Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan was spotted at the Mumbai airport in the early hours of Thursday as he headed to Abu Dhabi for the International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) Awards. Several videos and pictures of the actor arriving at the airport surfaced on social media, showing fans’ excitement to catch a glimpse of the actor.
In one of the clips, Shah Rukh is seen stepping out of his car, escorted by his bodyguards and security personnel. Despite his team forming a protective circle around him, eager fans could be seen running and screaming his name. One girl rushed toward him, pushing through the crowd, causing Shah Rukh to momentarily lose his balance as he hopped to one side. However, the actor kept his composure, calmly waving to his fans before entering the airport.
For his travel look, Shah Rukh sported a casual yet stylish black sweatshirt paired with matching pants and shoes. He completed his look with a cap and dark sunglasses, maintaining his signature star style.
The incident triggered reactions from fans and social media users, with many expressing concern about the crowd’s behavior. A fan commented, “The real star of the Indian film industry.” Another tweet read, “The way some fans are screaming, it sounds scary.” One user added, “The girl pushed his team and tried to reach him, SRK, such a big actor. The security should be stronger.” Others praised Shah Rukh’s calmness, saying, “SRK is SRK. How he kept his calm. But this isn’t done. The girl nearly jumped on him.”
