Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan has said meeting Malala Yousafzai will be a privilege.
The King of Bollywood’s comment came in response to a tweet by the Nobel laureate who invited SRK to a talk at Oxford University where she is currently studying.
Principal of Oxford University Alan Rusbridger had initially invited SRK to talk to the students at the prestigious varsity in November 2016.
“Can we tempt to Oxford University to talk to our students at Lady Margaret Hall? They love you (I’m the principal),” Rusbridger tweeted to the Bollywood superstar.
Quoting Rusbridger’s tweet, Malala wrote to SRK saying, “Still waiting!!!!”
