Bollywood icon Shah Rukh Khan marked his 60th birthday on November 2 with a playful nudge at Kolkata Knight Riders star Rinku Singh, cheekily asking the Indian cricketer “Shaadi Kab Hai?” in response to a heartfelt birthday wish. The exchange lit up social media as fans flooded timelines with laughter and memes, turning the superstar’s signature wit into the day’s top trending moment.
Rinku had posted a simple yet emotional tribute on X: “The best ever! Happy birthday, @iamsrk sir.” Khan, who co-owns the IPL franchise that launched Rinku into the national spotlight, replied within minutes with his now-viral question about the 27-year-old’s wedding plans. The left-handed batter, currently in Mumbai preparing for India’s T20I series against England, has neither confirmed nor denied any relationship, leaving fans to speculate whether SRK was dropping a hint or simply pulling his KKR “little brother’s” leg.
The interaction underscores the unique bond between Khan and the Kolkata Knight Riders family. Since acquiring Rinku for just ₹55 lakh in 2018, SRK has mentored the Aligarh-born finisher, who went on to smash five consecutive sixes in the IPL 2023 and earn his maiden India call-up. KKR coach Gautam Gambhir and Lucknow Super Giants owner Sanjeev Goenka also joined the birthday wishes, with Gambhir posting a throwback photo from the 2024 IPL triumph and Goenka calling Khan “the heartbeat of Indian entertainment.”

As clips of Khan greeting fans outside Mannat on November 2 crossed 200 million views, the “Shaadi Kab Hai?” moment became the perfect reminder of why the superstar remains India’s ultimate crowd-puller—sixty years young, still setting the internet on fire with three perfectly timed Hindi words. Rinku, last seen blushing in the comments section with folded-hand emojis, has promised his fans “jaldi hi bataunga” (will tell soon), keeping the nation happily hooked to both his cover drives and his love life.
