[tps_footer]The Baadshah of Bollywood, Shah Rukh Khan got so nostalgic while seeing the raw footage of a documentary film made on his IPL team – Kolkata Knight Riders that he could not stop crying.
The documentary titled Living With KKR, will trace the graph of the team, which initially failed to impress with its performance in the first four seasons. It was only in 2012 that Kolkata Knight Riders managed to bounce back and became champions of the cash-rich T20 league beating Chennai Super Kings.
“It looks very nice. I got emotional and it made me cry. I want to thank my team Kolkata Knight Riders and everyone associated with it. It is not a PR or marketing tool. We had a great learning experience. I am glad we made interesting journey for people. Youngsters to look at us,” stated a very emotional Shah Rukh Khan.
Shah Rukh says the learning lesson throughout their entire journey was to stick to your goals and dreams, working hard.
“I think winning does matter. It does make a difference and it makes you feel stronger. If you win then a documentary will be made on you. So I would say one must go and win,” he said remembering how his team has grown over the years.
Living With KKR will have the voiceover of Shah Rukh Khan talking about the journey, his love for Kolkata, his equation with Sourav Ganguly, the first captain of the team, other players and how the team emerged a winner after a shaky start.
“It is tough to make films than this. I want to make my team more strong and passionate. I did feel sad when we lost nine matches in a row but I never showed my anger or scolded n the players or anyone. As I did feel that the players too were disappointed not winning the match. They did not lose any match purposely,” stated Shah Rukh.
Living With KKR will air from February 24, 2104 to February 27, 2104 on Discovery Channel.[/tps_footer]
