Shah Rukh Khan, the owner of KR and a famous actor in Bollywood, gave departing team mentor Gautam Gambhir a heartfelt hug at Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s wedding in Mumbai, following the former opener’s appointment as India coach.

Gautam Gambhir resigned from Shah Rukh’s KKR team to join the national team after he was officially announced as Team India’s head coach on July 10. Starting from July 27 this will be his first official tour as the coach of the Indian team and that too in the limited-over series in Sri Lanka.

Before the India’s Sri Lanka tour, a viral video also shows Shah Rukh Khan and Gautam Gambhir hugging each other. Shah Rukh and Gambhir crossed paths in the wedding of Anant-Radhika Ambani which took place in Mumbai and exchanged pleasant words.

In the viral video, the warm feeling portrayed by the KKR owner hugging Gambhir, alongside Bollywood star Shah Rukh, is evident of their happiness in meeting one another. Furthermore, Gambhir was] seen chit chatting with the Bollywood star in a very friendly manner.

During the function of Anant-Radhika Ambani’s marriage held at the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre in Mumbai, even Shah Rukh was photographed hugging Gambhir’s wife, Natasha. It wins the heart when the two share a warm hug and that has gone viral as Gambhir is set to join the Indian cricket team later this month.
