Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan issues first statement after winning the best actor award at the International Indian Film Academy Awards.

Referring to his return to Bollywood after a hiatus of four years, King Khan expressed gratitude towards his fans as he stepped up to collect the award.

He turned towards the crowd and said, “I think I have a little happiness from the audience this year because I worked (again) after a long time.”

The Pathaan actor, who is known for his spectacular performance worldwide, announced, “I love awards, I’m greedy about awards. I just want to tell you it’s good to be back.”

On professional front, Srk made a phenomenal return to the big screen with his biggest success story last year.

The 58-year-old actor made a dramatic pivot, transitioning from romantic lead to rugged action hero.

This development follows a tumultuous period in the actor’s personal and professional life, including the highly publicized arrest of his son, Aryan Khan.

Shah Rukh is currently gearing up for his upcoming film King, which is slated to release in 2026.

Brad Pitt and Ines de Ramon are fully committed over their goal to start a family very soon.

The lovebirds, who have been dating since the end of 2022, are quickly taking their relationship to the next level, especially after they made their red carpet debut as a couple at the Venice Film Festival earlier this month.

The Fight Club actor has put having children with his girlfriend as a priority and that is his “full focus outside of work,” an insider revealed to In Touch Weekly.

The source also noted that the 60-year-old star has even decided the number of kids he wants to have with his jewellery designer girlfriend.

“The fact is, Brad wants two, maybe three kids with Ines and he would do adoption again in a heartbeat if that’s something she wanted too.”

Pitt shares six children with ex Angelina Jolie but has a fractured relationship with them, following a domestic abuse case, which was filed against him in 2016 by Jolie.

The actor is “heartbroken” over the estrangement from his kids and knows having children will not repair his relationship. However, he hopes that a baby will bring him joy.

De Ramon and Pitt recently enjoyed a European vacation which allowed them some one-on-one time and now have their “fingers and toes crossed that they’ll have good news to share very soon.”

“The sooner the better,” the source said, adding “if having a baby doesn’t happen naturally Brad has said IVF is an option.”

“Brad has no qualms about becoming a dad again so late in life. For one thing, his health is in great shape and he’s got just as much energy as he’s ever had,” the source continued. “He really does feel decades younger than his age.”

Prince Harry, who is a special guest for the WellChild Awards, on Monday received a warm welcome from the charity as he returned to the UK.

The Duke of Sussex, who has been a patron of the charity for the past 16 years, was given shoutout as the main event is set to take place in the evening.

“Today is the day of the #WellChildAwards, in association with @GSK,” the social media post by the charity read, accompanied by a video of the winners. “We are very excited to welcome our winners and guests later!”

Previously, in a statement issued by King Charles’ younger son revealed that the charity is one of the few causes he has kept since stepping back from his role as a full-working member of the royal family in January 2020.

He told People Magazine that he is “honoured” to celebrate the “remarkable courage and achievements of children living with complex medical needs.”

Prince Harry continued, “These incredible young people, along with the dedicated caregivers, nurses, and professionals who tirelessly support them, inspire us all. It is a true privilege to recognize such extraordinary individuals.”

At the time, the spokesperson for Prince Harry could not confirm any more engagements which the royal may attend to during his stay in the UK.

King Charles has been urged to look after his health during his much-awaited tour to Australia. 

For the unversed, the monarch will head to Australia and Samoa with his wife Queen Camilla to perform important engagements in October.

Notably, it will be Charles’s first foreign tour since his cancer diagnosis in February 2024. 

Now, speaking of the possible difficulties the King will face during his visit, royal commentator Jennie Bond told GB that she hopes the monarch can continue to do great work in his reign and get through the cancer treatment.

She said, “He is off to Australia in about three weeks with Camilla, that’s going to be quite testing, but he is back on the world scene so that’s good news.”

It is important to note that Buckingham Palace announced in February that King Charles was diagnosed with an undisclosed form of cancer, leaving the royal fans worried about the future of the monarchy. 

Previously, Daily Mail claimed that the King’s “health has to remain the number one priority, albeit heading in a very positive trajectory.”

The source added, “Of course it’s been a stressful year for Her Majesty, too, but there was never a sense of despondency, only a determination that they would get through this, as with so many other challenging issues in the past.”
