Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan’s global appeal was highlighted as the Academy posted a clip of his speech from ‘Om Shanti Om’ on Instagram. The film, a blend of romance, reincarnation, and humor, features Shah Rukh Khan in a dual role alongside Deepika Padukone in her debut. Released in 2007, the movie is a vibrant tribute to Bollywood with iconic songs and clever satire on the film industry.
‘Om Shanti Om’ became a commercial hit known for its grand sets and storytelling. Beneath the glitz, it cleverly satirizes celebrity culture. Shah Rukh Khan, recently honored with the National Film Award for Best Actor, is gearing up for his next project ‘King,’ directed by Siddharth Anand, who previously worked with him on ‘Pathaan.’
