Vikrant Massey told ANI that as soon as Shah Rukh Khan and Rani Mukerji received their medals, they were filled with childlike joy.
He described it as “childlike joy,” which remained as innocent even after such a significant achievement.

The Innocence of Wearing the Medal
Shah Rukh himself wanted to wear the medal immediately after his performance.
Vikrant explains, “When SRK came back and said, ‘I am wearing this award,’ everyone burst out laughing.
Then he jokingly said, ‘Yes, I wear it, don’t I?’” This ease brought the stage to life.
Moments of Help from Rani
On stage, Rani Mukerji opened SRK’s medal and examined it before it got stuck.
She showed it to her selfie camera and said, “Look, how it looks.”
This small gesture brought their friendship even closer, as if two old friends were taking care of each other like they did in childhood.
