Paulo Coelho calls Shah Rukh Khan a legend

Author Paulo Coelho gave a special shoutout to Shah Rukh Khan after the tremendous success of his latest film Pathaan. The Brazilian novelist responded to a video shared by the actor thanking his fans gathered outside his house in Mumbai.

Taking to Twitter, Paulo responded to a video shared by Shah Rukh where his fans gathered outside his house in Mumbai. He wrote, "King. Legend . Friend. But above all GREAT ACTOR ( for those who don’t know him in the West, I strongly suggest “My name is Khan- and I am not a terrorist”)."

One fan replied, "Wooww… and what a way to introduce to those who don’t know him." While another added, "Paulo thank you man you always stand by our king srk lots and lots of love (red heart emojis)."

This is not the first time that the author has praised Shah Rukh and his performance in My Name Is Khan. In 2017, Paulo had gone on Twitter to congratulate Shah Rukh on the seventh anniversary of the film. He had also shared a screenshot of his Facebook post .
