Coldplay is gearing up to perform in India in 2025, and excitement is building among fans. Tickets for their concerts sold out almost immediately, reflecting the band's immense popularity in the country. As this buzz grows, it’s a great time to look back at a memorable moment between Coldplay's lead singer Chris Martin and Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan (SRK).
Chris Martin has openly expressed his admiration for Shah Rukh Khan, even saying, “Shah Rukh Khan forever.” This statement showcases his love for the iconic actor, who has a massive fan base not just in India but around the world. In a lighthearted response, SRK promised to send Chris some Indian music, creating a charming connection between the two stars.
