For some fans, nothing equates with watching Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan on the big screen. For others, even a glimpse of him is enough to swoon over. 

The 56-year-old megastar, who is set to star in ‘Pathaan’ next year, took social media by storm after he was spotted on the sets of ‘Rocketry: The Nambi Effect’ with the film’s director R Madhavan, former ISRO scientist Nambi Narayanan, actor Ranbir Kapoor, and filmmakers Karan Johar and Ayan Mukerji.

In an image shared by a fan account on Instagram, Khan was seen sporting a classic black tuxedo with a white shirt underneath. Standing on his right was Mukerji in a casual T-shirt-pant ensemble. The image also featured Madhavan and Narayanan in similar outfits, Kapoor in a dark t-shirt and Johar in an all-black look.

The image is from the sets of ‘Rocketry: The Nambi Effect’, a film by Madhavan, who also acts in the biopic. The movie is based on the life of Nambi Narayanan and chronicles his early days at Princeton, his science career, and finally, his espionage allegations.

The film released in theatres on Friday in English, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada.

In the film, Khan appears in a cameo role as a television show host who interviews the character of Madhavan, who recently spoke about the ‘Zero’ star at a promotional event. 

“I mentioned about Rocketry to Shah Rukh Khan sahab (sir) when I worked with him in Zero …he vividly remembered it that during one of his birthday parties he asked me about the film’s status and expressed his desire to be a part of the film. ‘Mujhe background mein koi bhi role chalega main is film ka hissa hona chahta hu (I’m ready to play any role in the background I want to be a part of this film), Khan sahab told me. I thought he was joking,” Madhavan said, according to ANI.
