2 May 2025 : Yesterday on May 1, actors Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone came together onstage for the WAVES Summit 2025. Fans were delighted to see one of the most adored onscreen pairs together again after so long. As a cherry on top, filmmaker Karan Johar joined the iconic duo for a fun chat. Viral videos and photographs from the summit only left us more intrigued to witness Shah Rukh and Deepika’s upcoming reunion in Siddharth Anand’s much-anticipated King. Well, as we wait to watch SRK romance Deepika, in a viral clip from yesterday’s event the Baadshah of Bollywood was caught flirting with someone else.
A ‘batli’. Yes, you read that right! In a video from the event which has now taken over the internet, Shah Rukh Khan can be seen romancing a bottle of water right in front of Deepika Padukone. As SRK works his charm, quite successfully, Deepika is left in splits. Right then, she gets hilariously scolded by Shah Rukh, who says, “Don’t interrupt while I’m trying to romance… a batli.” SRK goes on to recite his poetic dialogue from Jab Tak Hai Jaan (2012) before taking a sip from the bottle, probably making it go weak in the knees. Karan Johar jumped in and joked, “The bottle just had a baby.”
Summary: At WAVES 2025, Shah Rukh Khan humorously romanced a bottle, amusing Deepika Padukone and Karan Johar, who joked, “The bottle just had a baby.”
