Speaking about his look and thoughts on Met Gala, SRK said, “My designer, Sabyasachi, he thought of it, and thought of it as an expression of freedom and trying to be resolute and resilient against things that can oppress you."
When the reporter asked, “Have you ever heard of this or have you had ideas before and never tested it?" The megastar admitted, “Honestly, no, but I got to know now. So the last 20 days, I got to understand what it was. And being an actor, I thought it was very interesting how the resolve to change things without oppression or anger, but have exuberance of art in it. So, yeah, that was marvellous."
For the event, Shah Rukh Khan donned a sharp black suit adorned with statement jewellery by Sabyasachi.
