SRK, who is Dubai’s ambassador since 2016, took to social media to share a picture of himself posing in front of the world’s tallest building, which flashed “Happy Birthday Shah Rukh Khan.” The superstar wrote that while he loved this gesture, his kids were “mighty impressed” too.
“It’s nice to see myself on the biggest and tallest screen in the world. My friend #MohamedAlabbar has me on the biggest screen even before my next film. Thanks & love u all @burjkhalifa & @emaardubai. Being my own guest in Dubai… my kids mighty impressed and me is loving it,” the Zero actor posted.
Shah Rukh Khan’s friend, filmmaker Karan Johar also took to Instagram to share a video of the moment. In the video, K Jo is heard telling SRK to face the camera even as the actor is busy “admiring himself” on Burj Khalifa.

Earlier in the day, Shah Rukh released a video to thank his fans and admirers for their birthday wishes and assured them that he would have a “bigger, better” party with them next year to make up for the absence of celebrations this time due to coronavirus pandemic.
