"King for a reason": Shah Rukh Khan holds Rani Mukerji's pallu as she walks; netizens react

It was a moment straight out of Kuch Kuch Hota Hai or Chalte Chalte as Shah Rukh Khan helped Rani Mukerji with her pallu at the IIFA. Shah Rukh Khan dominated IIFA 2024 and with the year it has been for him, rightly so! From co-anchoring, dancing, winning to giving everyone goosebumps with his win; SRK was written all over IIFA.

While Shah Rukh Khan won the Best Actor award for Jawan, Rani Mukerji lifted the trophy for the Best Actress.
