In a delightful display of camaraderie, Andre Russell, the dynamic West Indies batter, showcased his deep admiration for Bollywood icon Shah Rukh Khan during an IPL match. As a longstanding member of the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) since 2014, Russell’s social media tributes to the franchise’s co-owner, Shah Rukh Khan, have consistently captivated fans.
This connection was vividly reaffirmed during the ILT20 match between Abu Dhabi Knight Riders and Desert Vipers. Post-match, representing Abu Dhabi Knight Riders, Russell paid a heartwarming tribute to SRK by emulating his iconic pose—arms outstretched, muscles flexed—an action that resonated with the jubilant crowd.
The reciprocation of this gesture was immediate, as Shah Rukh Khan, present at the event, responded with applause and a flying kiss. Amidst the cheers from fans, SRK, along with the spectators, urged Russell to flaunt his muscles, adding an extra layer of joy to the celebration.

Andre Russell said: “Woww, So he’s playing more than one role in this movie. So, I think it’s gonna be another hit movie. Definitely like the action, the little funny sides of Shah Rukh. So you know, it’s just the trailer, just imagine watching the full movie. Hopefully it’s showing in Guyana and we can all go and watch it.”
The match itself concluded on a high note for the Knight Riders, securing victory against Desert Vipers by six wickets. Beyond the cricket field, the bond between Russell and Shah Rukh Khan extends to off-field interactions, as evidenced in a KKR video where Russell, visibly moved, and expressed his emotions while watching the trailer of SRK’s 2023 release, ‘Jawan’.
This unique fusion of sports and entertainment serves as a testament to the enduring friendship between the explosive cricketer and the Bollywood superstar, creating memorable moments both on and off the pitch.
