Meanwhile, SRK, along with Salman Khan and Aamir Khan, attended the Joy Forum 2025, reflecting on their journey. Speaking at the event, SRK shared his admiration for Aamir and Salman: "I look up to Salman Khan and Aamir Khan. Look at me, I'm still looking up to Salman. I look up to them because of the kinds of ups and downs they've faced, and the work they've done, starting from scratch and working their way up to this. These people are aspirational and inspirational, and somewhere I feel really thankful that I have the opportunity to sit on the same stage."

Meanwhile, King Khan is all set to turn 60 on November 2. To mark the occasion, PVR Inox Limited has announced a dedicated film festival that will run for two weeks starting October 31.
