Acting is a responsibility
Shahrukh called the award not just an achievement but a responsibility. He said that this honour will keep reminding him that his work matters. He talked about keeping himself creative and serving cinema. He called acting not just work but a responsibility to show the truth.
Promised to return to theatre
At the end of the video, Shahrukh told his fans that he will soon return to theatres. He expressed his desire to do his signature step but it was not possible due to the bandage tied on his hand. He asked the fans to keep popcorn ready and wrote that this honour is very close to his heart.
The bandage tied on the hand increased concern
In this video of Shahrukh, a bandage was seen on his hand, which made the fans a little worried. Recently there was news that he was injured during the shooting of the film ‘King’ but his team clarified that this injury was not on the set of ‘King’ but due to going to America for the treatment of his old injury.
