SRK speaks Bengali at KIFF and Mamata Didi laughs her heart out
At the inaugural ceremony of the 22nd Kolkata International Film Festival 2016 on Friday, Shah Rukh Khan did a cute gesture by trying to deliver his speech in Bengali. The star, who is also West Bengal’s brand ambassador expressed his fears of speaking in the language, while assuring the audience that he would surely come better prepared next year.
However, when he started his Bengali speech, the Kolkata audience roared, cheering for their favourite star. Chief Minister of West Bengal, Mamata Banerjee, who was also present at the event was seen laughing her heart out at the actor’s amateurish Bengali pronunciation. Bollywood A-listers like Amitabh Bachchan, Jaya Bachchan, Kajol, Sanjay Dutt and Parineeti Chopra, who were present on stage also seemed to enjoy King Khan’s speech.
