Shah Rukh made history at the MET Gala 2025 as the first male actor from the Hindi film industry to walk the prestigious red carpet. Dressed in a striking creation by renowned Indian designer Sabyasachi, the actor brought a blend of elegance, humility, and charm to fashion's biggest night.

He opted for a custom-designed all-black tailored suit. However, what truly stole the spotlight was his striking layered jewellery featuring a dazzling set of gold chains anchored by an oversized 'K' pendant, honouring his icoic title 'King Khan'.

Shah Rukh joined fellow Indian celebrities Priyanka Chopra, Kiara Advani, and Diljit Dosanjh at this year's event, which celebrated the theme Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.
