Shah Rukh Khan’s words found him at a time when he needed them the most, says former WWE champion and American actor John Cena

Shah Rukh Khan’s words found him at a time when he needed them the most, which is why meeting the superstar in person at Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s wedding felt like a “perfect end” to a wonderful trip to India, says former WWE champion and American actor John Cena. “Right at the end of my stay, I was able to meet Shah Rukh Khan on the way out. He’s someone whose words—I was able to tell him this in person—found me at a time when I needed them [the most] in my life,” he said. Cena, 47, said it was important to shake Khan’s hand and share with him the positive impact the Indian actor has had on
his life. “He couldn’t have been nicer, and more empathetic. It was the perfect end to a wonderful trip,” he recalled.
