SRK's heart beats for hockey
In 2007, he stole many hearts as the wronged, ruggedly handsome hockey coach in Chak De! India, and in the bid, strengthened interest in India's national sport. So, it doesn't come as a surprise that Shah Rukh Khan pledged his heartbeat to the sport, as part of the Beats for Hockey campaign in the lead up to the Odisha Hockey Men's World Cup Bhubaneswar 2018.

He will also be part of the opening ceremony on November 27. The news came to light through a Twitter banter between captain Manpreet Singh and the actor. The film, however, isn't SRK's only connection with hockey. An ardent fan of the game, he used to play hockey in his school days. He had also once expressed his desire to see his son AbRam to grow up to be a hockey player.
