Shah Rukh Khan and Gautam Gambhir

Shah Rukh Khan is the man of the moment after delivering the blockbuster 'Jawan' film.

He has been showered with praise from people from all walks of life. On Thursday, he received a shoutout from former KKR skipper Gautam Gambhir.

Taking to Instagram, Gambhir shared a picture with SRK from his latest meeting with him. The image shows Gambhir and SRK twinning in black.

"He's not just the king of Bollywood but the king of hearts. Every time we meet I go back with endless love and respect . So much to learn from u . Simply the best SRK @iamsrk," Gambhir wrote.

SRK and Gambhir's association goes back a long way back. Gautam represented the Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise Kolkata Knight Riders from 2011-17, which is owned by the Bollywood superstar. Both of the franchise's IPL wins in 2012 and 2014 came under Gambhir's captaincy.

Gambhir delivered with the bat in both seasons, especially in 2012 when he scored 590 runs in 17 matches. The cricketer-turned-politician is also KKR's all-time highest run-scorer.
