Anand Mahindra wants Shah Rukh Khan to be declared a natural resource

Shah Rukh Khan has captivated the audience with his performance in the movie ‘Jawan,’ and it appears that industrialist Anand Mahindra has also joined the ranks of the superstar’s admirers. Anand Mahindra expressed his admiration for Shah Rukh Khan by referring to him as a national treasure and shared a video of the actor on X (formerly known as Twitter). For those unfamiliar, ‘Jawan’ is Shah Rukh Khan’s second film release of the year, featuring Nayanthara and Vijay Sethupathi in prominent roles.

In a tribute to Shah Rukh Khan, Anand Mahindra took to X and stated, “Countries typically safeguard their natural mineral resources, extract them, and often export them to generate foreign exchange. Perhaps it’s time to declare @iamsrk a Natural Resource…”

In response, Shah Rukh Khan expressed his gratitude, saying, “Thank you so much. I endeavor in my small, humble way to bring pride to our country through cinema. I hope that as a ‘natural resource,’ I am not confined by limitations! Warm regards, sir.”

Previously, Anand Mahindra had shared a video of Shah Rukh Khan from the song ‘Zinda Banda’ on X and commented, “This hero is 57 years old. His aging process seems to defy the laws of gravity! He is ten times as vibrant as most individuals. #ZindaBanda ho to aisa” (translated: If one is alive, it should be like this).

To this, Shah Rukh Khan replied, “Life is fleeting and swift, sir. I am simply trying to keep pace with it. I aim to entertain in every way I can—whether it involves laughter, tears, dancing, or soaring. Hopefully, I can make some individuals feel like they are swimming among the stars and dream of moments of happiness.”
