Shah Rukh Khan made history on 5 May 2025, becoming the first Indian male actor to walk the red carpet at the Met Gala, held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
He wore a black sherwani-style jacket with tailored trousers by Sabyasachi Mukherjee, blending modern style with Indian heritage.
SRK's layered necklaces featured diamond-studded ‘K’ pendants, a subtle nod to his title ‘King Khan.’
The real head-turner? A $2.5 million Patek Philippe Grand Complications 6300G watch — one of the most complex wristwatches ever made.
Despite the luxe accessories, SRK remained grounded and humble, impressing fans with both his charm and elegance.
Social media users quickly identified the watch, sparking viral conversations.
In a Vogue interview, SRK said he told Sabyasachi: I only wear black and white, focusing on comfort and self-expression.
Sabyasachi explained the outfit reflected freedom, resilience, and identity, aligning with the event’s Black Dandy theme.
Other Met Gala attendees included Priyanka Chopra, Diljit Dosanjh, Bad Bunny, and BLACKPINK members, marking strong global representation.
