The actor’s message reflected Narine’s long-standing association with KKR, where he has been a key figure across multiple title-winning campaigns. Over 15 seasons, the mystery spinner has remained central to the team’s bowling attack, contributing to their three IPL trophies and building a reputation as one of the league’s most consistent performers.
What's next for Shah Rukh Khan?
Meanwhile, on the work front, Shah Rukh Khan is gearing up for his next film, King, directed by Siddharth Anand. The project has already generated buzz following the leak of behind-the-scenes visuals featuring pregnant Deepika Padukone from the sets.
The film also features Suhana Khan, alongside Abhishek Bachchan and Rani Mukerji. Backed by Red Chillies Entertainment and Marflix Pictures, King is expected to release around Christmas, with Shah Rukh playing a veteran assassin in a gritty underworld narrative, while Suhana essays his protege.
