MUMBAI: Indian global icon Shah Rukh Khan made a striking appearance at the Met Gala 2025, turning heads as always with his effortless charisma. However, what truly set social media ablaze wasn’t just his presence it was the question he was asked on the red carpet: “Who are you?”
The query left fans and onlookers stunned, with many expressing disbelief that anyone could fail to recognise one of the world’s most celebrated film stars.
Outrage quickly rippled across platforms, with admirers questioning how such an icon could be seemingly unknown at one of fashion’s most prestigious events.
But as it turns out, the situation wasn’t quite as it seemed.
The question — “Who are you?” — was, in fact, the official theme of this year’s Met Gala. In keeping with the evening’s introspective and identity-focused motif, all celebrities, regardless of status, were asked the same question as part of the artistic expression of the event.
The aim was to explore deeper notions of self, persona, and public image through fashion and dialogue.
While many jumped to Shah Rukh Khan’s defence, believing the question to be an oversight or slight, the reality reflects the Gala’s creative spirit rather than any lack of recognition.
As fans would agree, Shah Rukh Khan needs no introduction his body of work, international acclaim, and global fanbase speak volumes.
In the end, the moment became a testament not only to Khan’s enduring star power but also to the event’s ability to provoke conversation and reflection both on and off the red carpet.
