Every November 2, fans across the world unite to celebrate the birthday of the one and only Shah Rukh Khan—a man whose charisma, talent, and warmth have made him a global icon. Known as “King Khan,” SRK isn’t just a superstar; he’s a phenomenon that transcends cinema, uniting people across continents. This year, one fan has taken that love to new heights with an original song: The King Khan Anthem, a tribute that’s quickly catching fire online.
The anthem, created by Harry Ghai, was shared on YouTube and has already amassed 3,000 views, with over 500 reposts on Twitter (or “X” now). SRK’s loyal fanbase, often called “Jabra” fans, is sharing this anthem across platforms alongside their own edits, favorite movie clips, and cherished memories, making SRK’s birthday a truly global event.
This outpouring of love for Shah Rukh Khan is nothing new. Every year, fans honor him with tributes, flash mobs, grand social media campaigns, and creative gestures that reflect the deep connection they feel for him. And this year, Harry Ghai’s anthem is becoming the centerpiece of the celebration. With his signature style of heartfelt lyrics and evocative music, Harry has captured the timeless magic that SRK brings to his audience.
In an exclusive conversation with YoTainment, Harry Ghai shared the inspiration, process, and love behind the anthem:
Q: Is creating an anthem for SRK’s birthday something you do every year, or is this your first time?
“Actually, I crafted an anthem last year as well! It’s something I hope to make a yearly tradition. Creating these anthems is my way of honoring Shah Rukh Khan’s impact—not just on cinema but on my life. It’s an expression of my admiration and my gratitude, which grows every year.”
Q: How did you come up with the idea for The King Khan Anthem?
“I wanted to bring together two of my deepest passions: music and Shah Rukh Khan. The idea felt so organic because my love for SRK is boundless. This anthem lets me share that love with the world in the best way I know how—through music.”
Q: How long did it take you to complete the anthem?
“Surprisingly, this one came together very quickly. It took only a few hours to write the lyrics because my feelings for SRK practically poured out onto the page. Recording it was even more amazing—I nailed it in just one take, which usually doesn’t happen. It felt like magic, like it was meant to be.”
Ghai’s anthem has resonated with SRK’s fans because it captures the essence of who Shah Rukh Khan truly is: a superstar whose talent is matched only by his humility and kindness. Known for his ability to connect through emotionally rich lyrics, Ghai channels this into The King Khan Anthem, making it a song that not only celebrates SRK but invites fans to feel closer to him.
