Shah Rukh Khan, co-owner of Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), exuberantly celebrated his team's triumphant victory in the IPL 2024 final at the MA Chidambaram Stadium. As KKR clinched their third IPL title, Shah Rukh Khan couldn't contain his joy, embracing each member of the team and sharing heartfelt moments with mentor Gautam Gambhir.

The celebrations kicked off at the same ground, Chepauk, where KKR lifted their maiden title in 2012 under Gambhir's leadership. Shah Rukh Khan rushed onto the field to congratulate the players, showering them with hugs and even planting a kiss on Gambhir's forehead.

Reflecting on the victory, hard-hitting batter Rinku Singh expressed his elation, emphasizing the significance of winning the title with the team that had nurtured him for seven years. Despite his own modest performances, Singh's dedication and contributions throughout his tenure with KKR made him feel deserving of the victory.

In a remarkable encore, KKR secured their third IPL trophy by dominating the final match against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Restricting SRH to a modest total of 113 runs, KKR effortlessly chased down the target in just 10.3 overs with eight wickets in hand.

Shah Rukh Khan's elation was palpable as he celebrated the victory with his daughter Suhana and sons, AbRam and Aryan, in the stands. Waste no time, Shah Rukh Khan joined the team in their jubilant celebrations after the memorable victory.

A heartwarming moment ensued when Shah Rukh Khan kissed mentor Gautam Gambhir on the forehead, acknowledging the pivotal role Gambhir played as the team's mentor in his first season. Notably, under the leadership of Shreyas Iyer, KKR ended their decade-long wait for the coveted title, with Gambhir's influence evident throughout the season.

As the celebrations continued, Shah Rukh Khan shared warm embraces with players like Mitchell Starc, acknowledging their remarkable performances throughout the season. Taking a victory lap around the stadium, Shah Rukh Khan charmed fans with his trademark pose and flying kisses, solidifying his presence in KKR's historic win.
