Bollywood icons Shah Rukh Khan and Rani Mukerji enjoyed a heartfelt reunion at the 24th edition of the IIFA Awards. The duo, who first teamed up in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, both took home Best Actor trophies in their respective categories. In a delightful video shared on IIFA’s Instagram, the two stars are seen seated in the audience, applauding the performances on stage. Rani proudly holds her Best Actress award for her role in Mrs. Chatterjee vs Norway. She looked stunning in an elegant celadon saree, while SRK radiated charm and style in his sleek all-black suit.

Shah Rukh Khan also served as the host for the evening, alongside his Dunki co-star Vicky Kaushal.
