Tom Hiddleston as Loki has garnered a lot of fans with his work in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, aka MCU, but the actor is quite charmed by the King Khan of Bollywood.

Tom left his fans in speculations after the finale episode of Loki Season 2, as many are guessing that this is his last outing in the role of God of Mischief, aka God of Stories now. He appeared in character in 2011’s Thor as the main antagonist, and he continued his villainous role in 2012’s The Avengers, but eventually, he turned out to be a hero and a savior. The actor has millions of fans worldwide but is a fan of the ‘global’ star, SRK.
In 2021, Tom Hiddleston spoke to NCTV’s Rohit Khilnani while promoting Loki Season 1. In that interview, The Night Manager star praised Shah Rukh Khan and Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s masterpiece Devdas. He revealed that he went to see the film in a local theatre. He said, “I remember going to see that at my local cinema, and it was such an extraordinary. I would say I have never seen anything like that. So, yeah, I remember that very much.” he further tried to imitate the iconic SRK pose while sitting and connected that to his MCU character saying “Loki kind of does that too.”
