Tabu, Shah Rukh Khan and Vijay Sethupathi win big at IFFM 2019

Shah Rukh Khan was honoured with the Excellence in Cinema award and twenty years of his film Kuch Kuch Hota Hai was also celebrated at the festival. Being a sport, Shah Rukh shook a leg with young performers on the beats of Gully Boy. Later, he even did the hook step of his popular song “Chaiyya Chaiyya”. Not only this, he stepped out of the car to click selfies with fans who were excited to have him in Melbourne.
