What is the story about?
As the spotlight shines down, a familiar silhouette extends his arms, and time itself seems to bend in awe. This is none other than the 'Baadshah of Bollywood'— Shah Rukh Khan.
For over 33 glorious years, the 'King Khan' has reigned supreme. This year, PVR INOX, India’s biggest cinema chain, is all set to celebrate Khan’s 60th birthday with a special two-week film festival.
This nationwide film festival, which begins on October 31 and will take place in more than 75 theatres across 30 cities, will give viewers a rare chance to relive the greatest moments of the actor’s cinematic career on a large screen.
The festival features a carefully curated selection of his timeless films that have defined generations, shaped pop culture, and continue to pull audiences back to the big screen due to their unparalleled rewatch value.
The film exhibition company also shared a post announcing the date and the lineup.

The film festival will feature a mix of Khan’s films from different genres, like the romantic epic
Devdas, the action-comedy Chennai Express, the political drama Dil Se
and the recently released powerful action spectacle Jawan. The remaining selections also include Kabhi Haan Kabhi Na, Main Hoon Na, and Om Shanti Om.
In a statement, the national award-winning actor expressed his gratitude to PVR INOX for celebrating his 33-year cinematic journey and to his production house, Red Chillies Entertainment, for its creative collaboration. He noted that the films belong to the audience and hopes the festival brings back the joy and magic of cinema.
"Cinema has always been my home, and seeing these films find their way back to the big screen feels like a beautiful reunion. These movies are not just my stories; they belong to the audience that has lovingly embraced them over the last 33 years. I am grateful to PVR INOX for celebrating this journey with such love, and to Red Chillies Entertainment, my creative home, for always believing in stories that connect us all. I hope everyone who comes to watch relives the joy, the music, the emotions, and the magic of cinema that we’ve shared," said Khan.
Calling Khan 'an emotion', Niharika Bijli, lead strategist at PVR Inox, said that the festival is “a tribute to his artistry – and to the joy and hope he continues to bring to audiences around the world.”
The upcoming Film Festival is part of PVR INOX’s ongoing initiative to honour landmark films and exceptional talent from the country and around the world. Booking details and theatre listings will be available soon on the official PVR INOX app and website.
