it.’

And SRK’s kindness didn’t stop there. Although he skipped his traditional balcony wave this year, he made sure everyone felt appreciated.

In a video that went viral, his team handed out food boxes to Mumbai Police officers stationed outside Mannat, managing the crowd.

Fans on social media praised him for the gesture, with one user writing, ‘Latest: King SRK’s team sends food containers to Mumbai Police. King for a reason.’

Meanwhile, SRK’s wife, interior designer Gauri Khan gave fans a glimpse into their intimate celebration with family and close friends. She took to Instagram, sharing a heartwarming photo from the celebration at Mannat. In the picture, SRK is seen cutting his birthday cake, with Gauri and their daughter Suhana standing by his side.

Captioning the post, Gauri wrote about the ‘memorable evening’ spent with loved ones, capturing a perfect family moment.
