Following the thrilling match, where the Royals equaled their previous record of highest run-chase, the team celebrated their victory at Eden Gardens. Amidst the jubilation, Jaiswal expressed his desire to meet Bollywood legend and KKR co-owner Shah Rukh Khan.
In a heartwarming post shared on social media, Rajasthan Royals captured the moment when Jaiswal met SRK. The post included a famous dialogue from SRK's movie Om Shanti Om, "Itni shiddat se maine tumhe paane ki koshish ki hai, shayad har zarre ne mujhe tumse milane ki saazish ki hai" (I have tried to attain you with such intensity, perhaps every particle has conspired to unite me with you)."
