(MENAFN- AsiaNet News) Shah Rukh Khan gave fans the ideal Valentine's Day gift: being funny while discussing all things films. On Wednesday, the actor visited the World government Summit 2024 as a guest and sat down to discuss his work. Although he discussed rejecting Danny Boyle's Slumdog Millionaire and his four-year sabbatical from employment following Zero's failure, it is a video of him presenting himself as 'James Bond' that has gone viral.
The ceremony started with the host presenting Shah Rukh Khan as a legend. However, a humble Shah Rukh requested him not to refer to him as a legend.
