Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan's film Jawan has had a bumber opening at the box office. The Atlee film in the first two days of its release has amassed Rs 129.6 crore worldwide. The blockbuster opening of the film prompted several reactions not only from fans but also people like Anand Mahindra.
The business tycoon in a tweet on Friday declared Shah Rukh Khan as India's 'natural resource'.
"All countries guard their natural mineral resources and mine them and usually export them to earn forex. Maybe it’s time to declare @iamsrk a Natural Resource," wrote Mahindra. He also shared a video of the stunning illumination of the iconic Burj Khalifa in Dubai with the 'Jawan' trailer.
Shah Rukh Khan on Saturday replied to Mahindra's tweet with a little humour. The superstar wrote, "Thank you so much. I keep trying in my small humble way to make our country proud in terms of making cinema. And hope as a ‘natural resource’ I am not limited!!! Big hug sir".
