SRK responds to 'Loki' star Tom Hiddleston's appreciation for him
Looks like there is nothing but love between Shah Rukh Khan and Tom Hiddleston. In a recent promotional video for the show, the Loki star played a game of word association. When prompted with "India and Bollywood," he took SRK's name. Understandably, SRK was floored by his response and called him kind while also mentioning that he cannot wait to binge-watch Loki.
'Hope there's no mischief behind this claim,' SRK hilariously responds
The Bollywood superstar used his typical wit to come up with a cheeky response to the praise. He retweeted the video and wrote, "You are kind, God of Mischief... hope there's no mischief behind this claim though. Lots of love Tom and can't wait to binge Loki!!! Starting now- Ep 1 (sic)" Hiddleston had mentioned him twice during the game.
