Hina Khan recalls meeting Shah Rukh Khan on flight, says she waited for him to wake up for a photo: He got up, called me, and clicked a picture

Hina Khan recently opened up about her first meeting with Shah Rukh Khan and recalled how nervous she was when she found herself seated next to the superstar on a flight. The actor shared the experience during a conversation with Rocky Jaiswal, Rubina Dilaik and Abhinav Shukla on their podcast POV. She also revealed that despite being exhausted, Shah Rukh made sure to keep his promise of clicking a picture with her. Hina said she was still relatively new to the entertainment industry when the meeting took place. At the time, her popular television show Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai had been on air for around a year and a half. Recalling the moment, she said, The first time I met SRK, we were on the same flight. It had been a year and a half since my show Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai had started. I was very new in the industry. I saw him sitting next to me. I took a deep breath and saw again that he was sleeping. I couldnt believe it. I was anxious to get a photo, but he wasnt waking up. Somehow, he woke up for coffee. Hina eventually gathered the courage to approach him and ask for a picture. Shah Rukh assured her that he would take one with her, but after having his coffee, he went back to sleep. Hina continued waiting, unsure whether she would get the opportunity. She recalled, I waved a hi to him and asked if I could get a picture. He said, Wait, Ill give you a photo. He had his coffee and went back to sleep. I kept waiting. Once we landed, I thought I missed the chance, but he got up, called me, and clicked a picture. We were also in the same coach later. He went to the last seat and slept. He was promoting some film at the time and hadnt slept for days. Abhinav Shukla also recently shared his first interaction with Shah Rukh. Recalling an event during his modelling days, he said, My first meeting with SRK was when I was fresh off the boat from Punjab and modelling in Mumbai. We were doing a ramp show for a watch brand, and we were backstage. We saw SRK enter; it was the first time I saw him. I decided to go and shake his hand. He was talking to his manager, then he looked at me, got up, and shook my hand. That defines the character of that man. Meanwhile, Shah Rukh Khan is gearing up for his next film King, directed by Siddharth Anand. The action thriller will also feature his daughter Suhana Khan, marking their first on-screen collaboration. The film is scheduled to release in theatres in 2026.

We Have To Be At Our Best From First Match: Ludhiana Lions Arshdeep Singh Ahead Of Sher-e-Punjab T20 League

Punjab T20 League: The excitement is building up as the Sher-e-Punjab T20 League 2026 is all set to begin on August 30 at the I.S. Bindra Stadium in Chandigarh. Six teams will battle it out for the coveted title, with some of Punjabs finest cricketing talent set to take centre stage. Among the teams in the competition are the Ludhiana Lions, who have made a major statement by picking Indias left-arm pace sensation Arshdeep Singh as their marquee player. The fast bowler is delighted to be part of the tournament and is looking forward to representing the Lions in what promises to be an exciting season. Speaking about the tournament and his preparations, Arshdeep said, It feels great to be part of the Sher-e-Punjab T20 League. There is a lot of excitement around the tournament, and I am really looking forward to being part of the Ludhiana Lions and this journey. The preparations have been very good so far. We have spent a lot of time working on our skills, understanding our roles and preparing for different match situations. Now, the main focus is to take that confidence from the training ground into the matches, he said. Arshdeep also highlighted the positive atmosphere within the Ludhiana Lions camp, with players pushing each other during the preparation sessions. Everyone has been very serious during the practice sessions. There is healthy competition within the squad, and that is always a good sign for any team. We have also worked on different match situations because T20 cricket can change very quickly. One over, one partnership or one wicket can change the entire game, so the aim is to be ready for every situation and make the right decisions under pressure, he added. With several quality players expected to feature in the tournament, Arshdeep believes the competition will be intense from the very beginning. However, he feels the key will be to stay focused on each game rather than looking too far ahead. The competition is going to be tough because every team has quality players. There are no easy games in T20 cricket, so we will have to be at our best from the first match. We don't want to look too far ahead. The focus will be on taking one game at a time, executing our plans and continuing to improve as the tournament progresses. If we can stay consistent and play according to our plans, hopefully we can have a good campaign, Arshdeep said. The India pacer also spoke about the importance of the Sher-e-Punjab T20 League in providing a platform for young cricketers from the state. With youngsters getting an opportunity to share the dressing room with experienced players, Arshdeep believes the tournament can play an important role in shaping the next generation of Punjab cricketers. For a youngster, playing alongside experienced players can be a huge advantage. There is so much they can learn just by watching how senior players train, how they prepare before a match, and how they handle pressure when the situation is not going their way. These small things can make a big difference in a young player's development, he said. Arshdeep feels the success of the league should not only be measured by the team that lifts the trophy, but also by the number of young players who use the platform to make a name for themselves. For a youngster, playing alongside experienced players can be a huge advantage. There is so much they can learn just by watching how senior players train, how they prepare before a match, and how they handle pressure when the situation is not going their way. These small things can make a big difference in a young player's development, he said.
