Often dubbed “fashion’s biggest night”, the Met Gala is the most prestigious and glamorous red carpet event in the world, hosted annually at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. Every year, celebrities across fashion, film, and music showcase their most avant-garde looks in celebration of the Costume Institute's annual exhibition — and this year, all eyes are on the King of Bollywood.

After decades of redefining stardom across continents, Shah Rukh Khan is finally stepping onto the Met Gala red carpet — and fans across the globe are counting down the hours. With just moments to go before his much-awaited appearance, the big question on everyone’s mind is: What is SRK up to?

While the superstar himself has been keeping a low profile since landing in the US a few days ago, his longtime manager Pooja Dadlani just gave fans a tiny peek behind the curtains.

Taking to her Instagram Stories, Pooja shared a short video capturing the weather in New York from what appears to be their hotel window. The skyline, usually bustling and bright, was completely obscured by thick fog. Along with the video, she wrote: “The D-Day! But where’s NY? #foggy.”


The cryptic update has only added to the intrigue, as fans speculate what SRK’s grand fashion moment might look like. Rumors are already swirling that he will be wearing an ensemble designed by Indian couturier Sabyasachi Mukherjee — a collaboration that could mark a defining moment for Indian couture on the global stage.


Shah Rukh joins a star-studded Indian contingent at this year’s Met Gala, which includes Priyanka Chopra, Kiara Advani, Diljit Dosanjh, Isha Ambani, and Natasha Poonawalla.
