Actor Varun Dhawan says he learnt a lot from the film My Name Is Khan, which has clocked nine years since its release.

The Badlapur star tweeted a photograph from the sets of My Name Is Khan and wrote: "Nine years of 'My Name Is Khan', a film I learnt so much on. It practically changed my life."

Karan shared a still from the Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol-starrer and captioned: "Nine years of 'My Name Is Khan'... I feel so blessed to have been able to tell this story... thank you for creating it Shibani... and thank you SRK for living the role of Rizwan so beautifully and brilliantly."

He added: "Thank you Kajol for your eyes... your silences and more."

The film revolves around a character named Rizvan Khan, who embarks on a journey to meet the US president and attempts to change people's perception about his religion.
