The event, which united international celebrities from film, sports, and digital entertainment, became the talk of the town after SRK posed for a heartwarming selfie with South Korean superstar Lee Jung-jae of Squid Game fame.
The Selfie That Broke The Internet
Lee Jung-jae shared the picture on Instagram, captioning it, “Honoured to be with a respected icon Mr. @iamsrk,” instantly sending fans across continents into a frenzy.
