An Indian cricketer who is named after actor Shah Rukh Khan says he would rather meet Salman Khan than his namesake. The player, whose name is linked to Shah Rukh Khan, indicates a preference for meeting Salman Khan.

Both accounts note that the cricketer has had opportunities during his IPL career to meet Shah Rukh Khan, particularly in matches involving Kolkata Knight Riders, where Shah Rukh Khan is associated as an owner. Despite these prior chances, the player expresses a wish to meet Salman Khan instead.

The two outlets describe the same basic storyline: the player’s name connection to Shah Rukh Khan, the context of IPL encounters with the actor, and the player’s preference shift toward meeting Salman Khan. Neither source provides additional details beyond the player’s stated desire and the IPL match context.
