Fans thronged the entrance of Kolkata airport on October 29 as Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan and the other cast members of recently release film Happy New Year arrived in the city for a special performance to celebrate the success of the film.
Directed by Farah Khan, Happy New Year, which released on October 24, has turned out to be a gold spinner by minting Rs108.86 crore in the opening weekend.
Shah Rukh is slated to entertain audiences at a show in St. Xavier's College in the evening. The actor, who is also the brand ambassador for West Bengal, is scheduled to call on Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee before the event.
Shah Rukh tweeted:
In Kolkata I always get so enthused about life when I meet MamataDi. Her energy and the fish I get to eat. Now to Xaviers in a bit.
