Prior to the fan meet, SRK cancelled his yearly Mannat appearance due to crowd control issues. Apologising to his fans, he wrote, “I have been advised by authorities that I will not be able to step out and greet all you lovely people who have been waiting for me. My deepest apologies to all of you, but I have been informed that it is for everyone’s safety due to crowd control concerns. Thank you for understanding, and believe me — I will miss seeing you more than you will. I was looking forward to sharing love with you all. Love you.”
To make his birthday even more special, the makers of King unveiled the film’s striking first look.

In the glimpse, Khan delivers a line that has already set the internet buzzing: “Darr nahi, dehshat hoon — KING.”
