As Ranveer Singh witnesses the mega successes of Dhurandhar and Dhurandhar 2, the Indian film industry is rallying behind the actor and showering him with praise. However, many social media users have
questioned why Bollywood stalwarts are still silent. Amid this chatter, an old, heartwarming video of Shah Rukh Khan comforting Ranveer Singh has gone viral.
The video is from an old awards show and features a crying Ranveer Singh giving an acceptance speech for Band Baaja Baaraat. As he is about to leave the stage, Shah Rukh Khan calls him close and says, “Tu kyu roh raha hai, rona toh hume chahiye. Humara kya hoga, tu aagaya industry mein.”

In addition to Shah Rukh Khan, Karan Johar and Shahid Kapoor are also seen on stage. The camera also cuts to Salman Khan, who is seen laughing in the audience. Shah Rukh Khan then says, “Gale lag, humko thoda pyaar de. Hum tujhe bataye ki tu kitna accha aur kitna khoobsurat actor hai.”
Shah Rukh Khan hugs a crying Ranveer Singh to comfort him. Even Shahid Kapoor holds him to extend some comfort. Shah Rukh Khan then introduces Ranveer Singh as “one of the most beautiful actors of our time”. Band Baaja Baaraat marked Ranveer Singh’s Bollywood debut alongside Anushka Sharma.
The video has touched fans’ hearts. One person wrote, “SRK wasn’t just comforting him; he was literally reading the future. It’s rare to see a ‘passing of the torch’ moment actually age like fine wine.” Another added, “I love SRK, Salman, and Akshay for always supporting Ranveer, and please accept the fact that it’s they who made our childhood memorable.” A fan wrote, “Man with a golden heart ❤️ @iamsrk.”
Another comment read, “I love this gesture by @iamsrk ❤❤ … @RanveerOfficial You kept your word… You are exceptional. Please continue doing great work.” Someone else wrote, “SRK has always been appreciative of talents and never held back praising them publicly. It’s not a trivial thing, that goes a long way.” A comment read, “King is not afraid of anyone in the jungle.”
Meanwhile, Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar 2 continues its historic run at the box office, refusing to slow down even on weekdays. The Aditya Dhar directorial has crossed a staggering ₹575 crore net in India within just six days, setting new benchmarks for Hindi cinema. With this phenomenal run, Dhurandhar 2 has already rewritten the record books.
