Indian fans of Bangtan Sonyeondan (BTS) were pleasantly surprised when Shah Rukh Khan expressed his affection for the group by saying ‘Love You, BTS’ in a special video released on YouTube.

In the promotional video, Shah Rukh Khan is depicted visiting a visa office seeking permission to visit 190 countries, from Australia to Zimbabwe, but is repeatedly denied. Despite this, he remains undeterred, citing his global influence.

He humorously mentions his impact, such as how many people in Britain are named Raj after his character in “Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge” and how Europe asked the UK to turn back during Brexit.

Shah Rukh Khan playfully claims credit for teaching Koreans how to express love, punctuating his statement with a cute heart-finger sign. Despite his visa being rejected, the Indian BTS fans, known as the Desi army, were still delighted after watching the ad.

An announcement was posted on the official Instagram handle of Dunki. The caption on the poster stated, “Get ready to pack your bags! After a journey around the world, @iamsrk is coming home. Dunki, now streaming on Netflix!”.

Hirani’s “Dunki” boasts a stellar cast including Shahrukh Khan, Tapasee Pannu, Vicky Kaushal, Boman Irani, Vikram Kocchar, and others. The film hit theaters on December 21, 2023, and has grossed over Rs 262.25 crore in India, along with an additional Rs 196.68 crore overseas.
