Though Shah Rukh Khan has not commented on the farmers' stir, an old video of his is going viral, in which he called the farmers the "real heroes." The clip is from the Satyamev Jayate Water Cup 2017 in Pune.

The event was organised by Aamir Khan, and SRK was a special guest who spoke about the farmers' struggles and encouraged them.

Speaking of the farmers' protest, thousands of farmers, mainly from Punjab and Haryana, have been protesting since November 26, seeking withdrawal of three contentious farm laws enacted in September last year. A number of international personalities like Rihanna, Greta Thunberg, Susan Sarandon, Mia Khalifa highlighted the issue on social media.

Following this, several Indian celebrities reacted to a statement by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) about the issue, with hashtags like #IndiaTogether and #IndiaAgainstPropaganda. Akshay Kumar, Ajay Devgn, Suniel Shetty, Kangana Ranaut and Ekta Kapoor, among other celebs, urged people to not "fall for any propaganda."

On the work front, SRK will be next seen in Pathan. Shah Rukh Khan, who was seen the last time in 2018 in Zero with Anushka Sharma and Katrina Kaif, will share the screen space with Deepika Padukone and John Abraham. Apart from Pathan, he has a film by Atlee Kumar, and Rajkumar Hirani's next. It is also said that the actor has a special role in Tiger 3 and Laal Singh Chaddha.
