Shah Rukh Khan’s words found him at a time when he needed them the most, which is why meeting the superstar in person at Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s wedding felt like a “perfect end” to a wonderful trip to India, says former WWE champion and American actor John Cena.
The Bollywood superstar and India as a country hold a special place in Cena’s heart. He described his July visit as an “unforgettable and overwhelming” experience.
Cena was one of the international guests invited for the high-profile wedding of Anant, youngest son of Asia’s richest man Mukesh Ambani, with childhood sweetheart Radhika, daughter of pharma tycoons Viren and Shaila Merchant.
“Right at the end of my stay, I was able to meet Shah Rukh Khan on the way out. He’s someone whose words — I was able to tell him this in person — found me at a time when I needed them (the most) in my life,” he told PTI describing the moment that he had also shared with his X followers.
Cena, 47, said it was important to shake Shah Rukh’s hand and share with him the positive impact the Indian actor has had on his life.
