Indian actor Shah Rukh Khan waved and blew kisses to fans off the pitch as his team, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), battled it out with Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) at Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Wednesday.
Nearly halfway through KKR’s innings, Khan — clad in a white T-shirt and sporting a beard — was first seen on the giant screen having a balloon fight with son AbRam. This caused some cheering. When he realised the cheers were meant for him, the Dilwale star stood up and waved at his fans.
The actor then sat AbRam on his lap and playfully hit him on the head with the KKR balloon.
Earlier in the day, Khan had tweeted about his arrival for his first ‘home match’ this season.
“Practising our dance moves lil AbRam and me as we prep for our first match in Kolkata. Ami Kolkata here we come ... see you all at the Garden,” SRK posted on Twitter.
