Shah Rukh Khan calls Virat Kohli Bollywood's son-in-law

 Speaking with Star Sports India, Khan said, "I spent a lot of time with him, I just love him. We say that he is our son-in-law, he is our fraternity's 'Damaad'. I have known him the most compared to other players. I have known Virat and Anushka for a long time and spent a lot of time with them. I have known him since his dating period was going on, and I was shooting the film with Anushka. So, he spent many days with us and became very friendly."

Last season, audiences had a glimpse of Kohli and SRK's friendship as they danced to Pathaan's title track.

Speaking about it, SRK said, "So, I taught him (Virat Kohli) the Pathan dance steps. I saw him during one of India's matches. He attempted to dance with Ravindra Jadeja throughout the match. They were trying to perform that dance step. I was quite disappointed with how poorly they were performing. I told them to let me teach them the steps."
