SRK | David Beckham 'Get some sleep': SRK advises 'absolute gentleman' David Beckham
Superstar Shah Rukh Khan Friday met former England football team skipper David Beckham who has been having a busy week during his first visit to India.
Beckham, who was in the country as a goodwill ambassador for UNICEF, attended the Cricket World Cup semi-final between India and New Zealand at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.
From cricketers to actors, Beckham obliged for a picture with everyone and SRK was no exception.
Taking to social media platform X, Shah Rukh Khan reserved huge praise for Beckham, labelling the latter as "kind and an absolute gentleman".
However, the 58-year-old also had an interesting piece of advice for the 48-year-old former footballer.
"Last nite with an icon...and an absolute gentleman. Have always been a big admirer but meeting him and seeing how he is with kids made me realise that the only thing that out does his football is his kindness and his gentle nature. My love to your family. Be well and happy my friend and get some sleep.... #DavidBeckham," SRK captioned the post.
