At the 71st National Film Awards ceremony held in New Delhi on September 23, 2025, Shah Rukh Khan made a striking appearance, showcasing a salt-and-pepper hairstyle that evoked memories of his iconic role in Veer-Zaara. Dressed in a classic black suit with a white shirt, Khan exuded timeless charm as he engaged in conversations with fellow awardees, including Rani Mukerji. His nameplate read “Shri Shah Rukh Khan,” a tribute that moved fans and sparked nostalgic reflections on his illustrious career.
This event marked a significant milestone in Khan’s career, as he received his first-ever National Film Award for Best Actor for his compelling performance in Jawan. Sharing the honor with Vikrant Massey, who was recognized for his role in 12th Fail, Khan expressed his gratitude, stating, “To be honoured with a National Award is a moment I will cherish for a lifetime.”
The ceremony, which was streamed live, also celebrated Rani Mukerji’s first National Award win for Best Actress for her portrayal in Mrs. Chatterjee vs Norway. The event was a testament to the enduring legacy of these cinematic icons and their contributions to Indian cinema.
