The new ad from Zomato, which is completely in monochrome, features some new footage of Shah Rukh sitting on a throne under a chandelier as TV sets around him play scenes from his iconic films. Some behind-the-scenes footage of the shoot is also included in the ad. At one point in the ad, Shah Rukh pumps iron and shows off his physique.

In another, he can be seen performing his own stunts for some of his old films, including smashing his head into glass. A clip from one of his old interviews sees him say, “There needs to be nothing unique about you. If you work hard, that’s unique in itself.” Footage of him blowing kisses to fans lined up at his home, Mannat, is also included in the ad that comes with the caption, “Hunger can take you places.”
