French Ambassador To India Emmanuel Lenain Urges Shah Rukh Khan To Shoot His New Film In France, Says ‘Tried To Convince Him…’

The NMACC launch gala held over the weekend became the talk of the town as both Bollywood and Hollywood celebrities graced the event in style. From Gigi Hadid to Suhana Khan, the event saw a host of A-listers walk the red carpet in stunning outfits. The gala also witnessed the presence of French Ambassador Emmanuel Lenain, who met with Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan at the event.

Emmanuel Lenain took to his Twitter handle to share a picture of himself with the Bollywood icon, expressing his desire to see more Bollywood movies being shot in France. He wrote, “Tried to convince him to come and shoot again in France. French people would love to see more of Bollywood! @iamsrk.”

Shah Rukh Khan is no stranger to France, having received the Knight of the Legion of Honor award in 2014 for his outstanding contribution to cultural diversity across the world. Only a handful of actors like Sivaji Ganesan, Kamal Haasan, and Soumitra Chatterjee have received this prestigious award.

Meanwhile, Shah Rukh made his comeback to the big screen after four years with the action film Pathaan. The movie directed by Siddharth Anand starred Deepika Padukone and John Abraham and became the highest-grossing Hindi film of all time, grossing over ₹1,050 crore at the global box office. The film was shot in several locations, including Dubai, Lebanon, Morocco, Spain, and Afghanistan.

Overall, the NMACC launch gala was an opulent and memorable affair, and with the French Ambassador expressing his desire for more Bollywood movies to be shot in France, it may just be the start of a beautiful partnership between Bollywood and France.
