Om Shanti Om, starring Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone, is one of the most loved Bollywood movies of all time. Today, November 9, 2024, the film completes 17 years since its release.

King Khan flaunted his six-pack abs in the song Dard-E-Disco. Farah also mentioned during the conversation that they would count his abs every week.
