The buzz is real, and it’s bigger than ever! Bollywood’s beloved King Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, is officially heading to the Met Gala 2025. The news was confirmed on April 27 by the popular and notoriously sharp Instagram account Diet Sabya, sending fans into an absolute frenzy. As excitement builds for fashion’s biggest night on May 5 at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art, Shah Rukh’s debut promises to be one for the history books.
In a move that feels nothing short of iconic, SRK will be dressed by none other than India’s ace designer Sabyasachi Mukherjee. The pairing of these two legends is already being hailed as a milestone moment, not just for Indian representation but for global fashion itself.
Breaking the news with their signature style, Diet Sabya posted, “National headlines. Threads in meltdown. Entertainment sites foaming at the mouth. Twitter frenzy et al. Time to shut it down lol. We at DietSabya can confirm: yes, that is indeed SRK — India’s undisputed generational superstar — making his Met Gala debut in May 2025, wearing Sabyasachi (India’s biggest luxury brand). But wait, was there ever a doubt? Are we excited? Or…? Catch you on the carpet.”
The excitement had been building for weeks. Earlier in April, Diet Sabya dropped cryptic hints about this much-awaited news, posting, “STOP THE PRESSES!!! The impossible just happened! Two titans of their craft — the greatest Bollywood superstar and the biggest designer of our generation — are joining forces for their Met Gala 2025 debut. And let’s be real, this is HUGE. Monumental, baby! We’re talking HISTORY in the making! This Bollywood icon is about to become the first Indian man to strut his ‘dandy’ on the Met carpet. Let the guessing games begin!”
Now, with the official confirmation, fans across the globe are counting down the days to witness SRK making history as the first Indian male actor to walk the Met Gala red carpet.
