Superstar
Shahrukh
Khan
seems
to
surprise
all
for
his
secret
bonding
with
Kolkata's
cinema
and
culture.
SRK
stated
that
Kolkata
produces
the
best
of
Indian
cinema
and
is
the
country's
cultural
and
literary
hub.
Kolkata
is
always
known
for
its
rich
culture
and
heritage.
Despite
of
new,
high
multi-storeyed
buildings
and
industrial
sectors,
Kolkata
have
still
sustained
its
age-old
rich
background
of
arts
and
literature.
"I
really
believe
in
the
cinema
of
Bengal.
We
have
some
of
the
best
cinema
coming
in
from
this
part
of
the
country," he
said.
Shahrukh,
who
came
for
the
inauguration
of
the
Kolkata
Film
Festival
expresses
his
passion
towards
Bengali
language
and
books.
"At
a
personal
level,
I
have
been
visiting
Kolkata
regularly
for
the
last
4-5
years.
Now
I
am
even
trying
to
learn
its
language
and
read
more
books
from
here,"
he
said.
He
said,
"I
believe
that
the
history
of
our
arts,
literature,
poetry
and
films
cannot
be
written,
or
ever
begin
without
the
state
of
West
Bengal."
