People clapped and spoke SRK's famous movie lines at me. I saw how much love people have for SRK, and for the 1st time, I felt like a 'Badshah'; it was special! But very quickly, I also realized what SRK probably goes through daily; I got swamped and someone held onto me so tight that my t-shirt tore! It got so bad that I had to call the police to be safely taken out of the stadium. And after rescuing me, the cops asked, 'SRK sir, ek selfie?"
