For Shah Rukh's Met Gala appearance, ace designer Sabysachi created a black floor-length elongated coat in Tasmanian superfine wool with monogrammed, Japanese horn buttons. The coat is hand canvassed, single-breasted with a peak collar and wide lapels. Paired with a crepe de chine silk shirt and tailored superfine wool trousers.

A pleated satin kamarbandh completed this bespoke look. SRK layered the outfit with a custom stack and complemented with The Bengal Tiger Head Cane crafted in 18k gold with tourmalines, sapphires, old mine cut and brilliant cut diamonds.

SRK's close friend and filmmaker Karan Johar was among the first Bollywood celebrities to react to SRK's grand debut at the biggest fashion event."ALLL HAIL the KING of the MET. The internet just broke into a gazillion hearts!!!!! @iamsrk .... bhai you RULE! (sic)," Karan wrote on his Instagram stories.

On collaborating with SRK, Sabyasachi said, "Shah Rukh Khan is one of the greatest superstars in the world. A cinematic hero, his blockbuster performances and leading-man charisma have created a legendary international fan following. My interpretation of the Black Dandy is demonstrating his super stardom on a global stage. Dressed in classic menswear with the maximalist flourish of Sabyasachi, Shah Rukh Khan is a magician, superstar, and icon. Period."

This year, Diljit Dosanjh and Kiara Advani also debuted at the Met Gala.

SRK proves yet again why he's the King of Hearts! That Bengal Tiger cane was 🔥. So proud to see our Indian superstar owning the Met Gala stage. Sabyasachi's design was classy yet powerful - just like SRK himself!

While I love SRK, I wish he had incorporated more Indian elements in his outfit. The kamarbandh was nice but felt a bit too subtle. Still, our Badshah looked dashing as always! ❤️

Bhai sabse badi baat yeh hai ki SRK ne apni simplicity kabhi nahi khoi. "Style is just being who you are" - this line shows why we love him. Western events mein bhi apna Indianness maintain kiya!

That tiger cane was everything! 🐅 So symbolic of SRK's personality - royal, powerful yet graceful. Sabyasachi nailed it with this collaboration. More Indian designers should get global recognition like this!

Honestly, I expected more drama from SRK's Met Gala debut. It was elegant no doubt, but compared to some past Indian appearances (like Priyanka's), it felt a bit safe. Still, the man carries any outfit with his charm!

The humility in his message though! "It's not my space" - typical SRK style. Even after 30+ years of stardom, he remains grounded. That's why he'll always be our King Khan 👑 #SRKAtMetGala
